I wonder how an inane comment like this can get reprinted in a news story (written by David Bauder of the Associated Press):

Since Fox is already the network of choice for conservatives, the ratings indicate it must be drawing in more moderates and even liberals, said Bernard Goldberg...

The claim being made here is ridiculous - that because ratings arae increasing, it must mean Fox News is attracting "moderatates and even liberals." Fox News's audience number in the millions; the number of conservatives and right wingers in America number in the tens of millions at least. I can see why a propagandist list Goldberg would want to make every disingenuous claim he can get away with - but why would David Bauder of the Associated Press pass on such a clearly dubious claim?
