Just doesn’t make sense:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes ... tings/amp/Fox is only one outlet. Why are CNN and MSNBC failing so miserably?
Could it be their fake news and credibility w educated thinkers? KG, EA?
Maybe much like Washington Post fake bombshell report that Mueller sent letter to Barr tonight? A huge headline w another non-story. It was staged just because Democrats are really paranoid of the train that is really coming down the track on the Obama admin conspiracy. Oh yeah, it’s a coming folks.
Liberal cable demise is just the tip.

Not sure why you're always so infatuated with FOX news ratings. You do realize that it isn't real news, right? FOX gave up any claim to being a real news outlet years ago. Their only true Journalists are Shep Smith and Chris Wallace and those aren't prime time shows. Bill O'Reilly even admitted that him and Hannity aren't real news because they're "opinion guys." He was forced to admit this years ago when Bill Maher cornered him and asked him to explain why he and Hannity were never held accountable for spreading fake news.
This kind of crap happens on a daily basis:
Fox News Seemingly Cut To Commercial When Guest Links Poway Synagogue Shooting To Election Of Trump Cutting off their own guests in mid-sentence tells you a lot. There are folks at FOX who know what not to say and they're nervous with their finger on the trigger to switch to commercial as soon as one of their guests says something factual.
FOX never was news, it was always an entertainment network geared towards extreme Right Wing morons. These guys don't report news, they opine and tell their audience what they want to hear. The majority of FOX viewers are white and over the age of 65. Every once in a while you'll see a FOX person say some truth but then they have to quickly cut to commercial because truth isn't the narrative they want.
But you're gloating because their ratings are good? Hannity is an uneducated buffoon. Rachel Maddow went to Oxford. We're really talking about two entirely different animals here. If you combine CNN and MSNBC, they have more viewers than FOX. Why? Because FOX has the market cornered for Right Wing misinformation networks in the mainstream media. Idiots like you looking for racist and moronic rants have nowhere else to go but FOX News.

KG, I was just asking about the ratings demise of CNN and MSNBC. I get Fox is not your preferred cable news network. But why are the ratings of Fox competitors falling? Neither you, I or EA control ratings. I’m just curious how you folk explain their demise since the release of the Mueller report. Just thought with the IPhone degrees you and EA posses, could get some intellectual insight on these facts.

I'm confident this is completely true.
I'm not sure how much cable news ratings tell us these days anyway. If people are still watching cable, they're probably very old and don't realize they can stream whatever they want on demand on YouTube. And we know mostly older people are fooled by Fox, who know how to stoke old folk outrage.
We gave up cable ages ago.
I take their #1 rating with a huge grain of salt. It's not news; nobody's learning facts from them (not at night, anyway). It's a cheesy, backward-ass religion channel.
