I think I vaguely remember that study. They came to the conclusion that if you don't like it you're a bigot, but they couldn't show correlation = causation in the same study. They just really hoped you wouldn't notice because of the bigotry they really want you to have.
Similar reasoning leads them to think that making leftist content will turn us all into leftists:
They point to other research that suggests exposure to more diverse casts can actually reduce prejudice: for instance, one study found that people who often watched Will and Grace reported lower levels of prejudice towards gay men. Diverse casts, therefore, may actually help shift people's views.
It never occurs to them that maybe Will and Grace attracted a fag-friendly audience. No, it must be that watching the show makes you like fags.
or maybe it was the fact that will and grace, for all of its flaws, was better at humanizing homosexuals than the current trough of pigslop they're trying to shovel down our throats that holds them up on some unattainable pedestal of perfection, even though anyone with two brain cells to rub together can see that the characters are sociopathic mary sues...
Leftist media presents an idealized but completely inaccurate view of the reality of many of these groups.
So someone whose entire exposure to gays is through shows like Will and Grace will have a positive view of them because they look fine. Whereas someone who actually lives around a few gays will see how degenerate they are and react accordingly.
what I mean is, will and grace showed them as human beings, flawed and imperfect. modern shows have a severe problem as presenting them as the creator's idea of "perfect," which usually means an idealized version of themselves, aka, a mary sue.

Well there is the other side of the coin.
