Right-Wing News

A recent study revealed Fox "News" viewers are less informed than people who consume no news at all.  On it's face it seems blatantly obvious, but today I saw a perfect example of the right-wing news consumer.  A woman commented on a blog about the occupy movement and she accurately made some comments about the unfortunate corporate clime.  The right-wing news consumer replied with this statement:

Obviously you missed the part of your American History class where they mention how the entire woman's suffrage movement was sponsored by Tampax.

I have a problem with this.  My problem with his statement is:

• The 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified on August 18, 1920.
• Tampax was introduced in 1936

I'm thinking the Procter & Gamble did not have a time machine available to them to go back in time as part of some amazing marketing campaign to attract female consumers.

Before you say, yes but Becca Procter & Gamble has been around since 1837, let me assure you that I already know that and that causes me even more concern about the comment from this right-wing consumer of news.Has he been told by Fox "News" that Tampax funded the women's suffrage movement? Does he know that the Tampax product was not a sponsor of women's suffrage movement but that possibly Procter & Gamble was? If so was his comment intentionally misogynistic?

These people embrace their ignorance and do not hide their bigotry. The political clime in the country has gone rapidly downhill.
