Larry Elder: The cold, hard facts about Fox News

The best gauge is who watches these stations. Fox News Channel, as a percentage of viewers, includes more self-described libs and indies than CNN or MSNBC includes self-described conservatives and indies. Pew Research Center recently studied the cable channel viewers' politics. CNN? Fifty-one percent liberal, 23 percent independent and 18 percent conservative. MSNBC? Forty-five percent liberal, 27 percent independent and 18 percent conservative. Don't know about the 'fair' part, but Fox's audience was the most 'balanced,' with 39 percent conservatives, 33 percent liberals and 22 percent independents."
