Fox News is trouncing the competition


iconI cannot help but be giddy over the news that nobody is watching MSNBC any more. IMDb reports that the cable channel's ratings have hit an all time low.

[The founding president of CNN, Reese] Schonfeld observed that the market share among the four primary news channels in primetime last week stacked up this way: FoxNews: 54.2 percent; CNN: 29.2 percent; CNN Headline News: 8.5 percent; MSNBC: 8.1 percent. "Never before has MSNBC [placed] fourth."
More people are watching the half hour headline news loops over and over again than the mind numbingly liberal MSNBC. What is most amazing about the ratings, is that Fox News isn't even available to nearly as many viewers as CNN is. Plus, on many cable dials, you have hunt for it.

Meanwhile, CNN fans like Jack Cluth get notoriously defensive when it comes to Fox News and the ratings war.

Boo hoo.
