To the Editor:

Re “Fox’s Volley With Obama Intensifying” (Business Day, Oct. 12):

The White House should research what percentage of the Fox News Channel audience is pro-Obama and watching only to keep an eye on the opposition.

I am such a viewer, and I am sure I am not alone.

When I tune in to Glenn Beck, it is not because I think of him as captain of the “home team”; it is because I want to know what lies the Bathetic Bawler is telling this week, all the better to prepare myself for more e-mail combat with an ultraconservative brother-in-law.
