Fox News Channel continued its ratings dominance in the just concluded second quarter. Compared to Q2 '08 FNC is up an astonishing 33% among Total Viewers and up 44% in the A25-54 demo in Total Day (Monday-Sunday). In primetime (Monday-Friday) the numbers are even more impressive: up 35% in Total Viewers and up 54% in younger viewers. FNC is on-track to have the highest rated year in the network's 13 year history.

In primetime, Fox News has more Total Viewers and younger viewers than MSNBC and CNN combined.

Fox News occupies the Top 10 spots on cable news among Total Viewers:

8pm - O'Reilly Factor — 3,188,000 9pm - Hannity — 2,341,000 5pm - Glenn Beck — 2,053,000 10pm - On the Record — 1,950,000 6pm - Special Report — 1,889,000 7pm - Fox Report — 1,757,000 11pm - O'Reilly Factor — 1,579,000 9am - America's Newsroom — 1,399,000 4pm - Your World — 1,389,000 3pm - Studio B — 1,169,000

USA
TNT
Fox News

Where is ESPN? It was my understanding that sports channels were some of the main drivers of cable TV.

For a news channel to be this big a player in cable is really suprising.

Rat's will be trying their damnedest to find a way to take them down. Maybe a tax on successful cable media?
