Okay, let’s get this straight. MSNBC can’t get close to Fox in ratings. And Olbermann can’t get close to MSNBC in ratings. At this rate, Keith will soon have an audience of one, as he talks to himself in the mirror. He is well equipped for this, since he ALREADY sounds like someone talking to himself in the mirror.

Keith got an amazing 179k in the demo on Current TV–a channel I don’t even get.

Mediate has become FOXNATION in every article and is losing credibility by the minute!!

Olbermann never had a #1 TV show. He was always distant second to Bill O’Reilly. Olbermann is a failure. MediaITE seems to keep pimping for him. Abrams should hire him for MediaITE, he would make a better liberal hack than some here.

Can “Current TV” even compare to MSNBC and Fox? Don’t get me wrong, Olbie’s a crank, but to say that a show on Current TV was trounced in the ratings by ANY established Cable network isn’t really saying much–neither about Current’s programming nor about Olbermann. I’m sure there are massive swaths of demographic that receive Current from their cable provider and still haven’t even heard of it.

I’d raise my glass to the fact that Olbie no longer has a big venue–but unfortunately, Mr. O’Donnell is doing an exceptional job of making his hour-long faux-outrage whinefest just as ludicrous as Olbermann’s before he was booted.

This is the funniest comment of the day. I would be shocked if there is a single editor or writer at Mediaite who didn’t vote for Obama in the last election. (Okay, maybe some voted for Nader.) But still….

Go Keith. I’m rootin for ya.

I actually watched Keith on his return with Michael Moore (On my TV, Current is next to FNC). He nodded vigorously as Moore stated his distaste for Obama using the “Bush model” of cherry picking evidence to back up war plans, but while what Obama is doing is bad, Bush was so much worse…just because.
Sort of like: Crip kills Blood = “Not cool.” Blood kills Crip = “You evil $@!&&!! I’m gonna make a movie about you!”
Please.

Fact: This artical reminds me of Midget wrestling. Funny to watch and this one is funny to read.

Keith needs a sidekick on his show. Someone who can expand his audience. May I suggest the following candidate?

Heh, you and the other 197,998 Olby fans.

I’m glad he’s back, but I don’t get Current. The problem with this move is that, unlike the major networks and even CNN and MSNBC, Current isn’t available everywhere. If Current wants to expand and have these types of programs, they need to reach more homes.

MARK,
Did I read you correctly?
Did you really say: “According to ratings data released by Current….”
RELEASED BY CURRENT ???

Headline: According to data released by the International Association of People from Arkansas named Steve:

NOBODY CARES!

I think it was a real mistake for KO to ever suggest that his numbers were going to beat or be close to his old MSNBC. Let’s face it… they’re not. Even if he does really really well, they’re not. And by stating that as his goal, all he’s going to do is make himself look foolish (more foolish) when they don’t.

It’s like someone saying they’re going to lose 100 pounds, but only losing 10. Losing 10 lbs is nothing to be ashamed of, but in the context of how much you wanted to lose, it’s just a drop in the bucket. That’s how KO’s ratings are going to be… good for Current, but pathetic when compared to his goal.

Nobody wants Current. I only found out recently I’ve had it on my cable system since it first launched.

At least Current can claim something it couldn’t claim before bringing in Olbermann: people are talking about Current.

Help me understand the child’s logic here:

1)CurrentTV is carried by a fraction of cable/dish/DirectTV providers, and
2)Olbermann’s initial viewing audience was 170,000 . . .

Therefore, somehow, after two days, with searing logic befitting a FOX viewer,
A)his new show is a failure,
B)his “viewership” is dwindling,
C)”getting close to FOX ratings” is a measure of the incorrectness of his positions?

Such are the mindless rantings of mange-ridden cats.

Relentless hype by Mediaite!

That picture looks like Olbermann is cuffed to the pole he’s leaning on – lol
Now watch what is going to happen. He’s going to go batshit crazy to try and draw an audience.
I won’t bother – I’ll just get the highlights here and that’s good enough for me.

btw whoever was making fun of the right with the jeans and the suit top – well????

Probably got that from FOX or Mediate. The ratings that CURRENT released were from Nielsen. Invent something else Stevie.

“the Monday night debut of Countdown with Keith Olbermann had 179,000 viewers in the advertiser-coveted–and critical–demographic of viewers 25-54″

But he probably has one million viewers in the old leftist f*rt age group of 65+.

With Olberdouche and Crazy Larry splitting the loon audience at 8:00 PM, both shows will be the lowest rated shows in that time slot.

Oh-oh. Nielsen will be Olbie’s next Worstest Person in the Whole Wide World.

I think “D” was the right choice:

“D) Low numbers for KO compared to where he was, decent for Current, but destined for fall after the initial enthusiasm drops. Nowhere near meeting his goals of beating FNC or MSNBC.”

I’m happy that he is back too. I just love watching him implode. He will get a few more viewers and as soon as he thinks that he’s untouchable he will have a meltdown and be fired…………again.

New Name: Groundhog Day with Keith Olbermann!

You made it up, so you ought to know what it is.

Olbermann preaches to the choir. As long as has has only tose who agree with him on his program he will lose.
Who the hell wants to see propagandist Michael Moore and the sick Markos clown on a regular basis?

Yeah, without any filter or anyone to hold him back, Olbermann will flame out faster and larger then ever before this time.

Kieth it’s wonderful that you are the flagship program at Current because once you have bankrupted this network wanna be you will have no place else to go.  Good luck…I know you can do it.

so Mediaite is now somehow center right… have you lost your friggin mind?

This Tool’s post is a wonderfully illustrative example of the tactic of negative accusation, collective bullying and labeling common to the progressive play-book.

To the Progressive, objective truth does not exist, and rational argument is avoided in the race to make a point…Self deception is encouraged, and spin and deception become reality.

In the Progressive ‘Marketplace of Ideas’ there is only one soup on the shelf. An unappetizing brand they aggressively sell by misstatement, threats, lies, baseless accusation and fear. They say its good for you…They care about you, and do not want you to waste your time reading labels and deciding for yourself. Its all for your own good. Now shut up and eat your soup.

Olbermann has a few good qualities and at times, his insights were spot on. However, he’s a massive blowhard, who is all ego and low on substance.

On Comcast, CurrentTV is on a tier that Comcast wants me to pay more for. Not happening. I’d watch him otherwise.

Didn’t care then, don’t care now.

My cable company also does not carry CurrentTV and I have not had a chance to watch it on the internet. Tonight I will watch on my computer because I was so upset when MSNBC dropped him. I also will be writing my cable company to add CurrentTV to their lineup.

MSNBC is available in 95 million households in the United States

Current TV is available in 59 million households in the United States

Seems like Keith did pretty good to me, seems weird that Mediaite didn’t point that fact out, doesn’t it?

I’ll say it again, Olbermann currently has the #1 ranked podcast on this new-fangled 30th century thing called itunes. Ergo there are lots of folks who would like to watch Current but don’t get the network.

Mediaite is the proxy of the Drudge Report any sort of googling and reading will show you that this is true. Are you saying the Drudge Report is liberal?

You can watch it on justin.tv but I don’t think Current gets the numbers for that I will go download the podcasts now. I was just pointing out that Mediaite neglected to give out some important info on this story, not that I am surprised. Dan Abrams still has a bug up his ass for Keith.

Became? Mediaite is a proxy for Drudge it always has been since day one. I think it is funny when the conbaggers on here say Mediaite is a liberal site. I would hate to read any website they considered conservative. They probably have David Duke as a blogger on that site.

So Keith beat Eliot Spitzer?

CNN is in 101 million households
Current TV is in 59 million households

At least we know that Mediaite isn’t much of a No Spin Zone.

More often than not, the self-righteous American media loses its “sense” of fairness!
The Current TV, apart from being new in the market is relatively small in the number of households that it reaches, compare against Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, that have been around and reach far more number of households, respectively. So the comparison is not only idiotic, it is baseless by all account, and egg to the face of those who blindly did it – without acknowledging these salient facts. In any case, the fact that Countdown with Keith Olbermann, was able to draw 179,000 viewers on Current TV is a mark of great things to come. This is in the face of the Cable and Satellite providers requiring consumers to pay for a whole package of upgrade for them to receive Current TV channel, instead of just the Current TV channel they call for. These are facts that go a long way to affect the total viewership not just of Countdown , but also of Current TV as a channel.
However, for me and my friends we are glad that the indefatigable Keith Olbermann is back on air again!

I feel bad for him. Without any viewers he is just a nutty nut bar whining in a room by himself.

If this is “The Voice of Reason” FOOLISHNESS and IGNORANT have no meaning – it is that simple!

How’s that for a Claim to Ratings Fame??
O’Donnell on MSNBC, which few if any people watch–
Beats Olbermann on Current TV, which few if any people watch—

There were more people watching the College World Series game last night
than the two of them combined!

There is no connection at all, and your attempt to creat on, and that it is somehow ‘bad’ is interesting. Your premise is false; Mediaite can in no way be called Conservative. Not following the Progressive piper down the garden path, does not equate to Conservative. Nor does any perceived connection, or not, to the Drudge Report.

As my original post points out, The progressive argument always rests on the accusation, spin and perception, not objective observation or fact. By no objective measure could Mediaite be considered to push a Conservative message. But they could not be said to push a Progressive message either, and that for you is the real issue. You seem to be suggesting Meidaite needs to be scolded or diminished because it does not push the progressive line, or frame a story as you think they should. Your desire for self deception should be your first consideration; Objective truth matters. Why do you believe as you do, and is that belief valid… is it true. The mistake is in eating the soup, and not noticing the aftertaste or how empty the shelf is. Look around.

The problem in reasoning is your attempted characterization of the issue, and the creation of the illusion of bias at Mediaite and Drudge that by objective measure, does not exist…but create it you must for your attack to be valid. It is not, and it never was.

Here is an interesting essay from Walter Russell Mead’s Blog on the Progressive movement…its successes and failures. It is worth your time regardless of where you are on the political spectrum.

http://blogs.the-american-interest.com/wrm/2011/06/10/when-government-jumps-the-shark/

Saw spot for Olberblabber’s show during Fox’s O’Reilly Factor last night; it may have been an “override” by DishNet and not a Fox spot.

Poor Keith…his love for himself is so annoying. Of course Larry O’Duh’s in love with himself too.

Wow, on Current and MSNBC at the same time — it’s a “love-fest.”

What’s gonna hurt is when Beck’s GBTV starts trouncing him. That will be fun to watch!

“On Opening Night, MSNBC’s O’Donnell Beats Olbermann Despite Relentless Hype”

I bet TAX CHEAT olbermann’s MOST LOYAL FANS – the staff at mediaite – are having a boehner over this
(P.S. “a boehner” = a good cry.).

Keith Olbermann’s New Staff on Al Gore’s Channel Is Like As Totally Super-Diverse As You’d Expect

Glad Olberman is back. He brings a lot of truth to the real news of the days. I really love it when tbaggers try to pretend that facts mean something to them in their path to deceive. The Murdoch media outlets distribute misinformation widely and without social conscience. Cannot expect loyalty to country from a propaganda machine for the GOP and owned by An Australian expatriate and Saudi Prince. The sadest part of all this, is that 4th estate was intended by the founders to preserve the democracy from dictators and wannabe be kings. And the press has let the nation down, time and again by not doing its job. Freedom of the press is absolutely necessary for democracy to survive and the FCC which is supposed to protect us from oppressors has yielded to BIG MEDIA, BIG DOLLARS and lost sight of its primary mission to keep diversity and truth traveling across the public airwaves.

Forget Olbermann!

Just breaking now, former WH Council C. Boyden Gray is running a congresional effort to VOID Medis Matters of its tax-exempt status. Gray has a plethora of evidence documenting MM’s political activism for the Democrats.

Hey Soros & Media Matters…say hello to Van Jones and ACORN on your way down!!!

And KO adds to the diversity of thought how? Your slap at Fox at times may be warranted but by implication to say a man who only has mirrors as guests is somehow adding diversity to the public airwaves is laughable.

You’re not missing anything…trust me.

Perhaps the funniest thing so far about the -0verbite debacle is that some of the hype money went into the Fox coffers; today I saw THREE 30 second spots hyping “currant” TV and -0verbite’s new show. I have blocked “currant tv” on my remote to keep me from accidentally tuning into that station.

From the preliminary reports, it would appear a lot of other TV viewers are hastening to avoid -0verbite’s tripe.

Uhhhh, does anyone really care how those two goofy, wacky, totally spaced out, ultra liberal, socialist commies did in the ratings? I mean both hoover around sewer level anyway. However, if you worship satan, hate everyone on planet Earth, enjoy kicking women and children, and are afraid of babies, then you would probably enjoy those two nutjobs.

Has anyone wondered why Mediaite has failed to do a story on “Operation Fast & Furious?” You know, the operation where Eric Holder allowed thousands of guns to be purchased from US gunshops by the Mexican drug cartels, one of which was used to murder a US Border Agent?
