Way to twist a guy's words there, Robbie. Not to mention saying that he seems to
HATE older people. Inflammatory, much? Maybe you want to dial it back a hair.
The fact is,
the median age of a Fox viewer is 68, with a 1.1% black viewership. The stereotype of Fox as a channel for old white conservatives is backed up by the data.
Oh, and they've been losing the younger demographic for years.
"TVNewser reported on the big drop in young people tuning into Fox News, ?Compared to 2012, Fox News was down -5% in total viewers and -19% in the A25-54 demographic in total day. In primetime, the network was down -14% in total viewers and -30% in the demo, the steepest decline among younger viewers of all the cable news networks.?
2012 was a presidential election year, so all three cable news networks lost viewers in 2013. The difference is that at Fox News this problem has been going on for years. The move of Megyn Kelly to 9 PM was supposed to attract young viewers, but Kelly suffered a drop 23% in young viewership compared to Sean Hannity?s 2012 ratings. Bill O?Reilly is down 23% with younger viewers, and Hannity is down 16%."
