Fox News Dominates Cable News Ratings
From www.politico.com ~ As MSNBC and CNN battle for second place, second-quarter Nielsen numbers show Fox News' programs now rank one through 10 in total viewers on cable news.
Since Obama came into office, Fox has continued not only winning, but doing so at unprecedented levels.
As the Hollywood Reporter noted last week, the network is having its"best year yet," with the competition in the ratings shifting from not only the news networks but all of basic cable. Indeed, Fox came in 3rd this quarter, behind only USA and TNT.
Across the board, already top-rated shows are up by percentages in the 30s and 40s. But Glenn Beck, who takes aim at the administration repeatedly, is proving an even bigger draw since coming over from HLN: His 5 p.m. slot is up 110 percent from last year. Such a trend shows commentators like Beck can thrive in the opposition.
