Wed Oct 22 2008 07:25:40 ET

The Obama-McCain match-up is proving to be a lackluster election ticket for the Big 3 network news programs, according to NIELSEN MEDIA RESEARCH.

As the shouting from the trail and the frantic spinning from the anchor desks intensify, the audience is voting with their remotes.

All 3 evening news shows experienced audience drops year-to-year for the week of Oct. 13-19, 2008.

CBSNEWS w/ Couric shed a half a million viewers, falling from 6.4 million to 5.9 million; ABCNEWS dropped from 8.1 million to 7.6 million; NBCNEWS slumped from 8.2 million to 7.8 million.

Why would you compare a cable network that is bound to have lower ratings to the big three? I could see comparing fox and cnn or even fox, msnbc and cnn but to compare fox to abc, cbs & nbc is apples to oranges.

The fair and balanced network.

If you watch it you will notice that there are a whole lot of liberals on the network. When ever they are talking politics there are always liberals represented. If you watch Fox long enough you will never watch the network or CNN news ever again. Because on Fox they present both sides.
Ask Hillary who gave her the fairest shake during the primaries?
She will tell you Fox was the only network that was fair to her.
Her Communications Director was Howard Wolfson.
Howard is a Fox regular political contributor now.

Even Fast Eddie Rendell told Sean Hanitty that Fox was the most fair network to Hillary Clinton
