"This is a time for ... analysis,"

Does he mean introspection or therapy?

Here is his article:

"For the six weeks, from January 1st to February 15th, CNN’s market share averaged 31.5%; Headline News had 12% for a total of 43.5%. This week, post Gulf War II; CNN’s market share is down to 27% with Headline at 10.3% for a combined total of 37.3%. That represents a drop of six share points. On the other hand, FoxNews is up to 51%, nine share points higher than the 42% share it had three months ago.



On April 9th, in the midst of the war, CNN averaged 35.4%. During the war they did better than they are doing post war. Since the end of the war CNN/Headline News have lost about fifteen percent of their audience share. This is unprecedented and calls for immediate action. This is not a time for panic but it is a time for analysis. What is CNN doing wrong? How can it be fixed? Wall Street is unlikely to wait long for answers."
