When do the ratings for these news shows usually come out? I’m curious to see how much further through the roof Beck’s ratings have gone since he started this series this week. I’m so surprized at the sponsors who have pulled out. In our market, only the .coms, GM, and Ford have pretty much stayed with him.
It’s amazing Beck has such high ratings during his 5PM time slot. Most of those who would love to listen to him are still at work at that hour.
Could you imagine what his ratings would be if he had a later spot?
He now might be #1 on all of cable at 5 pm and that includes the cartoon shows.
Found this on Drudge yesterday:
