They only deduced a clever means to exploit the divide in the country and use it to their advantage. The divide has been there for a very, very long time if not since the founding of the nation in various forms. Had Fox and it's AM Talk Radio sidekick used their abilities to bring people together and solve problems it could have been a force for good, but that would have been more difficult and more expensive.

Rush Limbaugh and his playmates are not interested in solving any problems, they are only interested in exploiting them to stir the pot, divide groups against one another, increase ratings and thereby ad revenues.
