I disagree - I'm not saying the majority of Americans share these specific views, but I do think millions (15-20% maybe?) do.

The rest of the world is exposed to vast and disproportionate amounts of US media (although I do think that trend is reversing thanks to the Internet) and we get to sample many flavours of America - some nice, and some not so nice. I think this Fox view point is on shared by many.

That is their right - no one should ever repress opinion. But it reflects very poorly on the US as a whole, rightly or wrongly.
