The tag team of Cooper and Schultz kept pace with Greta so at least we know an equal number of viewers are getting real news. Thank goodness for that.

Beck had almost two million viewers and he wasn’t even there. LOL

FOX wins again and again and again and again.

Thats because his demo uses him like normal people use the evening news.

They’re going to bed as everyone else is getting home, making dinner, picking up the kids, long before they think about watching CABLE NEWS, and don’t care about some old guys opinion.

Agreed! Thank the Goddesses for Greta. Without her we’d only get the propaganda news CNN is so famous for. CNN = Certainly Not News.

More viewers than all others combined. I’m happy to see these updates.

Of the prime time news shows, Greta is the one I watch most. O’Reilly and Hannity talk over their guest’s too much and it’s very annoying.

Greta’s pretty much on an enjoyment par with Nancy & Jane. Ummm.
