Humans Could Live up to 150 Years, New Research Suggests

According to POS: https://pos.org/whos-watching-a-look-at-the-demographics-of-...

The only big difference between Fox and other networks is that they have way less college educated viewers as a percentage of total viewers.

Not sure how good of a source that is, though. There's several (not great) sources online I can see that say the average FOX News viewer is >65. I also see that the average CNN & MSNBC viewer is >59.

But according to that POS survey, only 20% of viewers are >65 - which must mean a significant portion of their viewers are REALLY old like 80+ (or the surveys are just bad).

538 gives POS an A- for polls: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/pollster-ratings/public... - which is pretty good. So who knows?

This is a correlation at best. An interesting one, but no more interesting than "ice cream sales and shark attacks follow the same curve".

There's probably no real way of knowing exactly why Fox News has the viewers it does. We can only guess.
