Here is video of Bill O'Reilly tonight talking about the absolute dominance of Fox News over its three cable competitors - CNN, MSNBC, CNN Headline News. The numbers from last week were amazing for Fox News, and for The O'Reilly Factor in particular. In the 8 pm edt time slot, O'Reilly beat CNN by 380%, MSNBC by 247%, and Headline News by 299%.

The O'Reilly Factor now has a larger audience than the CBS Evening News, 5.4 million to 5.368 million viewers. . . . . . (Watch Video)

I like it.

Except it’s galling that the triangulating windbag, Bill O’Blowhearty, has to lead the way.

{Except it’s galling that the triangulating windbag, Bill O’Blowhearty, has to lead the way.}

I wonder how long that can last. Did anyone see his article in Parade magazine yesterday - What President Obama Can Teach America’s Kids. It’s pretty sick or slick - guess it was part of the deal he made to get the interview with him. I’m just guessing here...

He’s not welcome in my house any longer - hasn’t been for several weeks now. I have a hunch his ratings are going to steadily decline (and the Parade article will help accomplish that) as I know many folks who won’t turn his show on any longer.

Imagine how well he’d do if conservatives liked him.

Fox isn’t in the tank for Obama....it’s the only mass media television news that isn’t. It IS fair and balanced.

Just not quite as leftist as the others.

I wouldn’t let that article bother you, Thank You Rush.

I read it as well, and I wasn’t offended by it.

It was just a “basic life”-type article that anyone could have written about anyone.

I separate the political from the non-political.
