Gasping … for … breath …

Fox News gets higher ratings than MSNBC? Gotta be some shirty business goin’ on here:

Phil Griffin, president of MSNBC, says there’s something fishy about Tuesday’s ratings for the Fox News Channel, which were up significantly from a day earlier when Fox News debuted its new schedule, and he wants an investigation.

“Tuesday – you guys should be doing some investigations – I have never seen it in all my years of cable, same overnight, same everything, and they doubled their ratings in a day? It is impossible,” Griffin continued. “I have never seen it. They did election-night numbers in the demo Tuesday.”

Investigations!!!11! Serious, you guys:

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Nielsen hasn’t responded yet. But these tweeters have plenty to say:

But maybe there’s something to this investigation stuff. In fact, now that we think about it, we wouldn’t mind one of our own:

Highly suspect.
