Fox News Is On Its Death Bed Yet Most Do Not Realize It
 
As Fox News dies, one can help the demise of their misinformation by pointing it out and moving on without obsessing.

http://egbertowillies.com/2014/01/27/fox-news-dying/

yes... it links to it's own website...

But as Wolff also observed, “The cable audience, for all the attention heaped on it for its theoretical political sway, is not that large.” To put it mildly. As the overwhelming leader in its field, Fox draws just over a million viewers in prime time—a ­pittance and a niche next to even the ever-declining network newscasts, of which the lowest rated (CBS Evening News) still can attract a nightly audience as large as 8 million.

Posters like the writer of the OP count on the fact that libs will never verify information if it is something they agree with. They are content to spread a lie as long as they can claim ignorance when exposed.

How many liberal pundits, bloggers, etc. have demanded that Fox News have their licence revoked and be shut down?

Countless, including umpteen threads on DU suggesting the same.

Now,

How many conservative pundits, bloggers, etc. have demanded that MSNBC have their licence revoked and be shut down?




....None.

It literally took five minutes to find both the cable news ratings and the primetime ratings for the networks, type a message and post it refuting the OP. It's like they don't even try to hide the lies anymore.

Not one DUmmy chimed in with their old lie about how banks and doctor's offices are paid by Fox to have the TV set to their station.

And no stories about stealing remotes either.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

UPDATED FOR THE STATE OF THE UNION SPEECH!!!

Quote
You’d figure MSNBC and CNN would have done much better considering Dems are more inclined to watch an Obama speech.

Via Variety:

Fox News flexed its muscles as the most popular cable news outlet Tuesday night, as its coverage of the State of the Union address out-drew the combined tune-in of rivals CNN and MSNBC. It was also the only one to be up vs. last year’s speech.

According to Nielsen estimates for roughly 9:14-10:20 p.m. ET, Fox News Channel averaged 4,718,853 viewers — more than double MSNBC (2,292,169) and CNN (2,081,431). FNC held a sizable advantage in the key news demo of adults 25-54 as well (1,197,554), with CNN ranking second by this measure (762,450) and MSNBC third (752,054).

From 9 to 11 p.m., FNC, whose coverage was anchored by Bret Baier, averaged 4.51 million viewers, followed by 2.17 million for MSNBC and 1.88 million for CNN.

It was a much tighter race a year ago, with Fox News only narrowly leading CNN in total viewers and finishing third in adults 25-54. Compared to the 2013 State of the Union address, held in February, Fox News was up 28% in total viewers (from 3.68 million) and 25% in adults 25-54 (from 956,000), while CNN was down more than 40% in both categories and MSNBC was off by more than 20 in both.

This was CNN’s least-watched SOTU since 2005 in both total viewers and the 25-54 demo, and it was MSNBC’s lowest since 2008.

I think the Examiner is playing a little fast and loose with the facts  :)
This is from it's original source


http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2014/01/fox-news-once-again-most-and-least-trusted-name-in-news.html#more

Fox News once again most and least trusted name in news

Quote
PBS, which 57% say they trust to 24% who don't. Most Democrats (80/6) and independents (49/31) trust it and it at least gets an even split with Republicans at 38%.

Voters are closely divided about most of the rest of the outlets- Fox News comes in at 44/42, CBS at 39/37, CNN at 40/40, NBC at 39/39, and ABC News at 37/38. In Fox's case 75% of Republicans trust it while only 20% of Democrats do. For all the rest of them around 60-70% of Democrats trust them, but only around 20% of Republicans do.
