17. You're not paying attention- Fox ratings down as Newsmax and OAN ratings go up

That’s why MSNBC has #1 status (ratings raw numbers are never mentioned)- the former #1 Fox, has lost tons of viewers to the more extreme networks Newsmax and OAN.

MSNBC doesn’t need more viewers to be #1, they just need the former #1 to lose viewers.

More Americans get their news from right wing extremist networks than from MSNBC and CNN.
