By September will CNN overtake Fox News in terms of largest audience?

Settled as No

No reports indicate that CNN overtook Fox News

Background:

For the second quarter of 2008 Fox will overtake CNN in attracting
25- to 54-year-old viewers according to preliminary Nielsen Media Research data.

Fox, though has for a long time maintained a lead in the overall audience intake getting 1.6 million, while CNN has gotten 977,000 Cable viewers. With the election heating up and political coverage over taking the Cable News networks will CNN be able to over take Fox's lead in over all audience viewing?
