<span>Beatty tells Montag that the decline of books started around the Civil War. People became more interested in gossip and television, and books were condensed. Also, since some authors argued about the Civil War and had different opinions, there was conflict, and it was thought that in order to get rid of that conflict, it would be better to do away with the books. My reaction is that people became more interested in human interest and short ways to get news and entertainment instead of reading a thought-provoking book. It seemed that people didn't want to involve themselves in any of the difficult decisions anymore, they would rather push it to the back of their minds and enjoy the entertainment of television instead of going through the work of reading a book.</span>

Think about the character of Rainsford. Which character in the story is his foil? Whitney Ivan General Zaroff
Hatshy [7]
A foil is the near complete opposite of the main character (whichever character they want you to find a foil for).

Rainsford and Whitney were good hunting friends with numerous similar interests. They could not be foils because of how close in similarity they were. Even when they disagreed on how animals felt about being hunted, Whitney seemed open to and intrigued by Rainsford's points and way of thinking. 

Ivan is a near irrelevant character, being a mere Cossack who follows whatever General Zaroff says. He is mindless and has almost zero traits to even compare to Rainsford, let alone any traits aside from a mindless follower to begin with.

The answer would be General Zaroff. This is almost like the cliche protagonist vs antagonist foil. Both of them are hunters, but different kinds. Zaroff got bored with animals and wanted to hunt human people instead, whereas Rainsford had enjoyed the thrill of an animal hunt and thinks that the hunting of people is murder. Zaroff is more heartless and cold, a killer, if you will. Rainsford seems to think highly of actual people, and had no interest in playing Zaroff's game.
