vehemently.
But I was in an office the other day that had him playing and I had to agree with him--I almost needed cardiac massage for that one.
He said and I am paraphrasing "that no media is mainstream anymore and that is what is happening to the networks. They either lean left or right and in so doing alienate core audiences which is turning them to other news sources. He said something to the effect that when people watch Faux they expect their news to be tailored to their liking--etc" and that is what they are seeking out and thats why their ratings are so high."
Finally at least one of the pigs realizes that MSM doesn't exist.

This brings me to my conclusion that Faux's numbers are so big because these people are sheep--or lemmings if you will and all flock there.

Most of us left leaners tend to seek out different news sources to broaden our scope and view, thus we don't have "ONE" news source so it really skews the numbers and assures that there cannot be a correct accountability of viewership based on political leanings.
