The fact is that Fox only has more ratingsb because most Americans are entertained by dogma. Hence, why CNN doesn't pull ratings like MSNBC and Fox.
One name: Keith Olbermann.

Even most stupid people are smart enough to know the smell of manure when it's being thrown at them.

Ratings have nothing to do with it.

I pay for my children to live, that doesnt mean my children are me

Continue to display your ignorance because you dont know the difference between an affiliate, and a network. And you have the nerve to talk about other people lying when you havent stopped.

You can't even spell Jon Stewart. But stay on Fox and look at the pretty colors. They say everything with such confidence, they must be right

That is not even his real name, so does it really matter how it's spelled?

Again, you don't read anything, so it's a waste of time to discuss it. You are Roger Ailes' dream viewer.

Never said I could spell, but I did say I dont have cable. Keep lying about what I watch though if it makes you feel smarter than you are

Al Gore wouldn't have taken us to war in Iraq, John Kerry deserves a Swift Boat apology and Edwards was never nominated. But Sarah Palin was.
