Facts are stubborn things....

PEW Center did a poll breaking down the partisanship of the major news outlet's viewers and the results are very interesting:

% that are Republicans % that are Democrats % that are Independent

FOX News 33 39 22

CNN 18 51 23

MSNBC 18 45 26

Network
Evening News 22 45 26

PBS 21 46 23

The traditional networks had a viewership of democrats that outnumbered republicans by a 2:1 ratio.
So, the alleged "conservative mouthpiece" of the media has the most balanced audienced out of all the major new outlets. no wonder they lead in ratings and number of total viewers.
I guess this takes away liberal arguments of the conservative bias, considering that the majority of the people watching foxnews are either democrats or independents..
