t there is bad journalism on a number of networks, adding that “listening to politicians who don’t know what they’re talking about can be deadly,” Amanpour shot back: “Yeah, and nobody is more complicit in that than Fox News.”

Watch:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

It’s likely that some of this sniping is borne of cable envy. Fox News Channel is a perennial leader in the ratings race. On Wednesday, Multichannel News, a trade magazine that tracks television network ratings, reported:

In primetime, Fox News was the most watched network on cable for the 11th straight week, averaging 4 million viewers for the period of March 30 to April 5, according to Nielsen. CNN finished a distant second with 2.2 million viewers, with MSNBC right behind with 2.1 million viewers. TLC and HGTV tied for fourth with 1.1 million viewers.
