Megyn Kelly breaks Bill O'Reilly's decade long streak [ Wins key 25-54 demo in third quarter]
CNN Money ^ | 10/01/2015

Posted on 10/01/2015 10:27:36 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Bill O'Reilly's ratings record streak among the coveted group of cable viewers between the ages of 25 and 54 has just been broken, not by a rival network, but by his Fox News colleague Megyn Kelly.

Thanks to Fox's GOP primary debate, Kelly's average audience in that key demographic surpassed O'Reilly's in the third quarter of the year.

O'Reilly has been #1 on cable in the demo every quarterly period since 2005. His dethroning might create some tension in the halls at Fox, but it's not as if Kelly's gains are coming at his expense. To the contrary, Kelly's 9 pm show benefits enormously from the strength of O'Reilly's 8 pm show.

And O'Reilly remains firmly #1 among total viewers, with 2.87 million per night versus Kelly's 2.53 million.

Kelly's first time at #1 in the quarterly ratings shows is a sign of her continued ascent in the television news business.

Well this ought to bring out the admirers of lil Mad Megyn, and we'll see just who the real RINOs are here on FR.

MEE-gyn is just one of the designated mouthpieces for the Murdoch/Preibus/Rove Axis of Oafs(c) and anyone who is unable to comprehend that is either blind as a bat, or deliberately denying reality.

Thanks for showing us who you are.

I try to stop watching but I cannot for some reason, she is just addicting to watch, and she looks and smile, no one has anything on that.

Well that’s honest, I give ya that.

Try to remember that she is just as scripted as any liberal leaning ‘RAT mouthpiece on MSNBC is.

LOL. Looks like that Trump inspired “boycott” and whinefest aimed at Kelly were even more ineffective than it seemed.

Kelly will continue increasing her ratings long after Trump has fizzled out and left the presidential race.

I guess is the subliminal Megyn charm that has me watching her, I’ll try to break it but can’t promise anytime soon.

Hey, it’s up to you FRiend, your reasons for watching are more benign than most. There are some people who take what she says as gospel.

>> they got rid of Sarah Palin <<

Did FNC actually “fire” her for a contractually valid reason?

Or did they just not renew her contract?

Or did Sarah simply walk away after her agent(s) failed to get her a big enough raise?

Or did she merely decide she’d rather spend her time making infomercials and appearing on reality TV?

I dunno. Do you?
