a few thoughts on this: quantity is not the same as quality; i regularly point out fox's ratings strength; they've cornered a very specific market; however, the cable news race is all about the 25-54 demo, and in the demo, the race is much closer than you suggested
I don't know if Hannity was on or off Friday. What I know is that people who fixate on total viewers miss the business story. Like I said: Fox is a skyscraper. Every media reporter knows that. This Twitter chat doesn't really have a point!

Like most every other twitter chat.

LOL. I think we agree that both the demo and total viewers matters. The biz and thus the corporate battle is all about the demo. My view is that the demo race is closer than you seem to think. The end!

The demo win angle is for advertising. The public does not care. The overall numbers are the key and CNN has tanked. Sure, you will get the ads by claiming a demo win here and there, but the viewers are gone. After a while, even advertisers sense no one is watching.

Gosh, I wish there was a way you could find out if Hannity was on or off that night. Like maybe if you worked at a news/media company, or something like that. Seriously
