MSNBC has solidified it's position as the main opposition to the liars over at Faux News. Olbermann, Maddow, and Mathews all beat their competition at CNN. Further demonstrating that liberal talk does sell...

Face it rednecks, despite your prayers, with numbers like these, MSNBC and it's liberal primetime line up isn't going away.

MSNBC continues to dominate CNN in primetime, with “Countdown with Keith Olbermann” out-rating CNN’s “Campbell Brown: No Bias No Bull” among A25-54 for the 11th consecutive month, while “Hardball with Chris Matthews” and “The Rachel Maddow Show” out-rated CNN’s “Lou Dobbs Tonight” and “Larry King Live” for the fourth consecutive month. Since launching in September 2008, “The Rachel Maddow Show” is out-rating “Larry King Live” by 11 percent among A25-54 (570,000 vs. 514,000).

Yes, MSNBC has revealed itself as the Obama World Headquarters. Tell us something we don't know.

Actually TRUTH sells, quite well actually.

I think CNN is starting to strive towards the truth. That's why they got rid of Beck. He was the biggest liar on their line up. Campbell Brown is easy on the eyes but she's such a lightweight. She's basically a "rip and read" type. The situation room is the biggest waste of time on the air. It's like politics for people who are entranced by "reality" shows. Hilary Rosen is a good interview but Bennet and the rest of the losers on their, sheesh.

Wait. I thought your collective mantra was the press is not biased?

I am actually quite a firm progressive voter, but there is no need for the tone in the OP and the derogatory names.

I prefer my news from CNN because they most closely let me think for myself and provide a mix of opinions. Fox has been proven time and again to be corrupted to the core by ideology and MSNBC, sadly, has chosen the same path in the opposite direction.

To see Tom Brokaw in that mix is rather jolting.

From an article date December 31, 2008:

Fox News racked up its seventh straight year as the most-watched cable news channel, delivering an average prime-time viewership of 2.1 million, 40% more than 2007, according to data released Tuesday by Nielsen Media Research. CNN placed second with 1.3 million, up 69%, while MNSBC drew 920,000, a boost of 82%.


Fox News, still the most fair and balanced news outlet, proven time and time again, still holds the commanding lead over the liberal hate at MSNBC and CNN.

Wouldn't a redneck be someone who lives in a meth lab in Lewis County Washington?

I can see where the liberals get there faulty whacked out ideas from, listening to MSNBC. Of course the libs will think that Fox is lying when they are listening to a very left biased station. Try thinking for yourseld for a change instead of regurgitating everthing that idiot Olberman tells you to say

I don't mind Campbell Brown, but I thought NBC should have given her the Today show spot when Katie left. I just never got used to watching her in the evening.

just because people watch it, does not mean it is fair and balance. I have trouble understanding the ratings given the recent election results.
