Just for the record...

Hitler was never actually elected to run Germany.

It was a parliamentary system.

There were problems in building a ruling coalition.

In a revote, the Nazis actually lost votes.

Hitler was appointed Chancellor after a series of political fiascos.

Hitler never won a "popular election."

<SNIP>

Ted Turner called Fox a propaganda tool of the Bush administration and indirectly compared Fox News Channel's popularity to Adolf Hitler's popular election to run Germany before World War II.
