They are used to being spoon fed their news from sources who's greater interest is not the truth, but an ideology.

Perhaps the fact that Fox News won a court case in FLA for their right to distort and present false news.
Would you trust a news source that distorts news?
EDIT:
No J Galt I did answer the question. Just because you don't like factual information doesn't mean you can reject the truth.
Why won't people read an article from Fox News?
Because they know they distort. I won't read their bs. Why bother?

As any psychologist will tell you, denial is a strong defense mechanism. Refusing to watch FOX or listen to Limbaugh is a typical leftist response when confronted with facts and truth. The shame of it is not that they are ignorant now, but that they steadfastly insist on remaining ignorant. That weak position in intellectual life enables hucksters like Hillary, Nancy and Reid to to fool millions into thinking that they have answers for America. It's a case of the ignorant supporting the dishonest.

I used to trust both CNN, MSNBC, ABC and Foxnews till the internet got mainstream and you don't see the whole picture anymore. It seems like amateur videos and amateur reporters are telling a better story or rather a none partisan picture of the story.
It is an unfortunate truth but all 4 major news stations munipulate the news for someone's elses agenda it seems.

No not ignorant. Just prefer to stay away from Fox News. As far as I know I'm still allowed to get my news wherever I desire.

The same reason nobody pays any attention to Jessy Jackson. Their track record on the truth is so bad that you just write them off after awhile.
Why would that be so hard to understand?

If you saw the debate last night and still think Fox news is a legitimate news source, you will never understand.
