According to a new poll (PDF) from Fairleigh Dickinson University, if you watch Fox News you are significantly less likely to know the correct answer to that question than if you mostly avoid news shows and newspapers all together.
After controlling for factors like partisanship, education, and other demographic factors, the pollsters found that Fox New viewers were 18 points less likely to know that the revolt was successful than their non-active news consuming counterparts. Fox News viewers were also 6 points less likely to know that the Syrian uprising has yet to succeed.

Laughable... The left wing's twisted obsession with Fox news they just can't handle not having full control over the American media news filter.
Less brain washed
Not laughable, whats laughable is that joke of a news channel called Fox news...
also CNN is pretty laughable as well.
that is no surprise
Fox is the home shopping network for the ill informed looking for a party line that fits in their color
