Huh?

A ratings downer for Fox News

By Scott Collins, Times Staff Writer, May 8, 2006

Some recent ratings news no doubt gladdened the hearts of Fox News Channel haters.First, Nielsen Media Research reported that Fox News' overall prime-time lineup dropped 17% last month compared with a year ago (MSNBC grew 16% during the same period, while CNN plummeted by 38%).

Full L.A. Times article here. Never mind. I don't post links that require registration.
Nevertheless, isn't it interesting that Fox is the subject in the headline, while the more than double decline of CNN is mentioned only parenthetically? Anyway, these may be several reasons for the Fox ratings drop.
  • Bob Beckel
  • Brenda Butner
  • Wesley Clark
  • Eleanor Clift
  • Alan Colmes
  • Steve Doocy
  • Susan Estrich
  • Geraldine Ferraro
  • Kimberly Guilfoyle
  • Ellis Henican
  • E. D. Hill
  • Juliet Huddy
  • Mike Jerrick
  • Julian Phillips
  • Geraldo Rivera
  • Shepard Smith
  • Greta Van Susteren
  • Juan Williams

and, sometimes, Bill O'Reilly

Just my two cents
