What we always suspected about FoxNews viewers

Study: Fox ‘News’ viewers have an IQ that’s 20 points lower than the U.S. National average


Birmingham, Alabama (PRWEB) December 04, 2012 – The results of a 4 year study show that Americans who obtain their news from Fox News channel have an average IQ of 80, which represents a 20 point deficit when compared to the U.S. national average of 100. IQ, or intelligence quotient, is the international standard of assessing intelligence. <...>

“The study did not conclude if Fox News contributed to lowering IQ or if it attracts less intelligent humans.”

As for that last sentence: Couldn't FoxNews do both of those things?

Seems this particular study is a hoax (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/12/09...mericans), still, while this study is made up, there are other legitimate studies out there that back up this fake study!
