Good news for FOX.

But they should bring back Linda Vester in the 1 p.m. slot.
Her two replacements are bloomin' idjits.

Matthews and Olbermann are #31 and 32, consecutively, on the list.

The shriekers and whiners - Matthews and Olbermann - are #31 and 32, consecutively, on the list.

I see Spitball and its host are losers.

Deal!

My 17 yr. old teenage daughter (going to major in communications next year) loves Bill O'Reilly's show. She never misses it (unless she's working on a deadline in the yearbook room at the high school).

Hello Fox, Fox and Friends First needs attention.

[Just A Nobody]

Lazamataz!

Did you see the part about England? The Brits no longer attend church at all. You've got a pastor still holding services with maybe 10 people in attendance. You've also got all these old beautiful churches being sold off for whatever.

Muslims god is not our God. There is only one God. Saying that, then who are the other religions believing in?

[My Favorite Headache]

Olbermann is the biggest liberal shill on prime time tv

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

The Muslims will tear down all those gorgeous churches.

I wish Ailes and Murdoch would hurry up and launch their biz channel. CNBC needs to be dragged out behind the barn and have its brains blown out and put out of its misery....

Remember the new rule; We can speed the death of OLD MEDIA by dropping the name "Mainstream Media", which they are clearly not. Mainstream gives 'em too much credit.

OLD Media is the networks---most of the alphabets, and giant publishers, NYT, WaPO, LAT, Time, Newsweak etc., to be differentiated from most of these cable outlets noted here.

O'Reilly is still top dog. It took an ex-FNC personality like Rita Cosby to become msnbc`s top show for the year. Dreadful showing by liberal cnn.

[quantim]

I hesitate to say this but I think many of the nitwits on FNC actually draw in viewers from the left. Why would a leftie watch say, CNN when they could watch FOX and get that 'idjit' Julian? Or Greta? Or Estrich? Or....

I agree. Old Media it is!!

PMSNBC's top show is a Fox retread, Rita Cosby.

An annoying retread.

[babaloo]

The new CNBC morning show is terrible. There is no chemistry among the anchors/reporters and the graphics are hideous. The only good thing is that they are putting the name of the stock as well as the ticker symbol.

Let's not get too excited, the 3rd place broadcast news show, CBS Evening News has 8.3 million viewers or about 4 times the viewership of Bill O'Reilly. Bob Schieffer has added about a million viewers a night to CBS's ratings over what Rather was getting.
Combined, the MSM(ABC, CBS, & NBC) has about 12 times the viewership of Fox News. Add in the other network news outlets (CNN, MSNBC, and PBS) and Fox has about 1/14th of the nightly news audience.
