Let's have some fun with numbers, shall we?
Total Combined Viewers (for these time slots)
FNC 10,273,000
CNN 4,847,000
MSNBC 1,605,000
That means that FNC is beating both CNN and MSNBC combined.
FNC 10,273,000
CNN/MSNBC 6,452,000
For a difference of:
3,821,000
From a total of 16,725,000 viewers the percentages break down like this:
FNC 61.4%
CNN/MSNBC 38.6%
Now, how's that for a poll?
In political terms, it is a landslide. FNC beats both liberal biased networks combined and almost by a 2:1 margin. The real masses have spoken. And the masses in this instance, are the consumers.
And you want to know what the kicker in all of this is?
CNNHN Grace was an extra show counting in those numbers. Count them, CNN gets credit for six and FNC gets five. That and, MSNBC is so weak, those are the only four shows, they are willing to lose money on.
