I found this interesting: <quote> "If viewers spent an equal amount of time watching Fox's 'Special Report' as ABC's 'World News' and NBC's 'Nightly News,' then they would receive a nearly perfectly balanced version of the news," said Milyo, an associate professor of economics and public affairs at the University of Missouri at Columbia. </quote>
That's wrong. Getting the two extreme opinions isn't the same as getting the moderate opinion. It presumes that the viewer is able to synthesize the extremes into the moderate viewpoint, but moderate is actually a different perspective on the issues. It's not just wishy-washy conciliation to both side.
