Glenn Beck again fails to make cable news top 10

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

Good numbers on Keith, though. He's supplanted Matthews as the face of MSNBC and is closing in on CNN's viewers.

FOXNEWS O'REILLY 2,844,000
FNC HANNITY/COLMES 2,299,000
FNC GRETA 1,689,000

1. I refuse to belive O'Lielly has 4 times the viewers as Keith.

These numbers are BS.

[tularetom]

2. I don't know abou that

He's on in every fucking bar, barber shop, Jiffy lube, and quickie mart in the country. Plus everybody over 70 is sittin on their ass watching him.

3. Just cause it's on does not mean they're watching.

5. LOL!

My mother in law has a TV in every room each tuned to a different (generally annoying)channel and she rarely sits down and watches any of them. I think it just keeps her from being lonely but it drives me nuts when we visit...Maybe she's the person who is keeping fox's numbers up...:rofl:

7. I demand a recount!

I also want to know who is hosting Nielson's servers.

4. Did KKKarl help with this poll?

I can't even watch Faux. They've been nothing but mouthpieces for Bushco from the get-go.

These numbers can't be right.

6. I hate that wackjob--If he were a troop, I'd put him in harm way.

9. All these bozos...

"And there is distrust in Washington. I am surprised, frankly, at the amount of distrust that exists in this town. And I'm sorry it's the case, and I'll work hard to try to elevate it." --George W. Bush, interview on National Public Radio, Jan. 29, 2007

"The only way we can win is to leave before the job is done." --George W. Bush, Greeley, Colo., Nov. 4, 2006

8. MSNBC is not as widely available on cable services as Fox

Here is Siskiyou County CA my DEM friends in Yreka with cable tell me that Fox is available and the MSNBC is not. They had never watched Olbermann and were amazed to hear that there was a progressive newscast available daily. I have DISH so it is available. I don't know how widespread this situation is.

[Berry Cool]

10. Yeah, don't feel too bad for Keith. For where MSNBC is available, he's doing well.

About a year ago, if he got 350,000 viewers, that was a good night. Now he's up to topping 700,000...almost as good as Anderson Cooper and Lou Dobbs.

It will be interesting to see the effect his contributions have on ratings of the NBC Nightly News, whose audience dwarfs any of this.
