1. I love Buzzflash, but I think this is not correct.

My understanding is that Buzzflash's number is for an entire month, whereas the number for the News Channel viewers is any given moment.

Big difference. Huge difference, actually.

CNN gets and average of 761,000 viewers at any moment. If Buzzflash's numbers are anything like DU's numbers, they probably only get a few thousand each hour.

2. That is right but do you honestly believe that every day they have

different viewers. They are the same ones just flicking the channels. They certainly don't have a new 700 000 viewers every day or every moment. It's the same people day in and day out so I believe this is actually pretty close.
