    A liberal that gets it.

  • It's always instructive when you realize that for all the talk of MSNBC and Fox, you're talking about very small percentages of the population. A really highly-rated cable news show like O'Reilly will pull in something like 2.5 million viewers a night. That's really, really good. One of those MSNBC hosts in hipster glasses will get you about 800,000.

    The average American isn't watching either one. If it makes you feel better, there are about 8 million who watch the NewsHour on PBS each week, and that's clearly the best news program on television, and by a wide margin.

    Do they still pull viewing numbers from Nielsen boxes?

  • You're right Heck.

    The Media wouldn't hammer away at this stuff if it wasn't selling. We have met the enemy and he is us.

    Yes, but it's more complicated now. So many different platforms. If you only go by Neilsen you miss an increasingly large part of the viewing public. It's getting harder and harder to figure out who is watching what, but there is a big industry devoted to quantifying it because that's how the money is made.

    Eh.. don't think so, maybe you should speak for yourself. Yes, the black population and the looney left were buying into it, but every one else's involvement was outrage over media sensationalism, race baiting, and lies.

    Don't buy what hecks selling!

  • Finally. Heck admits that us Fox News watchers are above average. Excellent !

    I'm only speaking of the over indulgent coverage.

    as in the Monica Lewinsky case, everyone was complaining about the saturation but every news source that ran the story was getting high ratings so they could hardly drop the story.

    As for speaking for myself maybe you should count the number of posts on this case.
