President Obama's primetime press conference on health care attracted 16.5 million viewers across ABC, NBC, and CBS, the three broadcast networks that covered the even live Wednesday, according to Fast Nationals which are subject to change. It was the least-watched of Obama's three primetime press conferences to date-18.8 million tuned into his Apr. 29 presser while 29.4 million watched his first in late March.
As expected, Fox's So You Think You Can Dance topped the press conference's rating on any one network, with viewers spread out across NBC, ABC and CBS. Dance averaged a 2.8/10 and 7.3 million viewers. The presser averaged a 1.3/4 across the three networks in the 8 p.m. hour, with ABC leading the way at 1.5/5, followed by NBC (1.4/5) and CBS (0.9/3). NBC's coverage drew the most viewers with 6.4 million. A rerun of America's Next Top Model earned a 0.5/2 on the CW.
People are tired of your predictable, boring, filled with lies and misleading statements media events.
The least watched? With all that is going on in the world today - that is shameful.
But ratings for the 8pmET hour are approximate, because the numbers are based on timeslot and not program performance. Final ratings for broadcast and cable news will be out later today

i went to watch a soccer game, other than the right wingers, who spend nights cleaning their guns and watch Fixed News..most people leave the house and have a life.
To be fair that is more of a reflection on the short attention span of Americans. Who rather watch celebrities dance then learn what is going on in the world. This is why there is a small group of people in the world who have power and are using it to serve themselves and no one else.

I believe we are getting to the point where Americans are just fed up with politicians telling us what is good and bad, right and wrong. Americans are getting fed up with the partisianship that has divided this country and it is a direct reflection of what has taken place in American politics over the last decade.
They pitted us against each other and by doing so have harnessed more power in central Government then ever in the history of our nation. Hopefully we are at the point where Americans are saying Just shut Up!
