My thoughts exactly. Good news for Fox, but overall it's a pretty damming reflection on the state of American society and the intelligence of the common voter. The news has been relegated to the same level as most cooking and travel shows.

Unfortunately if you belive that CNN and HLN are left of center, which I do, combined viewership for MSNBC, CNN and HLN is much larger than Fox.

Bullship.

I just viewed the ratings and FOX is bigger than those three combined by over 35%.

There is something wrong with your stats.

Yeah, imrealized that after I clicked “Post.” 5% of 200M is 10m. Duh!

Seems like a rotten business to attract so few customers.

Don't even bother mentioning 'ratings' when it comes to MSNBC.

This channel is in no way concerned about ratings. They do not care. They are getting direct funding from the Government and Soros-style organizations in order to continue to pump out propaganda.

Do you think the old Soviet-era 'Pravda' cared about its ratings? This is the exact same thing.

Rachel Maddow is a sacred cow, so to speak. She will not be fired.

Besides, both of their viewers like her.

So was Schultz, but Maddow got control of MSNBC’s programming and ran it off a bridge. MSNBC caught Maddow disease and there’s no easy cure.

...

Management can ease her out by setting her up with a pizza shop so she can cater gay weddings.

Problem for Air America Radio was that after a while, even Soros finally realized he was throwing bad money after bad and cut them off. Most likely they’ll put the taxpayers on the hook ( in a roundabout way ) for this lead balloon that even few leftists watch.

Reason why MSNBC reminds people of AAR is because MSNBC gave almost every AAR host a TV spot on their network. They doubled down on failure.

Still wondering when the left’s direct challenger to Rush will arrive. They’ve been crowing about it for decades but not one ever came close. The left insists that all they need is the right host but must be keeping it a secret from everybody.

My best friends stayed with me for a few days last month. We’ve been buds and have chased each other around the world for years. They’ve lived for years on end in Pakistan,Turkey and
Afghanistan. Their patriotism is not to be questioned. But when he and wife told me that they get all their news from MSNBC, and chided me for being a neanderthal that gets all his news from FNC, the temp in my den dropped a bit. He sets a great deal of store in Rachel Madcow, O’Donnel and Mathews. He was one of the last from our outfit out of the embassy in Tehran. He doesn’t appreciate any of my anti-Obama cartoons, either.
