You pull this month after month, year after year.
And it is BULLSHIT. You guys are either
suckers or assume we are!
This is like reporting on CAR SALES and only reporting the statistics on AMERICAN MADE CARS. Who cares about all those Hondas and Toyotas?
Seriously, does anyone/everyone realize that even
OLD FASHIONED network, 630PM CBS broadcast news has 4-5 MILLION viewers, which is DOUBLE the best time slot on FOX?? Add the 3 networks together and you get about
13 million viewers. (I think ABC has been leading lately with among the networks). And YES, network news is
decreasing!
IDIOTS!
LIARS!
(Well according to this, I'm wrong--the number of viewers is MUCH higher)

Network TV news – appointment viewing for more than 20 million Americans – has experienced relative stability in the size of its audience over the past decade. Financially, in recent years, the news programs of the three major networks – NBC, ABC and CBS – have generated growing revenue. Explore the patterns and longitudinal data about network TV news below.
There is a much better (and truthful) explanation.
The networks that do not slant their news are many so you have fewer viewers per network, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN. Those that are slanted to one side or the other are largely unique and get viewers that are ready, willing, and able to be spoon-fed exactly what they want to hear…such as yourself.
Its the reason Apple is desired…you cannot get their integrated technology and devices anywhere else.
Its the reason Facebook is a multi-billion dollar enterprise; no other platform allows you to do what it does.
When something is unique and gives you what you want…you have eyeballs, profit, etc… When you are Glad or Hefty, Shick or Gillette, Pepsi or Coke, you have multiple providers of essentially the same product and lesser dominance of any specific brand.
Fox does what it does very well. You’ve got to give them credit. MSNBC has the handicap of at least having to keep one foot in reality. Fox is pretty much fantasy land.
