That is the logical fallacy "appeal to popularity" (argumentum ad populum). How popular an outlet is has no relevance to it's reliability/accuracy. Ratings are irrelevant.
However, a study (actually, at least two) done a few years ago showed that consumers of FOX news were less informed than people whom consumed no news at all. (Or maybe it was no cable news at all...)
This was the most current link I found with a quick search.

Personally, I don't watch any cable news. I prefer to get my information from actual journalists (and a variety of sources, not just one).
