Here is an excerpt from a study to see if biased news had any lasting effects in regard to Europe and the European Union:

“But the "time bomb" of biased news was more effective than the exposure to symbols in manipulating members of the "vastly cynical European public," Bruter said.

"It shows that even the most 'unbelievable' propaganda may have an effect over time and that the most fallacious and baseless rumors, for instance, may shape opinion to an extent"

Here is the article from which the above came: http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/143831 and it contains links to its sources. Facts and foundations for stated opinions.

This is why FOX "News" is so dangerous. The study above was conclusive when people were exposed to only BI-WEEKLY 4-page newsletters ………… imagine how people can be impacted by the 24 hour/7day a week vitriol spouted by FOX.
