Fox Biz Network Averaging 20K Primetime Viewers Plus Cable News Is White Guys Club

July 31, 2008

I spotted this on Aaron Barnhart’s most fabulous ticker.

From NY Observer via Washington Post’s Howard Kurtz.

Says Kurtz:

For the first three weeks of July, according to Nielsen figures obtained yesterday that have not been publicly released, Fox Business Network is averaging just 8,000 viewers during daytime hours, and 20,000 in prime time.

CNBC, by contrast, is drawing an average of 284,000 viewers during the day and 191,000 in prime time. 

Also off Aaron’s most excellent ticker - Courant.com’s Roger Catlin Says:  Cable News’ White Boys Club.

John Stewart’s assessment of cable news:  "Hot Ladies & Bald Dudes"
