Obama did better at the polls than his respective celebrity ad agency/cheerleading squad did in the ratings.

[elizabetty]

Fox News has done a really stupid thing and pissed off a large number of Conservatives this past year.

[Izzy Dunne]

Don't link to the actual STORY or anything, just link to Drudge's front page and make us look to find out what you're talking about...

Good strategy.

[Biblebelter]

There was no story just the raw data.

[TADSLOS]

Not hard to do, considering that clown show FNC had going last night.

[LibLieSlayer]

Hey Brit... see what happens when you swing left to get the dims to accept you? Keep going... you might just sink to chrissy matthew’s ratings!

[lonevoice]

I totally agree! I switched from Faux News to CNN last night because I couldn’t stand the (leftward) bias on display at the “Fair and Balanced” network. I also thought Brit Hume appeared to be drunk, and I’m not kidding about that.

[marinamuffy]

I was actually watching CNN more often than FNC last night. I switched back and forth but CNN was just better. Fox’ numbers were all messed up for most of the evening, and CNN’s layout was much easier to read. I mostly ignored the commentary on both!

[Biblebelter]

So much for the anticipated Karl Rove ratings boost.

[dforest]

Yep, they are harder to watch than CNN anymore. What they are doing is so obvious that it makes you ill to watch them.

Fox and Friends is now Huck and Friends.

They are just awful.

[tirednvirginia]

I thought Brit seemed medicated or something. Maybe he was just sad or something. The entire Fox coverage was boring and MSNBC was much better.

[calcowgirl]

Count me among the CNN viewers.

The FauxNews propaganda machine has become almost unwatchable.

“Fox News has done a really stupid thing and pissed off a large number of Conservatives this past year.”

True. (Although they may benefit if we end up with a Dem President)

I watched FNC for a short while, but their results banner was impossible.

[Hattie]

If CNN replaced just a couple of their extremely partisan hacks and got some real conservatives to present their side, they could outdo Fox on many nights. Their technology is better, they give excellent reports on the campaign trails, and John King knows his stuff.

Their election night maps and knowledge is superb. I have been toying with sending them an email thank you but I don't know.

[longtermmemmory]

has someone sent this data to O’Bloviate?

[Biblebelter]

Lou Dobbs was making fun of CNN analyst Jeffery Toobin today on Wolfie Blitzer’s show. Dobbs calls the analysts “savants” and he was needling Toobin about being certain that Super Tuesday would decisively determine both party candidates. You get more straight talk about illegal immigration in five minutes of watching Dobbs than you could glean from watching Fox News for a month.

[longtermmemmory]

I think those big screen touch screens are pretty neat.

I would start with getting rid of the homicidal drunks, McCafferty and Sanchez. It is one thing for the state of Massachusetts to elect one, it is another thing for a news network to employ two.

[technomage]

Well, well. I guess I was not the only one to stop watching FNC. Of course, I stopped watching them years ago when they changed direction to the left side. If I wanted to see that, I could have watched CNNMSNBCABCCBSNBC, which I have not watched in at least 5-6 years.

I get all my news on-line, and NOT at any of the cable news web sites, and on talk radio.

[Petronski]

The CNN coverage was better.

(OMG, did I just say that?)
