rmbltmbl says: Well, you could keep citing FNC dominating.. or cite the first loser after an ENTIRE network.. will you tell us how FNC did these past 12 months?
ImNotBlue says: rmbltmbl… and a few extra letters…
Check out http://www.tvbythenumbers.com for extended ratings. They’re very good at charting that kind of stuff.
hadashito says: FNC ratings are what we may expect when a population of right wing-nut “ditto heads” tune in daily and haven’t got anything better to do than watch the Fox “News” cartoon feature that tries to pass for political news and commentary.
Ratings are the currency of the present day answer to real news and commentary. They won’t mean squat if FNC continues much longer and he boobs who views it grow tired of it. The commentary on MSNBC is REAL, accurate, impeccably researched, honest-to-goodness FACTUAL (!) , and honest commentary. FNC is political commentary porno, read meat for the yahoos who need a thrill from a lunatic like Glenn Beck.

Except for the stuff about Rush Limbaugh, which Maddow still has yet to apologies for, even though it was proven false. I mean, I agree… they’re completely factual… except for the lies.
But please, continue to belittle and insult Americans who may not 100% fall in lock step with your political ideology. I’m sure that will do wonders for you at the polls.
Haha. This is the typical type of response Fox News viewers (ditto heads) get. No one can figure out why Fox News dominates the other networks combined. How about they’re smart and offer dynamic and INTERESTING programming that actually fuels the blood flow up someones ability to stay awake. They engage the audience. Standard Americans, which includes Fox News viewers, can usually decipher and create their own opinions.
Another point I want to make is that a vast majority of news media today leans left. Why is there not an uproar from the same people that have an uproar about Fox News leaning right? Leave Fox alone, and watch your own programming!! (While trying to stay awake during “Lou Dobbs.”)
I might add, I am a regular viewer of Fox News, but am on the left on a large amount of issues. I watch Fox because it is engaging.
Tater Salad says: The Tea Party Express is on its way. Socialism and the entitlement society is going to have to go back to work for a living instead of leaching off of the government and the taxpayers!
Tater Salad says: I’d like to review the ratings but I have to go. Glenn Beck is coming on and I can hear Anita Dunn whining in the background because Kid Mao and his merry commrades are being exposed.
Tater Salad says: Olberman is just plain pitiful to listen to. Thinks he is funny or something. Get someone new and boot the bum out.

The Seven Best (Or, Somewhat Memorable) Moments Of The Jay Leno Show
After 95 episodes, the epic failure known as The Jay Leno Show airs its final episode tonight. Of course, Leno himself will be back after the Olympics, comfortably at 11:35pm all over again. Which was pretty much the problem to begin with - the 10pm offering started as a similar product to the Tonight Show, and only became more like the old format as time went on.
No Surprise Here: FNC Dominates Ratings For Palin Tea Party Speech
• With all three cable news networks carrying Sarah Palin's tea party speech and Q&A after on Saturday night, Fox News was the clear winner in the ratings. During the 9pmET hour, FNC had more viewers in the A25-54 demographic than MSNBC, CNN and HLN combined. In total viewers, Fox News had more than double the combined total of the other three cablers.
