I don't know. Especially with all the political coverage due to this being an election year, I think everyone would be greatful for a day without politics. This sounds like a victory for ESPN's pregame ratings, not Fox's.
Although, to clarify, we're going to be comparing ESPN's historical pregame ratings vs the Super Bowl networks pregame ratings. I'm sure Fox will still have much higher ratings than ESPN.
I have no idea what you are talking about. My post is about the cleverness of the Fox network to blend news and sports in a creative way that will earn a huge viewership. They are in the business of attracting viewers, after all...
I actually wasn't refering to you or talking to u.. it was more in response to tomocox who is comparing fox to cnn...which brings up the constant debates on this forum about where everyone gets their news from.. the liberal biased media.. or the fox news righties....
Or for an interesting alternative we can tune into CNN. You might get 20 minutes between whats new with Britiny Spears. God damn throw her in jail already so that CNN can move on to someone else.
I do not think that will happen because she makes to many people money. I caught blurbs on how much money she puts into the economy? I did not watch for obvious reasons. But OMG!
what did the guy say yesterday that was verbally threatening the president??...they went on and on all day on FOX about it, I saw it at work, but they never told what the fool said....or what was in the "package" he left ... that scared me, I dont like Bush, but I dont wanna see anybody killed, anyone have more info??...I havent seen the news anymore yet...
Since my name was brought up, in this thread... I do watch Fox news. I do turn it off a lot too. I do try to watch CNN/MSNBC/etc, too. All TV and most other media has to be sensationalist to get any attention. I get angry at Fox for this more than one might imagine, but as a point, for nearly every opinion expressed on Fox, there is at least a counter opinion. I don't think there is a right wing TV media in America. While Fox might seem to be to the right, fact is they do a better job of taking the middle (where all media should be) than any other network, including ESPN.
Now I'm a big football fan, played for ten years and all that jazz. But I just don't see how people can sit and watch pre-game for hours:
Madden: Well now Brady has to go out their and throw passes.
Some Other Over Weight Dude: Yeah and the game plan is to have Randy Moss catch them then run into the endzone.
Madden: Well now, whats Eli Manning's winning strategy?
SOOWD: Well he's gonna want to throw some touchdown passes.
Madden: I agree, buuuut his recievers need to catch them.
SOOWD: OK lets go to our semiattractive token female reporter for an insperatioal story about how Tom Brady over came getting his tonsils out at age 12 and yet still managed to a have successful football career...
