Don't see consensus on global warming? Look past Fox News
The more people watch Fox News, the less informed they are -

"The study found that the more people watched Fox News, the less informed they became. Here are some of the questions asked to see if someone was misinformed:

» Was the TARP bank bailout made under President Bush or Obama? (Bush.)
» Was the bailout of GM and Chrysler initiated under Bush or Obama? (Bush.)
» Was it proven the U.S. Chamber of Commerce used secretive foreign donations to support Republican candidates? (No.)
» Did people’s federal taxes go up, down or stay the same in 2009? (Down.)
» Do most scientists agree that global warming is happening? (Yes.)"
