Here is just one example of why ppl watch Fox over MSNBC or CNN. During the height of the Russia, Ukraine, Crimea shite show, Fox covered ukraine, domestic shite, and the missing plane. CNN 100% missing plane 24/7 and MSNBC well I can't remember but it was bad.
CNN is facing an identity crisis. With Fox going right and MSNBC going left, they had fallen to 3rd in the key demo group of 25-54. With so many options, normal people only watch cable news when something happens. So they can't find a niche. They've been flailing for some time. That plane reporting debacle is a great example of how desperate they are to find a place for themselves in the market.

That's the truth.
ALTHOUGH! I really like Anthony Bourdain so I do like that addition.
But again, that's entertainment, not news. Just like the rest of them.
I can't think of one news anchor on any station except Shep Smith. And really the only reason I know him is because he was mentioned as an Ole Miss guy here AND I watched his recent Ebola clip.
Is Wolf Blitzer an anchor our does he inject opinion like the rest? I only watch him on election nights. He seems decent.

I personalty like to watch all the news to see what they're all saying. How else can one get all the sides with today's polarized environment? Suppose if you only wanted to listen to views you agree with most you'd read, listen, or watch one source.
Speaking of identity crisis. That's me trying to find a political party to support, but I dislike having to join either party to tell ya the truth. But if one really wants to be involved in our political system, seems you've gotta join either or. I've voted for both Dem and Rep throughout my lifetime, and usually went with the person running themselves, but never followed things to close. That's changing now though with me trying to educate myself on these matters.

They went full tabloid grade during the missing plane incident and again during Ferguson. Their credibility is shot and their format is terrible.
