No wonder this country is in the shape it's in.

We'll have to wait 'til the Baby Boomers die off before this goes down significantly.

I love NBC’s ad that has Brian Williams saying, “We have to explain these VERY complex issues,” implying that their audience has a collective IQ of about 30. Could it BE more condescending?

“Hey Ethel, Brian Williams says an earthquake of 9.0 and a tsunami and a possible nuclear crisis is something we should worry about. Whatcha think?”

“But to put the numbers in perspective, the study points out that four times as many people watch the three network evening newscasts than watch the three cable news channels in primetime, and that twice as many people watch the lowest-rated broadcast evening newscast than the highest-rated cable news program.”

My sister-in-law never misses Brian Williams. I tried to talk her into watching Fox News, but I didn’t get anywhere.

My elderly mom lives in a rural area and now has DISH service, but no Fox News. She is an NBC devotee. I think when she moves to town and sees Glenn Beck or BOR, her head might explode. But I guess it’s a plus that she’s not taking advantage of having CNN and MSNBC...

Thanks for the stats. So the sheer amount of left-wing propaganda is worse than I realized.

You’re welcome...

We’re really up against it. Plus add the people watching Bill Maher, Letterman, Oprah, etc. like some of my family members.

I was watching a tv detective series called ‘Castle’ a few weeks ago, and supposedly a terrorist had hidden a bomb in NYC. At the end, we learned that the people who hid the bomb were former U.S. soldiers.

ALL TV is propaganda including Fox. Fox Al Waleed is not our friend. They are slight better than the others. Their biggest stars are anti-birthers - so they are covering up for Hussein with the others. F TV.

What’s the most popular brand of horse drawn carriage? That would also be an interesting statistic.

Two wheels or four?

“NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams” was America’s number one newscast for the week ending March 6, 2011, according to Nielsen Media Research data.

He's the only prime time major news anchor I can tolerate.
Refuse to watch Couric ... she's a joke.
ABC's Diane Sawyer is news lite ... just the evening edition of GMA.
