| Interestingly, whither Fox is in the news today Fox News Finds Its Rivals Closing In Quote:
More than bragging rights among the cable-news channels are at stake. Brad Adgate, senior vice president of research at Horizon Media, an ad buyer, said he recently crunched the prime-time Nielsen data for the first half of the year on his own and came away with reservations about Fox’s performance.
“I think that there is some concern there,” Mr. Adgate said. “While they’re still the top-rated network, the gap has closed.”
He added, “What strategy are they going to embark on to rebuild the momentum they had in 2004?”
Still, no one is ready to count out Mr. Ailes, or Fox News.
“The proof is going to be once the political season is over,” Mr. Adgate said. “Can CNN sustain the momentum they have?”
Or, to put it in political terms, he added, “Is this going to have coattails?”
