With Obama in White House, FNC's Ratings Grow

Two weeks into President Barack Obama's time in the White House, with a changed line-up to go with the change on 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Fox News Channel is posting stronger ratings than during the end of George W. Bush's time in office.

So far during prime time (through Wednesday's ratings), FNC is averaging 2,495,000 Total Viewers, well ahead of CNN's 1,254,000 and MSNBC's 984,000 combined. In the A25-54 demo, FNC is #1 with 539,000 compared to CNN's 388,000 and MSNBC's 357,000.

FNC is up 23% Total Viewers and 28% in the A25-54 demo in prime time from the two weeks prior to the Inauguration of Obama to the two weeks since. CNN is up 5% in Total Viewers and 4% in the demo and MSNBC is down 1% in Total Viewers and 1% in the demo.

True

But if Mr. Tingle Up His Leg would not have made those stupid comments about MSNBC being the network of change, maybe people would take them more seriously and watch.

Maybe that is a factor in the slumping ratings at MSNBC

Correlation is not causation ;)

it is not implied, it does not mean the absence of a relationship between two events

Anyone know if Limbaugh's listener numbers have gone up?
