It's not just teabaggers that watch fox. It's on everywhere. In car repair shops, doctors and dentist offices etc. Lots of people at home switch around the news stations and settle on fox temporarily, they aren't all right wing nutjobs. Doesn't the military limit the choice to fox in iraq and elsewhere.
Get the message out there.
