I was attempting to explain that there are millions of people listening to and watching conservative news and on those news channels they call for cuts. I am then questioned about what these media are. i say what they are and someone decides to emphasize they are on cable as if that negated my point that it was the number one 24 hour news channel. it does not. It is the number one 24 hour news channel on cable or otherwise. Who cares that there are not any on the broadcast networks. That does not mean these outlets are not important, or mass, or anything else, other than non broadcast over the TV band. > > TP> ...

The number of households with FOX news is certainly enough to qualify as mass media by even most conservative definitions of the term 'mass media' As are the syndicated talk radio shows on AM radio.
