Anna Nicole: FNC Covered Her The Most

The Project for Excellence in Journalism is out with a report titled "Anna Nicole Smith -- Anatomy of a Feeding Frenzy." It found that "within the cable universe studied, one channel -- Fox News -- was much more focused on the Smith drama."

Overall, "cable news programs devoted 22 percent of their airtime to the Smith story from Feb. 8 to March 2, double the amount given the second-biggest story, the presidential campaign... Fox News Channel devoted 32 percent of its total airtime to the story, MSNBC gave 21 percent and CNN allotted 14 percent," the AP says.

FNC's response to the AP: "We've invested in covering the Anna Nicole story as much as every other media outlet, including The Associated Press."

1. I would also bet that Faux viewers buy more Enquirers than those
who watch other news channels.

2. The top two stories 1) Anna Nicole and 2) '08 presidential race!
not the war or the various Bush scandals. Pretty pathetic.

3. Foxy, you're doing a heckuva job
At least when Foxy reports that Anna Nicole Smith is still dead, one thing in the broadcast is true.

4. I hope that Howard K. Stern puts them (Fox) at the top of his list of
Media to sue. He is in the process of hiring Lin Wood to get millions from all the media that have convicted him of killing Anna Nicole. Lin Wood loves money and will pursue them with vengeance.

6. Many of the meds in her bloodstream
were from prescriptions in Howard K. Stern's name.
Now how does THAT happen?!

7. Has Howard been convicted in a court of law? I must have missed that.
We don't know what is truth and what is fiction made up by Fox, Court TV, Nancy Grace and TMZ.

Anna Nicole Smith was a strong-willed woman who made her own decisions and choices in her life. There is no person that could have forced her to do anything against her will.

Anyhow this doesn't effect my life or the lives of millions who are following this media event 24/7.

5. I really don't mind that FoxNews viewers watch this crap all the time...
...as long as they stay home on election day.
