The US most popular TV channel Fox News has been beaten by CNN for the first time during the last seven years. Preferences of US citizens were affected by the media reporting of the election campaign and the country's foreign policy. Twelve million TV viewers preferred the 'objective' CNN to Fox News that justifies George Bush's policy.
In April 2008 the CNN audience counted 62 million people, while Fox News had only 50 million TV viewers, Handelsblatt reports. According to US media experts, the reason for this change is the information policy run by the competing TV channels. "CNN has beaten all the TV channels by the quality of its programs concerning the elections," said Joe Cuthbert, a professor of the Department of Journalism of the Columbia University in the City of New York.
