Wow. CNN won in the primetime demo on Sunday. A crowning achievement.
I’m not surprised by Foxs numbers. I thought it was a waste for Fox to cover obama’s inauguration. But I thought that MSNBC would kick behind not CNN.
Plus Fox always seems to loss on the weekends in the demo
This just in: The Stone La Pierre was in Reno recently pushing his senseless position for the gun lobby and trying to keep assault type weapons and large magazines legal so they can be used in more mass murders, killing many more children and adults. The far right fringe guy and his white haired boss continue to confuse having weapons of mass murder with 2nd Amendment rights. Most Americans agree with Obama and his gun policies, fortunately, but the gun lobby is relentless in its effort to put more blood money in its pockets…..
This isn’t a total surprise. Once again, when the general population goes to cable news for the big events and news stories, CNN comes out on top in the key demo. CNN is what the American population trusts; FOX and MSNBC win out during the week because they have the left and right side of the news which is what people go to cable news for daily, not the center journalism CNN offers. The big surprise is that they also won the P+2 in primetime.
I don’t think CNN cares though about their TV ratings because they are dominating social media and the internet and by that measure are still the number one news source in America today.

When low information viewers decide to pull their heads out of phony reality shows and check in on real reality they go to CNN. CNN seems to specialize in presenting non-threatening news to the millions that don’t want to be bothered with the news.
Each News Media needs an Internet page that we can go to, and vote on certain events. such as gun control, the Congress, President and what we the people think. yet ever day we see each form of media pitting one party in the Ring with the other, we are tired of this. The media wants to be the story. not what we want. help us make this country loving again, please now it is all hate.
