Forgetting what political peruasion blah.... looking at Fox reminds me of sitting in a basement for months watching the product of almost every propaganda machine during the 20th century.

The mechanisms don't change, - the images are in color, copy writing is nothing new, assertions of being on the righteous side remain the same - and all appeal to mass fears and hopes and working towards a "learned" consensus in the masses.

Fox is probably *the* news channel in the Western World that can be used as a training sample (tho a poor one) for media people into how propaganda works and what buttons to press to manipulate folks.
