Fox News Numbers Growing Stronger...

In the month of August, Fox News Channel scored its highest ratings to date according to Nielsen Media Research. Fox beat the competition again in prime time - with 11 of the 12 top shows in cable news and continues to pull viewership away from CNN and MSNBC in the industries most coveted audience.

"In the news demographic of adults 25-54, Fox News ruled again, with 541,000 viewers, up 12%, while CNN lost 9% to 236,000 and MSNBC was mostly flat at 145,000. Headline News averaged 160,000, up 111.%"
Those of us who watch it know why. Because on FNC you'll get the whole story and hear from both sides of the issues.

Of course, the Franken crowd will undoubtably point to this as further evidence that the "evil liars" at Fox are fooling even more of the unwashed masses with their GOP propaganda. The screeds should be coming shortly.

1 Liberals always claim that Fox News is too far to the right. I see where they get this. If you compare the media's left bias right now, you'd have to go to the right pretty far just to get to the middle. So, you could say Fox leans to the right, not to the right of the center, just to the right of the left.

2 Excellent way of putting it, Ace.
