The hard numbers don't support it.
The poll has to be flawed.
31% of the population self-identify as D. Carlson has around 4.2 million viewers. If(!) that idiot's show had a population representing sample that would be 1.3 million dems. But, CNN averages around 1.1million in primetime. So, more dems are watching TC than CNN?
It's not logical that a show like his would attract 31% dems.

That was a long time ago, but I’m pretty sure they didn’t ask us that question then.

Both them and Snoozemaxx.
I called up the parental lock & randomly typed in 6 digit PINs without looking at the remote. Even I can't unlock the channels!
I don't even accidentally want to tune in.
And, since cable companies have algorithms to predict viewing interests, they must be tracking channel selection. I want my count for them to be ZERO!

If I want to know what Fox "News" is saying, there are clips on the late night comedy shows - ridiculing them!

I only use my laptop for all my entertainment needs: movies, youtube stuff especially dealing with history, TV series that aired long ago and now are streaming, you name it. I don't think I have ever watched FUCKHEAD NEWS ever in my life!

Used to be a lot of conservatives listened to Howard Stern back in the day, public admonishments aside.

Besides, “All In” covers Tuck pretty well, so we don’t have to watch.

At a (former) friend's house. Walked away in disbelief after watching 10 minutes of transparently fascist bullshit.

Why in the fuck would any decent person with a lick of common sense watch that anti-democracy Goebbels inspired Nazi recruitment propaganda?

BTW, that former friend, after years of Fox News indoctrination, is now a foaming at the mouth Trump loving conspiracy theory spouting fascist.

If you watch it and think it's not poisoning your consciousness, you are wrong. It really is.

Turn off, tune out, drop in.
