Fox News Continues to Gain

I guess Rupert Murdoch was right: half the country really is a tremendous niche market. Courtesy of The American Thinker:

CNN is in the grip of a crisis. Variety reports that its prime time ratings slipped 21% in February, while the FNC juggernaut added 18% to its viewership. FNC now has just under two and a half times the audience of Ted Turner's baby. Extrapolating from the reported figures, FNC added 240,000 viewers, while CNN lost 123,000.

The picture is not much brighter for MSNBC. Starting from a smaller base, it lost 14% of its prime time audience, and 15% of its overall audience.
