Yes, exactly. That's what makes it all so disconcerting/depressing. They think it's independent minds cutting through all the malarkey out there.

As an example, my girlfriend was int he car with her mom who was actually listing to O'Reilly. My gf responded point by point to some of O'Reilly's stuff. Her mom castigated her for being "political" -- yet the MOM was listening to the show. It's not "political" if it's O'Reilly -- but if it's critical of him, you're being "political," which seems to be a bad thing.
