1. Do You Even Watch Fox News, Bro?

Here's an interesting chart that liberal commentators are crowing about, totally oblivious of what it actually tells us.

[Full Disclosure: I don' watch any of these channels, or any other, although I do read news coverage from a few of them.]

2. What it says is that Republicans watch at least one channel that does not confirm their natural biases. Democrats take no such risks.

3. What it also says is that the 'news' channel Democrats trust the most (@CNN) is also the cable news channel that Americans watch the least. Interesting dichotomy there. Maybe Democrats trust it so much they only watch it on special occasions.

@CNN 4. Why does USA Today even exist if Republicans don't trust it at all and the Democrats trust it the least?

@CNN 5. The chart makes it clear no one trusts @MSNBC, not even Democrats. But viewership numbers for @MSNBC are much larger than those for @CNN which Democrats trust the most of course. So why do people watch @MSNBC? Is it that even Democrats are snickering at Maddow and Scarborough?

@CNN @MSNBC 6. I close with this sobering thought for WaPo. Americans trust @MSNBC the least, and even Democrats trust WaPo less than even @MSNBC. Congratulations, Mr. Bezos! You have been had.

The End
