Fox News Is The Clear Cable Leader

If there’s any doubt about the mood and interest of the electorate, take a look at the cable television rankings.  The recent election night of January 19, 2010 comparison of viewers of FOX programming, which generally takes a right of center position to extreme right to MSNBC programming which generally takes a liberal point of view to CNN that tries to stay neutral but tends to be center to left of center.  These numbers definitely say Americans are more to the right of center.  Then again there are 300 million people in the United States.  Perhaps we need more information like what are the ages of this viewing audience?
