A recent Morning Consult poll shows that independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’s backers are more likely to watch Fox News than MSNBC or CNN.
Of potential Democratic primary voters, 33,317 were asked to pick their favorite candidate and what media outlets they use at least once a week. The poll found that 22% of Fox News viewers, who also identify as Democratic primary voters, back Sanders. Comparatively, only 16% of CNN viewers and 13% of MSNBC viewers picked the former 2016 presidential candidate.

Sanders had a town hall on Fox News last month, which garnered 2.6 million viewers. That town hall is the most-viewed town hall on any network of any candidate throughout this election cycle.
The poll was conducted between April 25 and May 10, and it has a margin of error of +/- 1%.
