By my very rough estimation, for every MSNBC/CNN..other cable viewer, there’s about FOURTEEN Fox viewers.
My mother-in-law lamented that husband and I were watching those wild and wooly Fox shows when we should be watching MSNBC for get a more common sense view.
I was tired of arguing with her. She’s 80 years old but way I figure she’s got grandchildren and great-grandchildren she should maybe care about but I digress.
I bit my lip but I wanted so bad to look her straight and steady in the eyes and ask her if she was REALLY saying that Fox has 2.8 million viewers (O’Reilly’s viewers at the time) while MSNBC had a little over 200,000 at the same time and did she REALLY have the outrageous audicity to state that only those 200,000 watching MSNBC....which includes Olbermann’s mother, Chris Matthews’ mother and wife, and my mother-in-law....were the ONLY ONES IN AMERICA WITNESSING COMMON SENSE?
That the 2.6 million MORE viewers watching Fox were all deluded morons and only my fine mother-in-law, Olbermann’s mother and Rachel Madcow’s live in lesbian lover had the REAL scoop?
But I didn’t. But I really think it takes an audacity cause for all the White House and Chris Matthews’ bitching and moaning, they look dummer than all git-out what with Fox and Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck having those fantastic viewers/listeners.
Ever notice they never mention the viewer numbers on CNN/MSNBC?
You should have
I’ve finally come to the conclusion you can’t even talk to people with that mindset.
we must be in-laws! she sounds just like my MIL!
There is another site (tv by the numbers) that gives actuall numbers of viewers, but they take several days to get them posted. I check it out now and then just to read the over-the-commentary from the communists...
TV by the numbers just posted Monday ratings...holy frickin’ cow! Beck OVER 3 MILLION viewers at 5 p.m. is amazing, but here’s the stunner: LESS THAN 200,000 viewers shy of O’Reilly at 8 p.m., and over ONE MILLION ahead of Hannity! What kind of numbers could Beck draw during prime time?
