As I noted with data in my other post, 99% of households vote with the remote by tuning out cable news completely.

Pretty resounding verdict.

Not to mention that the broadcast network news audience is TEN TIMES larger than the cable junkies.

Another verdict.

If people vote with their remote then it maybe it does mean that Fox is more fair and balanced than MSNBC and CNN.

OK.You believe that popularity is the measure of fair and balanced.

Whatever.

Or it could mean that the people who watch Fox are looking for confirmation of their world view, and they get it there. I think that's a more likely explanation.
