If the average age of a CNN news viewer is 62 compared to 65 for FOX, I'd argue they have far more old people than FOX simply to off-set all their young, hip viewers. For every 30 year old watching CNN there is also a 90 plus year old. Forget about an 18 year old.

Or could it simply be, young people don't watch a news channel?
