The big three nightly news broadcasts, NBC Nightly, CBS Evening and ABC World, lost a combined one million viewers in the second quarter of 2010, according to TVNewser. These numbers are comparable to the first quarter, which saw Evening News and World News get their lowest average viewers ever, while NBC's Winter Olympics coverage helped it get their highest average viewers since 2005. (Snip) Polls going back to 1997 displayed a continued public distrust with the news media.

Okay... trying...

Their viewers are dying off.

The People dont believe them anymore!

Pssssssst! Hey MSMers! Dont look now, but you arent even the mainstream any more!
How many times can you hear: “Unexpected”, “recovery on track”, and “Tea Partiers eat children and torture puppies”? Shoosh, maybe they should open things up a bit tell folks that “white people are evil”? That might pick things up a bit for them.
Birth announcements/obituaries. Those who will never watch that crap/those who will no longer watch. They are running out of saps.
CNN going down too. As long as they continue to cover for obama, they can expect more of the same. They just don’t understand that we crave real journalism. Just report the facts and call it a day.
Yep. Probably half a million people over 40 died in the last quarter.
Smile.
Just wondering, what are the MSM News ratings -v- the Cable News?
That area is a foreign INFESTATION and a boil on the butt of the American national identity.
"I love new york" is the same as "I HATE AMERICA".
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
If that doesn't work, He will just shut down Fox News and the internet.
That way we can get all "accurate" information the government deems we need to know.
With fewer people working, one would think viewership would be up.
And I wasn’t one of them. Never watched them in the first place. Only TV news is the local news, and that just because I want the weather report.
It's their progressive biased views. The question everyone should be asking is why did they only lose a million viewers?
It takes a special person to know they're being lied to and still watch thinking it will justify their ridiculous, wrongheaded views!
Ahh, good news like this always brightens up my day.
And good riddance to all that rubbish they try to pass off to us a “news”.
Oops, a=as
A good start - but they still have about 19 million more viewers than they deserve.
Everyone is watching Beck to get the truth.
I remember radio free Europe that used to transmitt from several places outside the USSR. All Fox needs is one of theose norweigian cruise ships and their set. The added benifit is no tax (for now)
I’ll confess we sometimes watch ABC Evening News - only because we like making jokes about how lame network news is.
I love me some Glen. . . . . . Modern day Patrick Henry. . . .

LOOSERS!

Here are my thoughts. Bwahahahahahahahahaha, snort, snort, hehehehehehehehe, snicker, snicker, hahahahahahahahahaha.
“CNN going down too. As long as they continue to cover for obama, they can expect more of the same. They just dont understand that we crave real journalism. Just report the facts and call it a day.”
If they just told the truth they would be back in business. Amazing that this is their opportunity to once again be a respected news source and they will blow it for ideology.
you are dead right.
People are starting to really despise what this administration is doing, and when they see the networks supporting it and ignoring the truth, they just stop watching.
7,620,000 NBC
6,990,000 ABC
5,210,000 CBS
2,383,000 (Fox)
It would take 9 quarters of losses of 333k a quarter before Fox news would surpass CBS. So somewhere around October of 2012.
