Sometimes people lament the fragmentation of news sources. They long for the days when everyone just watched the same few networks. And yes. ABC news in 1987 was less extreme than Fox News is today in many ways... but I think we've blocked out a lot of the nonsense that *everyone* watched at took as gospel. For example that "crack babies" exist and were going to cause a crime wave. Really the whole way they reported on drugs... "The Gays" (exotic and disturbing people) DIVORCE and Single Moms.
