Fox News Channel's prime-time lineup saw its ratings slide in 2006.

About 20 percent fewer viewers -- and 25 percent in the precious 25-54 age group -- watched Hannity & Colmes, O'Reilly Factor and the rest of Fox News' nightly shows.

2. Newsmedia makes a huge difference to what the general public learns about their country
and its governance.

Social Security privatization, Schiavo and Katrina finally became three UNSPINNABLE events in a row, and Bush and his loyalists in the media lost their grip.

3. actually, it was the lack of such a story in 2006
they couldn't spin as easily Mark Foley, Duke Cunningham, Macaca, the Iraq War casualties, high gas prices, etc.
