19. There's some talk out there that Fox's ratings are vastly inflated
anyway.

Something about how many individual hits or tune-ins per day or show, rather than taking into account whether or not the viewer actually stays on that channel.

If viewed by the people actually watching a whole program, CNN has way more viewers than FOX.

Could be that most of the people watching O'Leilly just tune in until the first train-wreck of the show and, not being able to stand it any longer, change channels.

Does anybody know any more about this?
