LOL...that's all you can come up with?
Ratings are EVERYTHING to news. You can dismiss the vital information that shapes theses networks all you want. You're not a valid representation of any of them.
But if that's the game we're playing...fine. Jon what's his name on the comedy station and the farce news show that plays everyday so he can draw a paycheck means very little to me. Does that make his content invalid?? I think it's crap. Oh don't get me wrong, Jon's a funny guy....but he's no Laurel and Hardy.
The Circus is a good place to go for entertainment too, however I don't go there for my news. Same thing goes for Fox News.
I am a valid representation of my generation. As for your comparison to Jon Stewart, paycheck means nothing either. For example, A-Rod makes the most but I think he's overrated.
You seem to think that most ratings = best but that's a fallacy. There is also the factor that Fox News is an admitted Conservative network. Whereas non-Conservative spin on news is spread across more than three stations. If there were more stations like Fox News, their ratings would sharply decrease.
