Sen.Kennedy TV Coverage A Rating Flop And Finanical Disaster

The Obama national media CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS NBC have been covering the death of Sen. Ted Kennedy non-stop. But it has been a ratings and financial disaster for the networks, says the L.A. Times. Fox maintained it's top ranking among cable news channels Wednesday as it competitors turned most of the coverage over to the death of Sen. Kennedy. The event didn't prove to be a major draw for viewers, However, Fox, which covered the story in a limited fashion, drew a average of 1.37 million viewers throughout the entire day and 2.67 million viewers during prime time, according to Neilson Media Research. CNN usually dominates major news events, averaged 711,000 viewers overall and 1.19 million views in prime time, MSNBC pulled in 506,000 throughout the day and 984,000 in prime time. In the key 25-54 advertising demographic, Fox had doubled the audience of it's competitors in prime time, averaging 736,000 viewers. CNN and MSNBC were effectively tied with, 321,00 and 318.000 respectively. This shows that the average American is not interested in following "Liberal Deification" of Sen. Ted Kennedy for 24 unbearable hours. The Democrats may have made another strategical mistake by using Sen. Kennedy death to pass Obamacare. It is estimated that both Cable News Networks have lost untold millions by giving 24 hour coverage to the liberal icon.
