LOL. Left wing hate radio was tried and failed everywhere but in black markets and state-supported NPR.

Little Elian exacts revenge on Clinton/Reno/Castro axis: Elian's Attorney Elected Miami Mayor By ADRIAN SAINZ, Associated Press Writer MIAMI (AP) - Manny Diaz, a political upstart who represented the Miami relatives of Elian Gonzalez, defeated a former six-term mayor in a runoff Tuesday to lead the city for the next four years.... ...The runoff was seen as a referendum on how Miami's government handled the Elian case. Ferre was drawing support from a coalition of non-Cuban-Americans, while Diaz was backed by many Cuban-Americans. The issue fueled political sniping between Ferre and Diaz during the past week after a first-round mayoral campaign that had been called one of the cleanest in recent Miami history. Ferre accused Diaz of running a campaign based on ``ethnic divisiveness.'' Ferre claimed Diaz's campaign was behind phone calls to Miami radio stations and voters charging Ferre is anti-Cuban and backs former Attorney General Janet Reno (news - web sites) for governor. Reno was widely criticized by some Cuban-Americans for ordering the raid that led to the boy being returned to Cuba. Ferre denies supporting Reno because of his ``respect for the Cuban-American community.''.... dailynews.yahoo.com

Fox defeated CNN in homes for week Network's first primetime ratings win since Sept. 11 By Jon Friedman, CBS.MarketWatch.com Last Update: 10:29 AM ET Nov. 14, 2001 NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- The Fox News Channel last week surpassed CNN in households during primetime for the first time since the Sept. 11 attacks on America two months ago. Fox News (FOX: news, chart, profile) averaged 1 million households in primetime, edging CNN's 931,000, Reuters noted. The result is compelling because CNN is available in 11 million more homes than Fox News. Further, CNN has been regarded as the prime viewing spot for people who want to follow the breaking news of the day -- and there has been no shortage of that during the past two months. Stunned by the terrorists' attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on Sept. 11, Americans avidly watched television news. In an unprecedented act, the major networks went so far as to suspend regular entertainment programming -- and even the commercials that had been scheduled and paid for -- to show news for four consecutive days. Five Fox News programs, such as President Bush's Nov. 8 address to the nation and "The O'Reilly Factor," were represented among the leading 50 basic cable advertising-supported shows. CNN was included only for its airing of a stolen truck slow chase in Texas on Nov. 7... cbs.marketwatch.com
