It’s no secret that CNN is rapidly losing viewers. They often finish in fourth and even fifth place in the cable news ratings and, appropriately enough, rank right down there with the Cartoon Network.
But now Compete.com and CNN Political Bias report that CNN’s loss of viewers is minimal compared to the loss of visitors to CNN.com. The website has shed more than 7,000,000 unique visitors in just the last eight months.
Fewer eyeballs on the television. Fewer eyeballs on the website.
Uh-oh.

Wrong. In March (unique visitors) CNN 38.7MM, MSNBC 33.8, Fox 17.0...Huffington Post cracks the top 10 at 13.0.
Fox has the cable answer for old white guys: make 'em victims and soothe their wounds with Fox hotties; the internet is not amenable to such a winning combination...ya need clear video to make that happen.
Pedro - where are you getting your numbers from?
BTW, CNN on-line just may well be down...as well as MSNBC AND the NYTimes....but the hard numbers for each are huge. I do believe that Yahoo news leads with, say, 40MM?....ABC, google news are up there, too
Nielson on-line...
Congratulations, CNN! You're managing to finish 5th in a 4-horse race.
nobody likes a liar!
