    Morning Joe is really starting to give American Morning some competition for second place. Fox and Friends is up over a million viewers almost every day now.

    you must have missed something. I just looked on this site and it is in last place along with Glen Beck and one other but I don't remember who. It is one of the worst shows I have seen. He is so rude and always interrupting Mika.. Hope he is gone soon.
