The other takeaway from this woman's instructions from the FBI to watch FoxNews is that one must watch FoxNews to get certain news because it will not be shown anywhere else.
The ACORN scandal and its lack of coverage by other media just reinforced Fox viewers' belief that they have to watch Fox to get the entire story (or, in this case, the story at all). Other media can blame themselves for that.
