The Headline: "MSNBC Now #3 Behind CNN"

Not until the third paragraph did I learn that for the 7 pm time slot, Fox news was leading with 570,000 viewers* to CNN's 275,000 and MSNBC's 190,000: Fox News has more viewers than MSNBC and CNN combined.

And the headline read, "MSNBC audience share shrinking, CNN now second most watched news network."

Gee, I wonder why people find Authorized Journalists a bit...shifty.

(Mind you, I don't watch any of them on on a regular basis: too much commentary, too little news).

The trick to the news is to take them with a grain of salt a mile on a side. :-)

FNC's 3 AM show Red Eye has beat CNN at 10PM.

Hmmm, maybe the barking moonbat contingent has quit watching MSNBC in protest to the departure of their exalted leader, Keith Olbermann.
