Fox News Remains Ratings Champ As 2013 Comes to Close , drawing more viewers than the combined averages of CNN, MSNBC and HLN.
December 16, 2013 | 03:01PM PT It and rivals CNN, MSNBC down from last year http://variety.com/2013...# Fox News Channel maintained its grip on the cable-news network ratings prize in 2013, drawing more viewers than the combined averages of CNN, MSNBC and HLN.
It was a down year in terms of overall audience, as every newsie but HLN showed primetime declines from their Presidential Election-driven tallies of 2012.

One needs to only read the New Testament to see the problem that has been created over the last two centuries within the churches.

Of course when these ratings are brought up it's always late evening, when people are looking for entertainment, not news.
Last I checked Faux News keeps losing when it comes to the Sunday morning time slot, the time long-reserved for current events shows like Meet the Press. But the network news has become an embarrassment as well.
Nearly all of our media has turned into a part of Idiocracy. It's like they combined the Jerry Springer show with American Gladiators, and then claim it must be the best because people tune in.

Once again, Breeze is speaking beyond his competence, asserting the notion that FAUXNews' ratings equate with some sort of conservative majority opinion in American politics. The last two major elections would tend to dispute that.
People would tune in in droves to Honey-Boo-Boo doing the "news," if there was enough hate and vitriol involved.

But, 3/4 of 1% of Americans watch Fox news. That must mean that this is a conservative country.

Conservatives think you're either with that 1%, and you have a shot at joining their ranks, or you're some slovenly welfare recipient, buying Mountain Dew and Cheetos on your EBT card.

And the Kochs and Trumps laugh while the middle class cannibalizes itself on Grover Norquist talking points.

People are so easily misled by numbers. I was getting gas today at an SA gas station today, guess what news was on the pump. Fox news, how may pumps does SA have across the map? Some bars have it on just for the humor. It's kind of like having Saturday Night Live on.
