Just stated on Fox and Friends.

O'Reilly will be breaking a NEWS organization investigation tonight.

Mod...no article to follow until tonight.

There is not only control of the media, but now there's an attempt to manipulate the advertiser dollars and the success of some shows versus others.

The only reason to watch tv and news is to see what companies to boycott.

FOx News still has the best ratings, though.

MSNBC, the most liberal, has the worst ratings.

This is a tempest in a teapot.

It isn’t about who has the best ratings.

It’s about huge dollars, lying to advertisers, manipulating audiences, AND supporting Obama.

Didn’t Rush Limbaugh suggest that people just turn off their TV’s?

This is such a sad sad situation in America, to have virtually no journalism, only an industry of left wing
op-ed hacks.

There was a movie where THAT was the plot, starring Danny DiVito...................

If advertisers can’t believe the numbers, they should think twice about where they spend those advertising dollars.

Another brick removed from the foundation of the MSM. How many more will it take?

I loved watching O’Reilly on the View (saw it this a.m. on F&F). He got in a TON of good shots, thought the prune face was good!

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

The value in this story is that it might connect the dots in some borderline liberal-enfeebled mind.

In any case, it does no harm. And if push comes to shove someday, say an impeachment trial, this will be searchable evidence on FR.

I’m going to start compiling a list of these people and organizations, and do my best never to do business or patronize them again.

The fix will be in for Bambi’s ratings for his Prime time show.

I take it you prefer Gibson and Couric, Matthews and Olbermann?

O’Reilly has some opinions that I don’t care for, and a style that sometimes grates, but the truth is that he is the ONLY major newsman to call out Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, and to tie Obama to them.

He called Obama a “communist” yesterday AND got away with it, because he was “joking.”

So, which major news personality is doing better?
