appearances are effective insofar as people react to them -- how differently would people remember this if media said the opposite?

Most Americans think that they won the war against Hitler (and not the Soviet Union), that they didn't start the Vietnam and Afghan war, or that Putin stole the elections. I wouldn't call people idiots, but media spin generally works.

That's my point. People believe what they're motivated to. It isn't spin, it is people. The spin follows rather than leadsvthe prejudices. Here, conservatives *want* to believe liberals are unpatriotic.
