Obama faults 'misinformation' from Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, blogs

CNN reports:
President Obama says "misinformation" fed by Fox News, Rush Limbaugh and right-wing web sites partly explains why the presidential race is such a nail-biter.

At a fundraiser in New York City, he cited political polarization and specifically called out the influence of conservative media.

"This should not be a close election, but it will be. And the reason it will be is not because of Hillary's flaws, but rather because, structurally, we've become a very polarized society," Obama said Sunday.

He continued, "If all you're doing is watching Fox News and listening to Rush Limbaugh and reading some of the blogs that are churning out a lot of misinformation on a regular basis, then it's very hard for you to think that you're going to vote for somebody who you've been told is taking the country in the wrong direction."
Strongman Obama voices his concerns to his wealthy friends.
