Fox News Using Subliminal Advertising for McCain

The concept of subliminal messaging is not new. For decades, advertisers have used subliminal messages in order to influence consumers' purchasing decisions. Although it's not clear whether or not subliminal messages increase profits of the companies that employ them, but one thing is for sure. They do have an effect on the brain, similar to overt messages.

It seems that someone at Fox News is utilizing this method in order to get their preferred candidate elected. As if the spin doctors they have on staff aren't enough, they want to affect their viewers' subconscious minds. Recently a Fox News production assistant was fired for overtly supporting McCain over the other candidates, presumably to quell the notion that Fox News is biased. I'm not convinced, especially after seeing this video.

I might have agreed with Mr. Murdoch 8 years ago. McCain would have made a much better president than George W. Bush (then again, so would a broom with an upturned bucket for a head.) Unfortunately he has shown time and time again how important his lust for power is over his principles.
