According to ComScore metrics for the first three months of 2011, Web sites for cable news channels are attracting many more U.S. visitors than sites for most major newspaper brands. No. 1 is
CNN.com, with nearly 8.5 million unique U.S. visitors each day. Then there's MSNBC.com, with 7.4 million unique daily visitors, followed by NYTimes.com's 5.5 million.
"But Fox News.com -
which had not always been noted for its robust digital presence - beat out sites for the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Daily News and USA Today," notes NPR's Media blog.
