Phillips quickly dismissed it as part of the Navy system in which "you've got to get a little bit of every network."

That is NOT what the sailors onboard said today.

They watch Fox News ALL the time.

I heard this story in the early days of the war. The FNC anchors who pulled the graveyard shift were saying how the Navy ships have a rotational system where the channels change every hour. The personnel wait until FNC's rotation and then watch.

And it's not just the Navy. The Army is hooked on Fox, too. I spend a fair bit of time on a nearby post here in MD and lobbies in key processing facilities always have Fox on as does the bowling alley (about 24 screens- lol).
