I would characterize it as the hard left communists watch MSNBC, run of the mill left wing socialists watch CNN, and the middle watches Fox.

Considering that Fox's ratings are more than the other two combined, you're probably right.

Have to concur that MCH pretty well broke it down, and the "right" gets most of their reading material at Lew Rockwell and a few similar sites.

Which is not to confuse, btw, really conservative Americans with "rightists" in the classical sense -- fascists and phalangists -- who probably don't have anything to read or agree with anywhere except perhaps Europa.com and Stormfront.

U.S. conservatives are "paleocons" not phalangists. Paleocons are anti-statist, along the lines of the late Murray Rothbard, who once called Wm. F. Buckley, Jr., a "totalitarian" for having made his peace with the idea that keeping our independence in the face of Soviet expansionism meant having to accept a large Defense Department and "military-industrial complex".
