While its ratings come nowhere close to the three cable news titans—Fox, CNN and MSNBC—One America News outperforms Fusion, Bloomberg and Al Jazeera combined, according to first quarter ratings on total hours viewed. It is making its influence felt in other ways too, including by sponsoring this year's CPAC and interviewing nearly all the potential Republican presidential candidates who spoke there, including Sen. Marco Rubio, Gov. Scott Walker, Sen. Rand Paul, Ben Carson, and Carly Fiorina.

But while many trend pieces have been written about Fusion TV and Al Jazeera, media reporters have largely ignored One America News. Meanwhile, its staff has doubled from 65 to 130 employees.

Tripped over One America News a few weeks ago.

Was skeptical at first...thinking it was like Al Jazeera.  It's not.

Interesting.  Their website doesn't look bad - but I haven't gone through it in detail.  Thanks for posting jmyrle.
