Imus has blasted Kaplan for years. Wonder if his
slamming will tone down a bit.

The ratings drudge had up a couple of days ago showed Fox steady with O'Reilly at 2.2, Hannity and Combs at 1.7, Gretta at 1.2, Shep at 1.0 . Those were the top 4 ... all Fox.
Cnn's tops was Larry King with 0.8, and Arron Brown with a 0.5. Except for Larry King, MSNBC and CNN were tied.
You will not that MSNBC did not go up, and neither did Fox. CNN fell. Kaplan was responsible for the major decline in CNN. The partisan crap on their air is costing them money.
I suspect that Kaplan will pretty much clean house. That will give him a year to play. At the end of the year MSNBC will either be shut down or closed.
I don't know who was responsible for the Dennis Miller show but it is doing a 0.2. It has to be the worst think I have seen since Alan Keyes.

Scarborough's ratings are low, anyway, but I like his show a lot better than Greta's.
Kerry's remarks about the "fairness doctrine" are disturbing. It reminds me of the greater danger of the Democrats getting their hands on the PATRIOT powers-- which they will, sooner or later.
Are you ready to be investigated and charged as terrorists, gun owners?

I am bumping this old article so you all can read exactly what is going on at MSNBC.
And don't miss the link to ABC.

Bump!

Along his Leftward way, Kaplan has tarnished the reputations of broadcast network news departments from ABC to CNN….and he is about to do the same to ruin MSNBC. Our only consolation is that his partisan propaganda will be infecting one of the tiniest audiences in all of television. The larger lesson is what this reveals about an NBC willing to hire such a person to run one of its networks.Hiring Kaplan is not a sound business decision. Sounds more like a death wish.

Only in journalism can somebody fail over and over and over again and still be hired in a top position.
