Fox News reaches nearly half of American adults and over 60 percent of Republican-leaning adults, according to a new Pew Research Center report.
The study surveyed 12,045 American adults between March 8 and March 14, 2021, and found that 43% of American adults got at least some political news from Fox News that week, compared to 10% who got some news from NewsMax and 7% who got some news from One America News (OAN). The findings suggest that Fox News may not have to worry too much about NewsMax and OAN cutting into its viewership after all.“While Fox does well among its conservative Republican core audience, it is also used by substantial portions of Democrats and ideologically moderate and liberal Republicans, according to the survey,” Pew’s Amy Mitchell writes. “And it attracts roughly equal portions of White, Black and Hispanic Americans.”
Sixty-two percent of Republican and Republican-leaning adults consumed Fox News in that week in March, along with 28% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning adults. Just over 20% of Republicans said they watched Newsmax and 14 percent watched OAN. Among Democrats, only 1% said they watched either.
With smaller audiences overall, Newsmax and OAN are still more likely to attract certain demographic groups than others, some of which align with the audience make-up of Fox News. https://t.co/C8tDwJeZso pic.twitter.com/pffg40LFqX

Fox News, of the three channels, attracts the most diverse viewership, Pew found, drawing “roughly equal levels of audience across White (44%), Black (47%) and Hispanic adults (41%). Among Asian Americans surveyed, fewer (29%) said they got political news from Fox in the past week.”
Meanwhile, 13% of white adults had watched NewsMax; 2% of Black adults, 5% of Hispanic adults, and 8% of Asian adults had. Eight percent of white adults, 1% of Black adults, 4% of Hispanic adults, and 6% of Asian adults said they’d watched OAN.
Fox News was more popular among adults older than 50, but has strong viewership of adults under 50 as well. Thirty-nine percent of adults between ages 30 and 49 said they got political news from Fox News while just six and five percent said the same about Newsmax and OAN, respectively. Thirty-seven percent of adults between 18 to 29 got political news from Fox News while six percent said the same about both Newsman and OAN.
With smaller audiences overall, Newsmax and OAN are still more likely to attract certain demographic groups than others, some of which align with the audience make-up of Fox News. https://t.co/C8tDwJeZso pic.twitter.com/pffg40LFqX

Together with everything which seems to be developing within this area, a significant percentage of opinions tend to be rather stimulating. Even so, I beg your pardon, because I do not give credence to your entire suggestion, all be it stimulating none the less. It looks to everybody that your commentary are generally not entirely justified and in actuality you are generally your self not even fully confident of your point. In any event I did enjoy reading it.
Hi! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no data backup. Do you have any solutions to protect against hackers?

The core of your writing whilst sounding agreeable initially, did not really sit perfectly with me personally after some time. Somewhere throughout the paragraphs you were able to make me a believer unfortunately only for a while.

Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!

Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your post seem to be running off the screen in Ie.

I’m really loving the theme/design of your website. Do you ever run into any browser compatibility problems? A number of my blog audience have complained about my website not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Safari. Do you have any solutions to help fix this problem?
Greetings from Florida! I’m bored to death at work so I decided to check out your site on my iphone during lunch break. I really like the information you present here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m amazed at how fast your blog loaded on my phone .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyways, wonderful site!

Interesting post made here. One thing I would like to say is most professional career fields consider the Bachelors Degree just as the entry level standard for an online college degree. Whilst Associate Diplomas are a great way to get started, completing your Bachelors reveals many opportunities to various occupations, there are numerous online Bachelor Diploma Programs available by institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another issue is that many brick and mortar institutions make available Online variants of their certifications but usually for a substantially higher payment than the corporations that specialize in online course plans.
Hmm is anyone else having problems with the pictures on this blog loading? I’m trying to determine if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any feed-back would be greatly appreciated.
Do you have a spam problem on this blog; I also am a blogger, and I was wondering your situation; we have created some nice practices and we are looking to exchange techniques with others, be sure to shoot me an e-mail if interested.
