I'm increasingly of the opinion that old people who become more hateful and bigoted from watching Fox News were always that way. They just hid it much better. Prolonged exposure to right wing media just made them feel comfortable more openly expressing their bigotry and racism.1/

People who aren't already bigoted and racist, however, are highly unlikely to become so because of prolonged exposure to right wing media. There has to be fertile soil for the seeds planted by Hannity, etc., to grow. 3/3

In fact, people who aren't already bigoted and racist aren't likely to willingly consume right wing media. They might bet forced to hear it at work or something, but they don't choose it. There is thus likely to be a large element of self-selection going on. 3a/3
