The FACTS are still the FACTS. More young people still watch Fox News than MSNBC. And a lot of older and wiser people watch it too.
It simply beats MSNBC in EVERY demographic.
If you don't think that the head of MSNBC would LOVE to have those older (and richer) viewers so that they could charge more money for advertisements, then you clearly haven't thought it through.
Look...I think that ALL of these channels are shitty for actual "news". But FNC is simply BETTER at what they do than MSNBC.
It's funny to read some of this...you guys are not only making excuses for the political parties you love, but now you're making every excuse under the sun for MSNBC sucking.
Look, I get it...if you are a person who just loves Democrats....then MSNBC is the holy grail.
Problem is...nobody is watching it. And from reading all the quotes and vid clips that Democrat Party loyalists keep posting here...it seems that they too are watching Fox News a lot, or at least bringing it up in every conversation ad nauseum.
The conversations seem to go like this:
Me: "Pres. Obama isn't doing what he promised and in many ways has seemed worse to me than Bush."
Obamapologist: "He isn't doing anything that Bush didn't do too! And quit listening to Fox News!:"
AND:
Me: "Whether you like FNC or not, they are constantly kicking everyone else's ass in the ratings in EVERY age group"
MSNBC Lovers: "Fox News viewers are all old and stupid rednecks! We 'liberal' elite are far too clever and smart! Fox News lies! And oh yeah...one more thing...GEORGE BUSH and THE KOCH BROTHERS!!!"
It's really lame guys. Especially the trying to twist reality to fit some kind of elitist smarmy vision of things.
Let's keep it in reality and not fantasy.
