Fox News Ratings Up 8% Since Squabble With White House Began
Wizbang —
I'm not sure if anyone needs more proof that Fox News is relishing the tongue lashing that the White House is dishing out, but the Los Angeles Times is reporting that the number of average views for the channel is way up since the squabble began. Is this more proof that the Administration's attacks are backfiring? From the L.A. Times: This year, Fox News has averaged nearly 1.2 million viewers across all its programming, a 16% increase over the same period last year, according to Nielsen.

Pajamas Media —
Watch out Fox News. [image] Fox News’ ratings have been off the charts lately, and it has the White House to thank for that.
