Only two real explanations:

1) Nobody is panicked because no one watches CNN, or;

2) CNN and the MSM have a long and storied history of trying to whip up fear in the public and tell them that only the government will save them - preferably under a Democrat - and the public just ain't buyin' what the MSM is selling anymore.

You decide.

Unfortunately, CNN is still the most watched network.

Here's February's total audience numbers:

CNN: 58,063,000
FNC: 51,755,000
MSNBC: 51,557,000

Fox records higher hourly ratings because the average Fox viewer watches 4 times as long as the average CNN viewer, but CNN still beats Fox in total number of Americans tuning in over the course of the day.
