When there are straight news stories (as opposed to opinion stories) like the story unfolding on TV now - CNN wins most demos (except 65+).

I watched the F&Friends hosts this AM - they were totally unwatchable and out of their league.

That is your opinion but you again state it as if it is fact. CNN news reporting is fodder for the late night host.

Go to TVbythenumbers.com (Nielsen research and ratings) next week.

Find out the facts for yourself.

I think Nielsen is more objective than late night comics, BTW.

Well, I'm off to do the day's errands. I'll leave you with Bret Baier"s sign off on Special Report every night. Fair, balanced, and unafraid !

Bill Hammer and Martha are excellent. So is Jenna Lee. Is she back yet?

I find on all 3 stations there are watchable and unmatchable people.

I believe this past week she came back...only seen her once though.

Thanks. I like her a lot.

FOX has the best and the brightest on board. The ratings tell the story. Outnumbered is another one of their great programs. Smart people that tackle the real issues. Hopefully, more young people are tuning in and will vote in 2016 so that we can try to turn this mess around.

By on board, do you mean on air or those watching?

Does it really matter who age someone is? People watch what they're comfortable watching.

I'm not a 60-something white male, which is who all 3 cable news stations are targeting, BTW. Most people who post here aren't either.

I am not either...but I watch FOX and much prefer it.

The news nets are targeting 25-49 year olds.

They aren't doing a very good job of it though!

25-49 is the demo most major advertisers use to sell their products (just a few years ago, it was 26-54).

The ad agencies believe that people between 25-49 are more susceptible to advertising and more likely to try a new brand or product - older people are more set in their ways. That is why online advertising is exploding - younger people spend more time online than watching traditional TV.
