#6 Yesterday CBS was gloating about their Super Bowl ratings, today they're laying off 800 people. So, maybe their every day ratings are not so hot.

Dunno about Herridge but I can't help thinking if she was so good, what was she doing at CBS? I understand options are limited for honest journalists but I think I'd rather take my chances with independence than compromise my integrity at CBS.

#8 Fox ratings for the month just got reported at 1.5 million daily views, MSLSD had 1.1, and CNN had 500k, including the airports. Tucker's single Putin Interview topped 200 million internet views as of last night. A la carte news consumption done by independents is ascendant over the old guard legacy sources and their biased reporting and intentional editorial blindness.
