The chart shows only his show against the cable news competition. How does he do against the entire television spectrum?

IMHO, most people don't watch many news shows except for their local news. When you think about it, 3.5 million viewers out of 350 million citizens (i.e., 1% of all Americans) does not indicate an attitude among people of "Must-see TV".

You would find the same ratings results comparing Jerry Springer with his competition. Some people like to watch a train wreck.

I'm surprised Dobbs hasn't migrated from CNN to FOX.

At 5? I didn't know that. Must be an interesting viewer population. How many working stiffs can watch TV at 5?

The left wingers are terrified of Beck since he has done more than anyone to expose the criminal administration of hussein obama. He has also rallied middle America together like no one else. It appears the only defense the left has against Beck is a lame attempt to use one of the ever ready race cards which is useless now since so many blacks and Democrats are coming on Becks show now.

Just think, Beck has just got started.

Funny. I don't think I've ever watched one complete show - just snippets. He is resonating with a large segment of the population, though.

Why did CNN let him go?
Most people don't watch cable news. The ad rates for local news & networks news is many times that of cable news in most major markets. (the ad rate for uni-vison is higher then that of cable news in many areas of the county, in Kansas it is equal to FoxNews!!)

As pointed out earlier 3.5 million viewers is only 1% of the population of the US, how many of those viewers are from other countries I wonder.

Yeah he's just getting started, the start of his downfall.

Most people (liberal or not) think Beck is another Jerry Springer. Just another TV ratings clown.

He has used just about every card in the deck, including the race one, for his ratings.

I wouldn't hold your breath on that one. Beck is just getting started.
