As MSNBC and CNN battle for second place, second-quarter Nielsen numbers show the network's programs now rank one through 10 in total viewers on cable news.
Since Obama came into office, Fox has continued not only winning, but doing so at unprecedented levels. As the Hollywood Reporter noted last week, the network is having its "best year yet," with the competition in the ratings, shifting from not only the news networks but all of basic cable.
Indeed, Fox came in 3rd this quarter, behind only USA and TNT.
Across the board, already top-rated shows are up by percentages in the 30s and 40s.
But Glenn Beck, who takes aim at the administration repeatedly, is proving an even bigger draw since coming over from HLN:
His 5 p.m. slot is up 110 percent from last year. Such a trend shows commentators like Beck can thrive in the opposition.
From TVNewser:
8pm - O'Reilly Factor — 3,188,000
9pm - Hannity — 2,341,000
5pm - Glenn Beck — 2,053,000
10pm - On the Record — 1,950,000
6pm - Special Report — 1,889,000
7pm - Fox Report — 1,757,000
11pm - O'Reilly Factor — 1,579,000
9am - America's Newsroom — 1,399,000
4pm - Your World — 1,389,000
3pm - Studio B — 1,169,000
MSNBC's Keith Olbermann came close to cracking the top, having attracted 1,159,000 viewers during the second quarter.

how do foxnews perform internatinoally?
Or don’t ppl care?
We get cnn, bbc news alot here in Australia, but never fox
Sheppie squeaked into the top ten. Amazing!
I used to get Sky News in the U.K. which is associated with Fox. Not sure why you don’t have at least Sky down there.
they do have sky in australia
I am glad that Fox is # 1, but hope they don’t start the feel the need to go more toward the middle of the road to keep up he ratings.
Be careful, FOX, pride cometh before the fall.
I’ll be expecting a ‘Cheesy’ opposition shutdown in the near future.
0 can’t tolerate that.
Oh great! The personalities and shows are different though.
I am glad to see that Colmes is no where to be seen! He must be down to #90 or 100, right behind reruns of “I Love Lucy”!
We do have Fox news in Australia and we watch it frequently. Most hotels do not carry it, though. As you mention, we also get Sky News which is associated with Fox.

Just look at bill - o - reilly...
~~PING!
How about SKY News in Down Under?
That sucks you don’t get Fox news
How stupid is the obamedia??
Pray for America
We travelled to Rome last November & were thrilled to find Fox on the hotel’s cable. Not sure about ratings, but it was good to see it there. Interestingly, there were no commercials, but little 5 minute news items, done by Fox, in between the larger segments.
They really should switch GB with Van Boring.
Why O’Reilly is still in the top spot I’ll never understand. But HA, even Shep is beating Olbermann...twice.
