Fox (NWS) Closes Gap With YouTube (GOOG) In Online Video

New numbers from comScore show that Fox Interactive, the only portion of News Corp (NWS) had almost 53 million unique video streamers at its websites in May. Most of these are probably MySpace visitors. They number was fairly close to Google’s (GOOG) 55 million uniques. In terms of number of videos streamed, Google still has 22% of the market to Fox’s 8%.

But, the trend does show the those watching video are beginning to look at the content posted at MySpace in greater and greater numbers.

Yahoo! (YHOO) was third with 35 million uniques, followed by Time Warner (TWX) with 29 million, and Microsoft (MSFT) with 24 million.

This may be one arena where Google does not have an insurmountable lead.
