Fox News on Ratings Rampage

Conservatives may not like President Obama, but their favorite channel is having the time of its life under the new administration. Primetime viewership is up 35% compared with last year and is now averaging about as many viewers as the top three other cable news networks combined, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Obama has proved a boon to the network, according to the network's senior vice president for programming, Bill Shine, as FOX viewers will "see some sides of an issue that they won't see elsewhere." The president's certainly noticed: in a recent interview with CNBC he said that he's got "one television station entirely devoted to attacking my administration," a swipe at FOX News.
