Ok, thats the last 4 days of Nielson's that have been released. I take back my 2 to 1 comment on viewership, and change it to 1.5 or 1.75 to 1 regarding viewers of O'Reilly and Hannity vs. others.

Out of those 4 nights, O'Reilly was beaten by Campbell Brown only on Inauguration Day, to the tune of around 450,000 viewers. His avg the 2 nights previous was over 1 million viewers over 2nd place, and absolutely smashed his nearest competitor on Thurs, after Pres. Bush's Farewell Address (2.4 million more viewers).

Hannity won every night he aired, though was not on Inaugural night due to an Inaugural Ball Special (Anderson Cooper pulled the #1 for that slot)

here is a link for ratings: http://tvbythenumbers.com/

and as a side note, I LOVE Lost, but my show Lie To Me beat them. Were all stunned, and hope to work longer than the next 3 months on the show lol.

Hope that helps ya out....

Yes, super. Then you can explain why their anointed candidates were so fucking owned in the primaries and elections?

I think Hannity would actively blow Rudolf Guili911ani on the air, but too no avail, sadly...

Nick - "Yes, super. Then you can explain why their anointed candidates were so fucking owned in the primaries and elections?

I have no comment on who is sucking whose cock, could care less, and the Republicans were beaten down because the electorate wanted it that way....

You asked for ratings and I gave them to ya. You're welcome.

[Nickdfresh]

I'm trying to work out what she meant if she wasn't being spectacularly rude.

Is it that lame thing when they tap fists or something?

I was thinking the same thing. But I believe it was some sort of a Freudian slip.

Thanks for the link, and it does show that there were some nights that Olbermann beat out O'Reilly in the 25-54 age bracket, albeit not many... It has a link specifically for those two.... http://tvbythenumbers.com/category/r...llyvsolbermann

By the way lazlor, you see that button on the bottom right of the posts named "Quote" ?? Hit that button, that's what it's there for...

[Big Train]

Olbermann is actually a lot smarter and a much better writer by all accounts. Yeah, he has a bit of a "mad as hell" act. But remember, he started out as a very popular, respected sports journalist on ESPN and didn't have to go political.

O'Reilly got his start in tabloid crap, then discovered he could just pander to the right wing zombies that would pay him to hear only what they wanted to hear and have news filtered and spun for them...

If you need an example of how stupid O'Reilly can look at times, we can provide the example where Bill accused US soldiers in WWII of committing war crimes and massacring German soldiers during the "Battle of the Bulge" in order to make some retarded point that the law should apply to US combat troops in Iraq.

Olbermann corrected him by reminding us all that it was US soldiers that were THE ONES fucking massacred at Malmendy by the Waffen SS, that what a douchewit O'Really is...

I'm ok with saying all of those people are douchebags. They are all in the "dissent for ratings" business, not necessarily the "truth" business. That died some time ago, in every medium.

Who cares on their whacky reporting when they have the best looking anchors in cable news... Martha MacCallum

But there's that annoying crawl bottom screen that chills my willy.


Both the networks are guilty of favoritism. Fox much more than MSNBC. Olbermann....I hope he continues to play the role of junkyard dog...regardless of whose president.

I can't watch CNN until they kill off Larry King.

Fox isn't news at all..just a snippet of story surrounded by spin...paid talking heads from nowhere that know nothing....

Why anyone would even hire Ollie North is beyond me.

Fuck...just call it what it is....the Rush Limbaugh School for Idiots.

[hideyoursheep]

Jerry Springer should get his own show on Fox opposite Hannazi. The Irish Ape Man would have his ass handed to him on a nightly basis.

Hannity and Springer.....Get On The Pole!!!

Really, Springer can bring it!

That's actually not a bad idea..... as long as he brought Skinhead Steve the security guard and his trailer park guests with him, so they could break some chairs over Hannity's head.

And the first guest on the Hannity & Springer show: Ann Coulter, of course. Jerry always has the transsexuals on, so no surprise there.
