"The survey, titled “Political Polarization & Media Habits,” found that conservatives are more unified around Fox, with 47 percent calling it their main source of news about government and policy. They express greater distrust of media, though 88 percent trust Fox. And either with friends or on Facebook, they prefer those with similar political views.
Liberals are less focused on one news source and trust the media more than distrust it. They are more likely than conservatives to “defriend” or block “someone on a social network — as well as to end a personal relationship — because of politics,” said Pew."
I don't find this surprising at all. I have been defriended by several people because I won't toe their "Ideological" line.
And when I've pointed out their own hypocrisy on certain issues I was attacked and defriended.
That is NOT how you have an open dialog.
