Fox News Channel took out a print ad in this week's Advertising Age specifically promoting The O'Reilly Factor, while taking a Fox-esque shot at their competition. They crossed off several 8pmET shows sent to the cable graveyard, and boldly, partially crossed off the two competing shows still on the air.

Too funny!!! This will get Keithy’s panties in a bunch!!
Interestingly, on the cover of this months “Mediaweek” magazine is Olberman’s mug with a headline about how his show beat Fox/BOR for the first week ever. Followed by the subhead “Factor that into your ad buying plans”
So, what’s the truth?
Oh No...another worst person in the world nod for O’Reilly from the Anchorman!
Olberman must be talking about beating O’Reilly in a specific demo—not overall.
OMG Keith going throw aging Broadway diva fit LOL!
8pm is a great/good time to attract the attention of We The People!
Too good/great in fact to waste on the likes of o’pinhead from the klinton snarling, hissing, school of finger-pointing!
Semper BS!
“Down With Keith Olbermann”
LOL!!
O’Reilly Trounces Olbermann in Ratings

The liberal press crowed loudly when cable TV’s Keith Olbermann beat out Bill O’Reilly in a key demographic during a recent week, but Olbermann’s ratings success has been isolated and press reports about it have been much overblown, Newsmax has learned.
MSNBC’s “Countdown with Keith Olbermann” did average 477,000 viewers in the age 25 to 54 demographic during the first week of June, narrowly edging out Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor,” which averaged 472,000 in that demo, according to Nielsen Media Research.
“This marks the first time that MSNBC has beaten Fox News in O’Reilly’s 8 p.m. time slot,” the left-wing Huffington Post screamed. But in fact, O’Reilly and Olbermann squared off against each other on only three days that week.
On Tuesday, the cable stations covered that day’s primaries, and on Friday, O’Reilly was on vacation, with Laura Ingraham filling in.
Ratings for “The Factor” dip when O’Reilly is not the host.
The viewership figures touted by The Huffington Post include Friday’s results. But on the three days when Olbermann and O’Reilly were both on, “The Factor” won the 25 to 54 demographic with an average of 503,000 viewers compared to 491,000 for “Countdown,” Nielsen reported. And O’Reilly continues to trounce Olbermann in total viewers.
For example on those three days O’Reilly and Olbermann went head to head, O’Reilly drew an average of 2,193,000 per night to Olbermann’s mediocre 1,031,000.
May 2008 marked the 90th consecutive month that “The Factor” was the leading program on cable news, averaging 2,497,000 viewers a night, while “Countdown” had less than half that many, 1,098,000.
O’Reilly also beat out Olbermann in the 25 to 54 demographic for the month, averaging 534,000 viewers to 408,000 for “Countdown.”

Olberman wishes he had half of O’Reilly’s audience.
I frankly don’t watch any of those shows as they are just plain annoying. But Olberman has such a self-righteous smarm about him, his show is impossible to watch.
If they really wanted to irritate Olbermann, they would have left his echo-chamber show off the list entirely.
Keith’s obsession with O’Reilly is creepy. Keith is such a nasty man.
LOL...or put in Daily Kos and cross it out and put “oops” then put Olbermann’s show. He just rips and reads the blue blogs anyway.
Olbermann’s show is growing though. That he’s at a million plus is scary.
Keith "Here's Jonnny" Olbermann !
Ubermann will never win in total viewers.
They find a particular demographic where they can say: “We won that demographic.” Then they repeat that, leaving out the qualifier.
I search mw’s web site and couldn’t find any reference to whiner keith’s “surge” in ratings...is it an ad?
What it says now is “Down W/ Keith Olbermann.”
