Just In: FOX, the only one of the Big Four networks that did not carry Pres. Obama's news conference last night, finished first in the 8pmET hour with a new episode of "Lie to Me." The drama averaged 7.9 million Total Viewers, according to Nielsen overnights.
NBC's coverage of the Obama newser came in second with 6.7 million Total Viewers.
Overall, Obama's news conference was seen by nearly 19 million viewers across NBC, ABC, CBS according to the early numbers. (Reminder: fast nationals measure only timeslot and not actual program data). Final ratings will be released later today.

The telecast to mark Obama’s 100th day in office was viewed by 28.8 million people, according to Nielsen. That's a 29% drop from the president's last press conference, on March 24, and a 42% fall since his first, on Feb. 9.
Looks like Fox was right in not airing the worthless newser. They won the 8:00 hour.
"Lie To Me" is a show on Fox broadcast? Huh, I thought it was the business plan and MO for FoxNews.

What little of that performance I watched I saw on Fox News. So many libs thought it wouldn't be there but it was. Too many Fox channels for all you folks it seems.
Interesting coincidence, "Lie To Me" on FOX or "I lie to you" on all the other stations.
We must have been responding at the same moment, too funny.
