It seems that any news/talk radio or TV that DESTROYS its competitors does so because it is monitored by "wingnuts".

How's that work? Are there more "wingnuts" than other people? If so, why was Obama elected?

Something just doesn't make sense here, Al. FNC is, by a huge margin, the most watched news outlet. All "wingnuts", huh.


Uh......yes, its you who doesn't make any sense.....once again. There is one Fox news.....all the wingnuts watch that one cable channel. The rest of the world which is much bigger and more populated has many, many more options. Are you so partisan that you can't see that simple fact? Rush has only 13 million viewers......28% of Americans continued to support Bush to the end. That's your market segment......less than a third. They are the wingers in this country and as education spreads and the older ones die out, we hope to see that segment grow smaller over time.

Considerably less than half of the total viewership of news on cable goes to fox...the folks that watch it are right leaning folk. Sixty percent of these people believed that Saddam was involved in the 911 attack...they run around with very strange notions because...what do you expect? they watch fox...
