You claim that this is a center right country
Actually, I don't think I've ever made that claim at all.
Of course you have......repeatedly.
That doesn't make any sense. Why would people watch the MSM in the numbers they do if they are center right people and MSM is left?
You should keep in mind that when given a choice, people choose Fox. That is, Fox outperforms all cable news. In broadcast news, they have no real opportunity to choose anything but leftwing news.
Uh......Fox is an network just like CBS and NBC. Why have they never introduced channel style Fox News to the networks? Why is Fox business such an absymal failure?
As for FNC, you have claimed for years that it is center right.
That is correct. And it is.
If so, its viewership should be off the charts.
It IS off the charts. They outperform the other cable news outlets combined. Duh.
No, it is not......when you total up viewership on the just the cable channels....they are almost equal......Fox News is slightly ahead. These numbers are a year old but they haven't changed that much in the past year. I picked Wednesday to compare O Rielly and Hannity with Olbermann and Maddow in the 8-9 PM slot. O and H had 1.9 viewers; O and M had 1.7. And this comparison excludes CNN. I am not sure why you think Fox News is so far out ahead of the competition. They are not:
Olbermann: 1,081 (MSNBC) Maddow: 964 (MSNBC)
O'Reilly: 938 (Fox) Hannity & Colmes: 899 (Fox)
Brown: 560 (CNN) King: 517 (CNN)
Grace: 609 (HLN) Dobbs: 167 (HLN)

Most Americans should be watching it since you have said repeatedly this is a center right country. And yet..........
While FNC has consistently outperformed other outlets, the reality is that almost all of the MSM has the liberal bias, and it is insidious like all good propaganda. "Most Americans", like yourself, have no idea that they're getting indoctrinated by a liberal media.
LOL. Americans are not that stupid. If they are hearing something they don't like, they turn the channel.......like I do with Fox News. ;-)
You apparently don't watch news, but Rich Sanchez is a great example. He is a freaking expert at underhanded bashes on the Bush administration, and most people watching him would NOT EVEN KNOW it was happening. It is almost subliminal, unless you know what you're looking for.
I told you to see someone about your paranoia. Truth is prior to your complaints about Sanchez I thought he was a Cuban conservative out of S. FLA. |
