MSNBC continued its rough 2013 in the ratings, continuing to lose significant audience from 2012. The problems were particularly prevalent in primetime, with some shows losing close to -50% of viewer

“Morning Joe” was down -9% in total viewers and -17% in the A25-54 demographic compared to the same month last year, which actually was a better result than many of the programs that came later in the day.
In primetime, “The Rachel Maddow Show” posted all-time low ratings in total and demo viewers, down -43% and -47%, respectively. “The Last Word” posted a low in total viewers, losing -40% of its total viewer audience and -42% of its demo audience. at 8 PM, “All in” was down -48% and -42% in total and demo viewers, respectively, placing behind CNN for the hour.

“Doesn’t matter what MSNBC’s ratings are, IT SERVES A PURPOSE. In the largely-gay NBC “Family”, it could lose a billion dollars, and they would still run with it.

It coordinates the most radical of the most radical for the Socialist Democrats and Media Matters/OFA, and gets the administration message out.”

Fact.

Who wants to watch - even worse, listen to - this freak?

Morning Joke should just give up on the 5% of the show where he attempts (but fails at) some serious commentary and just convert that segment to comedy like the other 95%.

Put in terms that the 3 three people who still watch can understand, this news is Double Plus Good.

What is 50% of no one?

If the perdcentages drop anymore they will have to start cutting their viewer into pieces.

The ratings are NOT THE POINT.

Back in the old Soviet Union, do you think Pravda and Isvestya cared a whit about their 'ratings'?

True...Sharpton's ratings could go to zero, and the suits won't care.

In other news, the Houston Astros are the most profitable team in baseball.

I’d say the answer is to get more air time for Al Sharptongue.

It reminds me of the Iraqi war. Hollywood would produce an anti-war film, lose millions, and then proceed to roll out yet another...
