Looks like Shepard Smith is the weakest link in the Fox News lineup.

He seems to be causing his own demise, whenever that comes....soon, I hope.

I can't believe over 1 million people watch Olbermann.

It's the same kind of psychology that drives people to want to watch people inside an insane asylum. The Olbermann show is like a reality show inside an insane asylum, with Olberman being the main character dishing out his insanity. You always want to tune in to see hear his latest insane views and remarks.

And then there's that other portion of his audience which is made up of FReepers who think they need to keep up with the enemy byt watching them. Without the FReepers, Olberman's audience would probably get cut in half or more.

Greta’s numbers are very good, but I wish they were higher. I really enjoy her show.

I would also suggest that at least 100K of Olbermann’s viewers are people who watch just to get a laugh or to give his rants the MST3K treatment. The guy is a human cartoon.

I think Freepers are the only ones that watch Chris Matthews.

:-))) Thank you for bringing a smile to someone's face!

Heard gossip Beck may replace her, and that would up his ratings even more, I suspect, but I don’t think I’d be happy about that.

I'd rather see Beck replace Hannity...

They play his show in Iraq on Armed Forces Network (as they do the FOX shows. They switch back and forth. No one really watches when MSNBC is on, but I wonder if they count that as 100k viewers? :<)

Who knows how many viewers are forced to watch because the nurses ignore the incessant pushing of the call button just to get even for their cantankerousness.

Oh my! I thought torture was illegal in the USA.
