Remember last week how
MSNBobody
Cares made this huge deal about
Choosing the Next President by being live at the ReThuglican love fest called the straw poll in Tennessee (actually more like the broom up the butt fest, but I digress).
Well, if you even bothered to watch, or remember seeing the commercials during the ONLY programming worth spit there (Keith Olberman) and didn't know better, you'd think Tweety's show was important.
Guess again.
Here's the numbers from Saturday (I am not making this up, courtesy of
http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/?page=2)
25-54 demographic:
Total day: FNC: 165,000 / CNN: 160,000 / MSNBC: 126,000 / HLN: 112,000 CNBC: 28,000
Prime: FNC: 154,000 / CNN: 186,000 / MSNBC: 164,000 / HLN: 81,000 / CNBC: 79,000
8pm: Heartland: 128,000 / CNN Presents (7 to 9): 207,000 / MSNBC Investigates: 190,000
9pm: Iran and the Bomb: 190,000 / King: 139,000 /
Hardball: 93,00010pm: Big Story Primetime: 143,000 / CNN Presents: 211,000 / MSNBC Investigates: 210,000
NINETY THREE THOUSAND belonging to the "Money" demo watched Tweety slobber all over himself. More people 25-54 watched a repeat of Larry King than watched the heavily promoted Goofball at 9PM.
God works in strange ways. Maybe the morons at MSNBodyCares will get the message; programming for retired Conservatives doesn't draw flies (unless you are CSI). They might as well run paid programming for excercisers, at least they'd get paid for the time.
Total viewers:
Total day: FNC: 582,000 / CNN: 405,000 / MSNBC: 254,000 / HLN: 242,000 / CNBC: 59,000
Prime: FNC: 649,000 / CNN: 570,000 / MSNBC: 309,000 / HLN: 191,000 / CNBC: 159,000
8pm: Heartland: 652,000 / CNN Presents (7 to 9): 696,000 / MSNBC Investigates: 355,000
9pm: Iran and the Bomb: 601,000 / King: 543,000 /
Hardball: 194,00010pm: Big Story Primetime: 695,000 / CNN Presents: 410,000 / MSNBC Investigates: 378,000
The rest of Tweety's 101,000 viewers Saturday night WERE from the Dent-u-cream set.
And Larry King repeated STILL drew nearly three times Goofball's viewers.
Tweety, your importance is only to yourself. Eat shit.
