And furthermore, Brian Stetler is a flat out, cryto democrat liar. He has a long, long history of reporting fake news and recently was excoriated by Mark Levin for his lies.

Here's the cable news scorecard for Thursday, April 20,2017: http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/scoreboard-thursday-april-20/327223

Rachael barely edged out Tucker at 9 PM, but Fox dominates the rest of the night overall, with PMSNBC finishing a distant third in several time slots.

PMSNBC is whistling past the graveyard.

THE FIVE is “fluff”, except when the dope addict and drunk Beckle opens his mouth and when Greg Guttfeld says ANYTHING at all. That show is THE worst thing on T.V.; even Dan Rather was more watchable!

Meanwhile, MacCallum will have a town hall in Ohio during her show at 7 pm tonight. Who wants to watch a town hall?

They make a big deal about her ratings when she announced she had the Trump tax return. But when she released it and it showed that Donald Trump paid millions in taxes for that year, the following night for Ratings took a huge nosedive and stayed down for a few days.

That aside the the overall numbers for the full day, Fox News still beats both CNN and MSNBC substantially.

The Murdoch boys took over a couple of years ago, but now, they are rolling faster. They are bound and determined to decimate the empire their father built.

I think it’s more of a drop off in viewers at Fox, who typically don’t change the channel to view MSNBC.

Besides, I may watch a full hour of Tucker but, I won’t watch a full hour of some androgynous scarecrow....

Which brings us to the larger point. Are numbers solid for segments, cross segments or even the whole hour?

I doubt she holds an hour, as much as Tucker and more to the point: Many of us here really liked Tucker for a number of years and even hated his ridiculous bow ties but, he is still new for a majority of viewers and as they observe how he rolls over people and exposes their lies and hypocrisy without a smile and lets them get away with their ego intact, they will become more informed and his viewership should rise.

Didn’t I read where Tucker Carlson’s first gig as prime time anchor at Fox replacing BOR - he had that human freak show; Bruce Jenner?

So it’s no surprise Fox News is swirling the bowl. I haven’t watched it for years. I see no reason to start watching it now.

Fox News Wins Night One With Revamped Prime Time Lineup

By A.J. Katz on Apr. 25, 2017 - 1:33 PMComment
FNC_Five_Group Shot 2017
It’s the beginning of a new era at Fox News. The network’s revamped prime time lineup got off to a strong start last night ratings-wise, with the network defeating CNN and MSNBC in total viewers and A25-54 in the 8, 9 and 10 p.m. ET hours, per early Nielsen data.

The final live-plus-same-day figures for prime time will be released at around 4 p.m. ET, and we’ll include those in tonight’s daily scoreboard.

The debut of Tucker Carlson Tonight in the 8 p.m. hour ended up being the top cable news show of the night, easily defeating 8 p.m. cable news counterparts Anderson Cooper 360 and All in Chris Hayes in key categories, as most expected.

Hannity easily won the 10 p.m. hour, defeating CNN’s Town Hall with John Kasich, and MSNBC’s Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell in all relevant categories.

But the matchup to really keep an eye on going forward will be in the 9 p.m. hour. Fox News’s panel program The Five now occupies the timeslot. Jesse Watters replaces Eric Bolling, who gets his own show at 5 p.m. starting on Monday.

The Five managed to fend off Rachel Maddow on night one, not just in total viewers but also in the key news demo. A Fox News victory in the news demo at 9 p.m. has been far from a guarantee in recent weeks.

The Lead with Jake Tapper is airing in CNN’s rotating 9 p.m. timeslot this week, and finished a distant third.

We’re only one night in, but this appears to be a promising start for the network as it looks to heal from the stunning departure of cable news icon Bill O’Reilly.

Monday, April 24 Prime Time (8 – 11 p.m.)

FNC: 2,848,030 total viewers (582,547 in A25-54)
MSNBC: 1,801,447 total viewers (424,425 A25-54)
CNN: 944,570 total viewers (328,705 in A25-54)

8 p.m. ET

FNC’s Tucker Carlson Tonight: 3,174,952 total viewers (636,124 in A25-54)
MSNBC’s All in with Chris Hayes: 1,515,915 total viewers (369,842 in A25-54)
CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360: 1,000,277 total viewers (351,646 in 25-54)

9 p.m. ET

FNC’s The Five: 2,758,548 total viewers (568,064 in 25-54)
MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show: 2,161,898 total viewers (523,640 in A25-54)
CNN’s The Lead with Jake Tapper: 881,724 total viewers (304,840 in A25-54)

10 p.m. ET

FNC’s Hannity: 2,610,591 total viewers (543,452 in A25-54)
MSNBC’s Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell: 1,726,528 total viewers (379,793 in A25-54)
CNN Town Hall With John Kasich: 951,710 total viewers (329,629 in 25-54)

The demise of FOXNEWS has nothing to do with the programming or the anchors. It is liberal fascism which has brought about all of that. The question is whether the Murdock Bros. helped that process along with their acceptance of the charges against O’Reilly without having a day in court. When you pay out millions to a woman claiming sexism without fighting it, what do you think is going to happen? Others will try the same with lies, if necessary, when there is nothing to lose and much to gain. Women hate the men they need to have the kind of life they want and, many, if rebuffed by attractive and successful men, will look for the chance to get revenge.
