Uh, CBS/NBC/ABC are each way bigger than Fox. So by your logic, the country must be liberal.

Apples and oranges, no? Free broadcast tv vs. cable news. They are definitely #1 in cable news ratings. In fact you made me curious and I looked up ratings - they have more viewers that ALL the other cable news programs combined. http://tvbythenumbers.com/2010/10/22/cable-news-ratings-for-thursday-october-21-2010/69342

Totally right that the evening broadcast network news have bigger numbers: http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/evening-news-ratings-2009-2010-season_b23186

Cable news/opinion lineup by audience share.

Not really. FNC reaches 99 million households, 85% of the population. They only get a few million viewers. The big 3 only broadcast one half hour of news and they get about 22 million viewers.

So jack up the Fox news numbers by another 15% and it still sucks compared to any one of the big 3.

Its way more entertaining and professionally produced than any other cable news. The talent is superior too. Orielly, Susteren, Hannity, Rivera are top notch.

Yes, its entertainment value is high. It really should be compared to the Jon Stewart Show and the Colbert Report.

Which are definitely more entertaining, and probably fairer as well.
