More On TV Ratings

According to the previously mentioned article:

Here's a rundown of the 10 most-watched shows for the week ended Sunday, according to Nielsen Media Research: 1. 75th Annual Academy Awards, ABC, 33 million, 2. American Idol (Tuesday), Fox, 21.1 million, 3. Oscar Countdown 2003, ABC, 19.5 million, 4. American Idol (Wednesday), Fox, 17.2 million, 5. Survivor: Amazon, CBS, 16.4 million, 6. Friends, NBC, 14.9 million, 7. Fear Factor, NBC, 14.7 million, 8. Scrubs, NBC, 14.2 million, 9. Judging Amy, CBS, 14.167 million, 10. JAG, CBS, 14 million.

"[Fox News] is outdrawing the veteran, 4 million viewers to 3.6 million through Monday, according to Nielsen Media Research."

Even if you combine Fox News and CNN ratings on WAR COVERAGE they still wouldn't crack the top 10. Obviously shows such as Survivor: Amazon is far more important.

At least America has its priorities straight.
