For the core fox watchers, yes.

But here's the real audience: every single restaurant and diner and bowling alley and gas station and mom and pop whatever in the south is blaring fox 24/7 and I'm sure she caught the attention and the ear of more than a few people who know almost nothing about politics.

and those people who know nothing decide how they vote based upon how their parents voted. I wouldn't hold my breath that they would suddenly posess the relevant critical thinking skills to evaluate who they're electing.
