What A Choice
According to this story, Aaron Brown has regained some viewers against van Susteren. What it doesn't point out is that, if Fox were available to as many viewers as CNN, they'd be killling them in the ratings. These numbers indicating a "tie" in the ratings are thus quite misleading. When people have a choice for news channels, they watch Fox. Much of CNN's audience is captive.

Well, it does point out that CNN is available to more homes and thus that its total number of viewers does not imply higher ratings.
I certainly watch Fox more than CNN. The sad thing for CNN is that when I find Fox annoying enough to change the channel, CNN always seems to annoy me even more.
