This is like people that didn't vote for Brown because of Coakley's inaccurate tv ads. One person said to me, "How could you vote for Brown? He doesn't want rape victims to get the morning after pill." People see/hear/read something from one of their "trusted sources" (read: people that complain about the same folks I do) and they accept it as gospel.

People should carry over "Just because you see it on tv, doesn't mean it's true" to the internet and radio.

I'm sure you are. I'd figure you of all people would be surprised that not everything you see on tv or hear on the radio is true.
