As the old saying goes, never discuss Trump Hotels or CNN at the dinner table.

This tweet pretty much encapsulates the why for both:

This is some stupid bullshit metric that means nothing. They have Fox News at #3 yet they are the number one cable channel. That isn't polarizing. That's success. They don't even mention ESPN yet they are dropping through the floor.


    Fox News (1,508,000)
    Hallmark (1,270,000)
    MSNBC (1,098,000)
    Nickelodeon (974,000)
    ESPN (932,000)

It's funny and sad to see how Breitbart is low even with Republicans

Looks like it's better than ten percent favorable with Republicans.

Chick-fil-A did well across the board.

Taken with the usual grain, I thought these tables interesting.
