Over on Lost Remote, a reader named Jason has a theory about why FNC and CNN are at their lowest levels in the demo in several years:

“Maybe it’s due to the fact that younger people realize the complete disaster we’re in politically, economically, militarily and socially, and cable news’ incessant focus on the missing white woman of the day story, or the Duke rape investigation story, or Internet sex predators story really isn’t hitting home for that young demographic because we realize it’s bull that cable shows put on TV just for ratings’ sake,” he writes.
