MSNBC'S 'DONAHUE' HITS LOWEST NIELSEN RATING POSSIBLE
Phil Donahue has plunged in total collapse on MSNBC with cable viewers, NIELSEN ratings show.
DONAHUE has sunk to a basement rating of a .1, according to sources, the lowest possible rating's measure available!

Last Friday night, DONAHUE earned a .1 to CONNIE CHUNG's .6 on CNN and O'REILLY's 1.0 on FOX NEWS.
Even more amazingly, MSNBC for the entire day average only a 0.2, and it was beaten by both CNN'S HEADLINE NEWS channel and CNBC that day. (FOX was .6, CNN .5, MSNBC .2).
For the month of August, MSNBC's M-F prime time is down 21% among the key demos (25-54) from a year ago. Year over year, in total weekday ratings, FOX is up 75%, CNN is up 25%, and MSNBC is flat, with 0% growth.
CABLE WARS:
Friday August 23 at 8 PM ET: O'Reilly 1.0; Connie .6; Donahue .1
9 PM ET: Larry King 1.1; Hannity and Colmes .7; Hardball w/Matthews .3
10 PM ET Greta 0.7; Brown 0.5; Nachman .2

Actually, I'll be gone as we are cancelling our cable. Too many commercials, too many repeats of the same movies, and overkill of what they consider "breaking news."

Why doesn't MSNBC run some Ronco infomercials in the same timeslot. They will get higher rating than tDonahue.

Looks like Phil Donahue's show is doing a Lewinsky.

MSNBC would get higher rating if they converted to the plumbing channel. All kinds of shows about your toilets, your sinks and plumbing.
