I know damn well that there aren't double the amount of conservatives in this country. And I also know all too well that stupid rednecks hardly watch the news at all (so that would eliminate a big part of the religious right crowd).
Here are the rating for yesterday (Thursday Oct. 9 2014). Just look at those numbers. It's not even close:

When you add them all together and combine CNN, MSNBC and HLN their numbers are close to what FOX gets. Then add in ABC, NBC etc which are more left leaning as well.
To me it is like this. If you have a town with 1 burger joint and five pizza places. Those pizza places will split the customers that want pizza on any given night, but the burger joint gets all of the customers who are in the mood for a burger.
I agree with you that FOX likely has the more entertaining pundits like Hannity and O'Riley. I don't really watch any of those guys (on any station), but from what I have seen, if you share the beliefs of these guys they do a good job entertaining you.
