I often see it in my relatives who don't trust the media yet still look to the media to validate any non-mainstream topic.

"You can't trust anything the media tells you, bunch of lying vultures. They'll say anything to push a leftist agenda."
*compulsively reaches for the remote and flips on ABC news*
TONIGHT! BREAKING NEWS! BOMBSHELL! ORANGE MAN BAD!
"Uh, why are you watching this crap?"
"Well I gotta know what's going on, don't I?!"
Fucking idiot knows the media lies, knows that they push Democrat propaganda, but for some reason still thinks he's informing himself by watching them. I've long since given up trying to point out his retardation.
