Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity — disagree with each other. Are they both conservative? Yes.

No. But I nitpick.

Hannity is a Republican.

O'Reilly touts a big government solution to every problem, when he's not hawking his trinkets like Mr. Haney.

In all of basic cable (excluding Disney, which isn’t ad supported) FNC was the #4 most-watched network in primetime, HLN was #19, MSNBC was #27 and CNN was #30.

Still a great month for HLN, but not so much for CNN, though all four networks were up in total day viewing versus last July. HLN was up a whopping 146%! MSNBC was up 14%, CNN 6% and FNC 4%.

PRIMETIME:

FNC: 1,792,000 in viewers (419,000 in 25-54)
HLN: 993,000 in viewers (292,000 in 25-54)
MSNBC: 751,000 in viewers (248,000 in 25-54)
CNN: 630,000 in viewers (201,000 in 25-54)

TOTAL DAY:

FNC: 1,033,000 in viewers (271,000 in 25-54)
HLN: 700,000 in viewers (230,000 in 25-54)
MSNBC: 445,000 in viewers (160,000 in 25-54)
CNN: 445,000 in viewers (142,000 in 25-54)

Slowly viewers are beginning to see O’Really is a democrat..
In the bag for Zero Obama.. FOX news MUST suffer from that..
Shemp Smith, Bair and Greta may be too.. maybe even “Eddie Munster” Cavuto..

I wish their were an additional conservative news channel. Fox needs competition from the right.

MSNBC president Phil Griffin says MSNBC has begun to carve a little place for itself in cable news.

Yeah, that little place called the Moron Zone. Fortunately it is barely inhabited.

Anyone who watches MSNBC regularly and agrees with it is a nitwit. Unfortunately, I know 2 people who watch it, and they’re out of control liberals.

That may very well be true but if so it’s because of the way FNC has started to really SUCK by falling into the RINO trap. Conservatives have had a belly full and are simply giving up on cable news.

I talk to conservatives all the time who have gotten fed up with Fox, which makes MSNBC’s ratings look better by comparison.

Phil see the silver lining where his network finally achieves fringe viewership status.

If anything, FOX is commiting suicide.

The more to the left they become as they have been the more loss of viewership. IMHO the Business channel is the saving grace.

ironic- four years ago i used to battle with libs who claimed keith losermann was on his way to overtaking bill o’reilly- i couldn’t care less about o’reilly but it was comical how excited they got over losermann’s “growing” ratings despite his viewership being 1/3 o’reillys...lmao

btw: Lean Foward = Bend Over

The liberals that I know think Fox News is a fanatical right wing channel, and they refuse to watch it. My aunt started watching it, and her liberal adult kids think she's gone over to the enemy.

Well, except for Baier, Cavuto, and Gutfeld, I have no use for FNC either.

Crybaby Beck, Bill O'Blowhard, Mascara Shep, Tabloid Greta, Buy-My-Book Sean... forget them all.

I don’t think Bair and Cavuto are Obama fans or Dems. And although Greta is married to a big Democrat, I think she is an Independent, actually.
