Dr. Drew Leads All HLN Shows, Trails Rachel Maddow By 19,000 Viewers and Maddow trails way behind anyone on Fox but that is not news.

Of course Dr. Drew leads HLN shows. He is competing against the three loudest, screechiest, whiniest, biased (politically or legally) excuses for women on all of television.

HLN must have a test to see if a prospective female host can clear out a room of children with her voice in 30 seconds. We are left with Grace, Mitchell, & Behar, the champions.

Maddow is falling below one million more often. Dumb lib females are losing their popularity.

I know! Pretty soon she will will be doing internet only “radio” shows and promoting it by posting comments on websites. That would be low

I am not a fan of THE Five or its format. I am just here to remind everyone that I said months ago
that no matter who or what they put in this slot, they would beat everyone on the other three cable channels handily! Do you think COMCAST Management ever gets embarressed?
OMG!
It is so hard to be HUMBLE :D

Where is the post about The Five’s impressive ratings. Didn’t it beat Maddow and Dr. Drew in ratings and demo. That’s a huge hit, especially for the summer.

it does get old, but i like the FNC versus the rest matchup or comparing O’Reilly to the rest of his competitors (all day).

Mediiate does post the breakdown, which lets you see it for yourself. I appreciate that…
