FNC’s D-Day Hour Is #1 Weekend Show

Fox News Channel’s 10amET program on Saturday was cable news’ highest rated hour last weekend – doubling CNN. As we reported Saturday morning, the cable news networks devoted much of the morning to the remembrances of D-Day +65. The end of the 9amET hour and into 10am featured speeches from the heads of state of France, Canada, Britain and the U.S.
