Hang the Bankers – by Clark Kent
It’s been a tough year for the liberal cable news outlets.
Data released Tuesday show CNN shedding 48 percent of total viewers since last November and MSNBC dropping 45 percent.
The numbers were even worse in the all important demographic of people aged 25 to 54 as CNN’s ratings dropped 59 percent and MSNBC’s 52 percent.
In an off-election year, and with last November’s numbers skewed higher as a result of the presidential election, it should be expected for ratings to decline.
However, Fox News didn’t see close to these losses. In total day, FNC is only down 18 percent since last November and 30 percent in the demo.
As you might imagine, prime time numbers were also down.
CNN was off 54 percent in total viewers and 62 percent in the demo. MSNBC declined 50 percent in total prime time viewers and 57 percent in the demo.
By contrast, FNC was second in all of cable in prime time this November averaging over 2 million viewers. This represented a decline of 21 percent in total viewers and 41 percent in the demo.
As such, no matter how you slice it, the liberal cable networks fared much worse in the past twelve months than their far more centrist competitor.

Don’t worry, McDonalds still endorses CNN, since they have them on their TVs 24/7 at their fast food joints.
Just another reason why McDonalds is the next place to lose customers as less and less people are eating there these days. Who wants to watch CNN while eating a horseburger? It’s bad enough you’re gonna vomit from the horseburger. Now they just want to finish you off with CNN.
And they call it a pleasant dining experience? Ha! What a joke? I’m sorry McDonalds, but I’m just not “lovin’ it”.
Fox might not have lost as many viewers, but many they have tune in for the morning soft-core porn show, that has the female anchor hiking up her skirt so high you can almost see her panties, which many a drooling viewer wishes would happen.
You can tell when the ratings at Fox go down, because that’s when the skirt goes up.
“CNN and MSNBC lose almost half their viewers in one year”
Only HALF???
Shhhh! That’s the best that they could skew. They would have gone for a higher percentage rate, but it just simply wasn’t possible. (sarcasm)
You mean they don’t ALWAYS tell the truth?
I’m SO disillusioned.
