Media trying to outfox Fox News?

Fox News | 11-8-2 | RandallFlagg

I think this plan will work. It seemed to on November 5th 2002. What do you think?

[ErnBatavia]

Shep just about "out-FOXed" himself just the other night with this faux pas...

Sounds good to me! The other channels can advertise on Fox News all they want, it gives revenue to my favorite channel. Admittedly, they advertise because it works. I changed channels the other nite when the CBS commercial on Fox reminded me the CMA Awards were coming on.

As shown on 11/08/02 on the FNC with Sheppard Smith......

Cable and satellite companies often buy commercial time from networks and can then resell them to local affiliates for advertising on channels other than their native slot. I'm not sure how much control the network has over the spots.

If you never watch CBS, how will people ever hear about new CBS shows? So networks often buy these slots from the providers to spread the word.

Shows how desparate CNN and MSNBC are... you never see a Foxnews Channel spot run on CNN. LOL.

It is likely that they are just buying local commerical time on the stations that have a substantial audience... like FOX NEWS!

This sort of thing happens all the time in Dallas. Sometimes I think I see more of Paula Zahn on "Fox and Friends" than I see of Lauren Green.... mmmmm... sorry, I distracted myself.

[RandallFlagg]

OMG!! I'm getting my Wife to listen to it now. That was GREAT! WHOOPS!!!

[nhoward14]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!

FOFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GO SHEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RandallFlagg]

Then I was correct. CNN is afraid of Fox.

[John Lenin]

The more people see how deperate they are to attract people back to their stations without changing the structural reason why people switched away from them the better it is for us. Until they drop all the liberal commenators and liberal storylines nothing will change. Either way, we win.

This is Probably Off-Topic, but I was justing over at DU(Just for Fun), and I Was Shocked at How Many of Those Poor, Delusional Idiots Are Convinced that The Media, All the Media, Are Conservative Lapdogs!! They Believe the Republicans Get Away with Anything, and the Media Never Questions Us!! Gimme a BREAK!!

[nicmarlo]

Liberals are afraid of the truth; it's alien to them. They are afraid, therefore, of FOX, Hannity, Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Ann Coulter, Bill Sammon, (that other guy who wrote Bias), the web, books that we read, etc. But, like it or not, there's more and more conservatives "coming out" and we're staying out. That's what they're afraid of too.

The sheeple are WAKING UP and HEARING; the scales are falling fall from their eyes and SEEING; the sheeple are standing up and TALKING. We will not be deaf, we will not be blind, we will not be SILENCED, any longer! And of that they are afraid, as well, because we have a mission, a purpose, and a vision: it is for good for our country and not for selfish gain and ambition.

I did laugh when I first saw that picture. At first, until I saw the dog, it looked like a pile you didn't want to step in.:-)

[healey22]

CNN and Ted Turner did not realize what hit them upside the head when Fox News Channel rolled out several years ago and the Dimwit Dems didn't see it coming when they were hit upside the head on November 5th. Both are self-destructing and soon will be extinct.

[RandallFlagg]

Quickly! Wash your hands and spray Lysol on your monitor!!!!

[BetterPutSomeIceOnThat]

It Did remind me of a lot of the Language I used to use, When I was in 8th Grade!!

I have DirecTV. There, on FNC and other networks, I see plugs for the History Channel, DirecTV/Blockbuster PPV, etc. Even Boomerang has been pitched in Espanol on Univision or Galavision (I forget which). I've never seen CNN or the Big Three pitched during spot breaks anywhere on DirecTV.

Saw an ad for Connie Chung on FNC the other night. The VU meter dropped considerably during this ad, making it necessary to turn up the volume of you wanted to hear it well. Our local carpet seller had a louder ad.

O'Reilly advertizes on either Nickelodeon (afternoon programming) or Cartoon Network. I see a lot of commercials for him while my kids are watching tv.

If "news" viewers are watching FOX, then that is where you go to advertise your news. Kinda like toy manufacturers advertizing during children's programming. Makes sense to me and clearly an admission of their inferiority :)
