Because they're the two biggest news sources?

Combined? Nope.

CNN is chronically last. FoxNews is invariably first.

On websites, CNN is 4th (43%), Fox is 8th (40%). https://today.yougov.com/ratings/media/popularity/news-websi...

On TV (amongst the big three news channels), Fox is first, then NBC, then CNN. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/124-cable-channels-ranke... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Three_(American_television...

YouGov is an opt-in opinion taker.

Furthermore, opt-in is not a conservative trait hence its inherent bias in favor of those who participate actively to the YouGov data farm.

What data are you relying on instead?
What YouGov About is describing about their collection methods.
Well in the absence of other data, I'll rely on YouGov more than you for viewing figures, thanks.
MSNBC and CNN together are almost as big as FoxNews.
