After just two months on the air, Al Jazeera America is losing ground in the US.

The US offshoot of the Mideast news outfit managed fewer than half of the viewers who tuned in to its predecessor, Al Gore

Hard to believe that almost nobody wants to watch Muzzie cultural programming when given the chance.

Does that mean they only had one viewer?

Maybe they ought to show a few beheadings — live!

Or, how about stoning someone for fun!

I know. How about an Al Jazeera game show where a family gets to pick which daugher gets killed for allah?

Plane crashing for allah?

There are endless possibilities here.

“We are making large investments in programming and marketing,”

I wonder if man-bear-pig will give the money back?

[Billthedrill]

Honor killings. Acid throwings. I’m thinking a reality TV series here.

"Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life.
It was meagainst my brother; me and my brother against our father;
my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe;
and the tribe against the world and all of us against the infidel."
-- Leon Uris, "The Haj"

Well, this may show that Americans have not completely lost their minds.

[JohnBrowdie]

pravda wouldn’t have attracted an audience, either. it was a stupid idea.

[JohnBrowdie]

there is very little repeat business with the human-bomb crowd.

[Vigilanteman]

IOW, there are even fewer whack-jobs who believe in the Religion of Peace than believe in the algore Cult of Global Warming.

Who'd thunk it?

[Defiant]

Like the New York Times, they are not in it to make money.

[Iron head mike]

Camel uhhh, racing yhea that's the ticket!

[bicyclerepair]

Doesn’t matter. They have funding.

Advertisers? They don’t need no steenkin advertisers.

They have our oil money.

[marron]

Its probably an improvement over MSNBC.

Actually, I’ve been told that by someone who watches it.

[AU72]

Test Patterns do better.
