LOS ANGELES: Fox News Channel, bolstered by viewers' rapt attention to the US-led evacuation from Afghanistan, was last week's most-watched TV outlet on broadcast or cable, according to Nielsen company figures out on Tuesday (Wednesday in Manila).
The channel averaged just under 3 million viewers. Fox News Channel outpaced both its cable news competition and the broadcast networks that typically jockey for the top spot.
