Now if only Fox News would report the Rove story in a trutful way. Heck I'd settle for the on-air talent to actually know about the story before uttering the name Rove.
Fox is making me a channel changer with their laziness in their reporting.
I see hope when I read the 25-54 demographic.
I'm a Joe-Fan; I noticed that statistic too.
Go-Joe!
Yup.....he might even catch CNN at 10PM
I don't see how the Natalee Holloway Channel (formerly known as Fox News Channel) is doing so well. They really suck!
Given the initial ratings..Tucker Bowtie's new show should be gone by Labor Day...guess there aren't enough lesbians watching TV at 9PM..his co-host isn't pulling any viewers..
I agree that that story is beyond "over-covered." Time to give it up.
Last night Newt Gingrich was great on O'Reilly but to agree with your point about reporting the story trustfully O'Reilly had absolutely no idea what he was talking about and Newt took him to school. In the moringing E.D. Hill is afraid to actually take a side or give an informed opinion on this story. Our beloved Fox is better than the rest of them but even they won't, for whatever reason, investigate stories like I wish they would. My best example of that would be the Rathergate memos: there are still so many unanswered questions but Fox didn't bother to investigate it thoroughly and of course we are still waiting for the results of O'Reilly's 'internal' investigation.
I wonder how many of this number are Hannity & Colmes leftovers who forgot to turn off their TV or fell asleep watching H&C and are waiting for the TV's auto-timer to shut off during the 10pm-11pm EDT hour.
Quick question. If you had a child go missing...ahhhh...would or would you not appreciate the effort?
Honestly, it's misleading to say that the entire network's air time has been dedicated to Natalie...because that surely isnt the case. So, perhaps, u should stick to CNN.
The DUmmies ain't gonna like these numbers.
Hypothetical question. Since I don't have a child missing, I don't care about the coverage, therefore, FNC loses me as a viewer.
I'm not a big fan of the "missing person of the week" programming, but they wouldn't do it if people weren't watching it.
Your response to the question, says a lot about you. IMHO. Thanks.
I like Greta's show because it is not generally about politics. I can only take so much of that confrontational stuff in an evening. I do think the time has come to stop emphasizing the Aruba case but I am guessing it might save some lives if those traveling outside the US understand they are at risk from predators and they are subject to a legal system that is not like ours.
LOL!! These numbers crack me up.
Just so all the DULoserLurkers know, when it's not during an election period, my TV is either on the Xbox, or playing old MST3K tapes.
IOW, Fox is still on top without my help.
Like I give a flying feces!
