1. Oh oh...Looks like "alien eyes" Scarborugh....

With only a 0.2 rating Joey "dead intern" Scarborough better crank up the bullshit even higher than he's taken it in the last few weeks. This little TV gig is all that idiot has left,when its gone,he's gone.

2. Donahue

Phil was yanked with better ratings. Apparently Hardball doesnt even rank.

6. Yeah, msnbc made a big booboo yanking donahue.

Personally, his politics are too far left for me, but his show really got a lot better towards the end when he changed the format. Having an audience and people with opposing views debating, and him the moderator worked. Once they went to that format the ratings started to climb. They made a huge mistake not sticking with that.

Olberman's a turkey, and I can't stand Scarborough.

And CNN is worse. Paula Zahn is too nuetral. They need somebody more assertive. The old-fashioned, objective style just doesn't work on cable. You'd think they'd know that by now.

Fox wins because theirs no alternative. The other news networks are a bore.

12. are you serious?

Paula Zahn neutral? Bullshit. She's a right-wing hack.

[buff2]

14. LOL!!!

Fox??? LOLOLOLOLOLOL. That's funny. Oh and by the way...the further left THE BETTER!!!

16. MSNBC didn't make a mistake. They just don't want folks to hear Donahue

The board members of GE most definitely want Bush to win, IMHO.

I think folks need to realize that these media outlets push whatever the board members want pushed and ignore whatever the board members don't want seen.

Sometimes they'll cave to public influence when they are afraid that they'll lose influence in the media market. But, they always have to be pressed when it's something they'd rather see ignored.

8. People are wising up

to the Fox Screwschannel,I believe they figured out it's a lot harder to fight a war on the ground in Iraq and Afganistan than it is to fight the war in the fox studio.Their so-called journalists are only fit for egging on the American public.Now reailty has hit home and people are seeing them for what they are,a bunch of loud mouth,spineless,self serving,ignorant sorry ASSHOLES!F.Y.B.O. GOD BLESS AMERICA AND AL FRANKEN!

5. Olbermann

deserves better. I like his show.

[LunaSea]

10. I'll second that

Olbermann makes me laugh. Seen anyone else showing off a "Faux News" tshirt?

[sandnsea]

11. Absolutely!

We need some sort of campaign to get MSNBC to give him more ad money and get that show moving up. I love it. To the point news with his quirky sense of humor and he's usually pretty even keeled. He'll at least slam Bush when the doo starts getting really deep. He's great.

7. Hannity = Jackass O'Reilly = Bla

Maybe it’s just me but Hannity is starting to be even more of a jackass lately. I used to watch it just for laughs, but he is really starting to piss me off, I can’t really watch it anymore. I still don't understand how O’Reilly’s ratings are so high, I don’t find him entertaining at all, he is an entertainer right?

[wyldwolf]

13. This just as Franken's and Conason's books are selling well...

Coincidence? I think not!

[ronnykmarshall]

15. Burn, baby BURN!!!!!

[ShaneGR]

17. And they still haven't figured out having ONE GREAT liberal....

would earn huge ratings. Hell, every friggin liberal would watch that show. What's the Daily Show's rating?
