I saw some startling news today. The first weeks of sweeps show the ABC TV network reaching about 10.5 million separate viewers each week.

The latest ratings on Shawn Hannity show his program reaches about 10.5 million separate viewers each week.

Shawn is distributed by ABC radio and he is on the 7 ABC owned an operated 50 Kw Am Radio stations.

Perhaps you see why Eisner said that ABC radio and ESPN would be around but the ABC TV network would not be around in 5 years. Rush Limbaugh on the Clear Channel Stations reaches 14.3 million separate people each week.

You can reach more people being a guest on Shawn Hannity's show than you can on 20/20. If that don't make your Hugh Downs I don't know what would.

Excellent analysis. I really think that talk radio and the spread of FNC had an impact on the election. More people are being give facts and deciding for themselves rather than being sheeples of the networks.

Hey, we just got Hannity yesterday on our biggest station........first time........it's not live, but it comes on at 6........totally cool!

So you can add MORE listeners to Sean. This is a brand new market for him.

And I hope he PUMMELS John Edwards!
