No, I think it shows the number of people who want quickly-digested information, with much of the digesting already having been done for them.
That's all of the entries, not just the ones at the bottom.
Why are the ones on top "information" and the ones on the bottom "pablum?" Personally, I don't watch any of them; I get the newspaper and listen to the radio (yes, NPR).

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Your point is exactly why they do not go to the other online media outlets

if we falter and lose our freedoms,
it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

What is the "they" that you are talking about -- people listening to the Fox commentators, or the ones listening to non-Fox commentators?
Remember, by the way, that many news personalities call themselves entertainers, and not newspeople. That applies across the board.

True
I do not watch any of them OR any national or local news on TV
I mostly read

it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

I suppose the 000's are just rounded numbers

I wouldn't say heavily. Let's just say adequately.

It's an interesting point - to me.
Wendy doesn't listen to Fox and I don't believe she cares for Fox. I hate NPR, wouldn't waste my time listening to it.
Certainly we can all agree that Wendy is a much better liked person around here - and rightly so. 
but how is it that people get SO seperated in views? I wonder what happen to middle ground in this country.

Ego, self-centeredness, wussification of America, strong influence from the NFL for values clarification.
These are all signs within the realm of eschatology.

Well, it's far more a news show than Bill O'Reilly's political opinion show.
