So much information, so little knowledge
A recent Pew Research study finds that more than 30% of Americans can't name the vice president and 64% can't name the president of Russia. Wow.
The best part:
[T]he survey respondents who seemed to know the most about what’s going on — who were able to identify major public figures, for example — were likely to be viewers of fake news programs like Jon Stewart’s “The Daily Show” and “The Colbert Report”; those who knew the least watched network morning news programs, Fox News or local television news.
In better news, another Pew study says more rich people now say they're Democrats.
