		<description>The mainstream media reminds me of the domestic car companies&#039; position 15 years ago. They are ignoring the customer and are trying to sell what nobody&#039;s buying. And we know what&#039;s happened to the domestic automakers, don&#039;t we?</description>

		<description>Your comparing free TV to cable?
Is that what your trying to sell here?
Good try.
Spin it anyway you like.
The fact is people are flocking to FNC and leaving the dinosaurs in droves and the numbers bear that out.
When O&#039;Reilly on cable has more viewers then Katy Couric you guys have problems.
Put another way, how many cable shows are in the top 20? Answer: Zero
Top 40: Zero
But you want to compare FNC to free tv news.
Typical misleading lib.
Hows that hopey changy thing working out with your boy Obama?
I guess you think his poll numbers are going down because he&#039;s not as leftwing as the country.</description>

		<description>Sorry to pop your bubble but the numbers quoted above are weekly combined averages. (BTW comparing cable to broadcast is apples to oranges) 

As of September 7, 2009 

CBS  Prime time News 5 million viewers per day 

NBC  Prime time news 4 million viewers per day

FAUX Prime time news 1.2 million. viewers per day

ABC  Prime time news 1.03 million viewers per day  

CNN averaged 598,000 viewers per day 

MSNBC – 392,000 viewers per day. 

looks like the majority are looking for that *fair and balanced* elsewhere.

sorry guys, the south will NOT rise again, you&#039;ll have to keep using those robes for choir practice not clan meetings.</description>

		<description>For all the idiots that twist themselves into pretzels trying to rationalize why Fox blows everyones ratings away.
Its really quite simple.
Its human nature to gravitate to things which we agree with.
Just go to dailykos and see how many rightwing people post there.
Go to townhall and see how many leftwing people post there.
They&#039;re both, for the most part echo-chambers.
The American people, for the most part trust Fox news and those who say they&#039;re  not fair and balanced only prove that they don&#039;t really watch it.</description>

		<description>@Janet: Nor did I hear Jenkins laugh AT anyone. I saw and heard her laugh, however. Nervously. Just as a lot of our representatives have done at these meetings -- Democrat AND Republican. All of them deserve a lot of credit for conducting these meetings and subjecting themselves to the slings and arrows, unlike those who ducked out in some way. As for the &quot;Great White Hope&quot; comment, it was not a good expression to use (even though &quot;white polluters&quot; is no better). She wanted to convey that we are in need of a charismatic leader who is not so socialistic. In fact, a great black hope would be even better. I wonder which Crayola crayon will be renamed first -- change &quot;black&quot; to &quot;coal&quot;, and &quot;white&quot; to &quot;blank&quot;. Don&#039;t laugh. The word &quot;gay&quot; was highjacked long ago. We are far too sensitive.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s too bad that Axelrod and Emanuel changed the original format of Obama&#039;s school talk session, under pressure. The original lesson plan was going to ask children to “write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president.” With the devastating loss of an excellent csar/adviser like Van Jones, he could use the help from students. It&#039;s obvious that the Liberal Democrats can&#039;t provide it. Maybe he can entice Michael Moore onto the Whitehouse Staff. He hates Capitalism and almost everything else about the U,S,, so he would fit right in and make a good csar.</description>

		<description>GOODNIGHT Sharon!!!! My goodness you are so far gone..........Please listen to Russ and Mike and the others who have ask you to at least make some logical point. By the way I don&#039;t believe Sharon watches FOX, she just reads about it in places such HuffPO, I watch Glenn Beck and when you read and watch sections of Glenn&#039;s show on the lib sites you see how they change, leave out, and distort what has been said. Sharon has repeated several times &quot;What about Lynn Jenkins ?&quot; Never heard of her until Sharon threw the name out there, a R Rep from Kansas who said something about &quot;Great White Hope&quot; for 2010 then according to the libs she laughed at a town haller because her little boy does not have health insurance, and ofcourse Sharon still believes Dan Rather told the truth about Bush being AWOL. Sharon do you really believe what Lynn Jenkins has said is worse than what the many Democrats have said in the town hall meetings? I watched the video and I did not hear her laugh at the town haller!!!!</description>

		<description>Wow Sharon... you have some anger management issues.  Do you need a hug, hmmm?  Speaking about credibility, I think you have lost all of yours with your stupid rantings over the last 4 days.  Just go to sleep like Mike suggested.  You might feel better in 2012.</description>

		<description>My eyes are wide open Mike, go back to swallowing Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity, and Coultergeist&#039;s cum while gladly bending over infront of Warren Jeffs. I imagine you must be parched and dry at this point. Your party already diminished this country far enough thank you. I accepted the facts about Van Jones past, not what was distorted by Beck. He said so many times that his beliefs would not have effected how we would&#039;ve, and apparently still will do his job. He&#039;s not the only political figure who has had a questionable history. In addition it shows how little people thought of the rigth if they were willing to elect someone who had those ties.

I was more that willing to Vote for McCain in the last election until he picked the hopeless excuse for running mate that Sarah Palin was. That choice is what brought the experience part into play. When McCain ran on a position of having more experience than the other guy and then picked someone with less experience and less education whose beliefs were close to what conservative radicalism is, that&#039;s when he lost credibility with Americans. Hence people trusted Obama more and soon will again despite how he is treated by the right.</description>

		<description>Regarding the president&#039;s speech: It was appropriate and needed. As initially planned however, the whole &quot;package&quot; was nothing like this, as you well know. It is NOT appropriate for ANY president (or his staff) to ask school children to sing the praises of any individual in government, to write about what they can do to help HIM, to be made to respond as did the 11 year old girl at that infamous town hall meeting. (&quot;Why do so many people pick on you?&quot;) Had FNC not brought attention to this indoctrination package, we would have had an American president basically saying to school children &quot;Ask not what your President can do for you; rather, ask what you can do for your President.&quot; A subtle, but extremely critical, difference that proponents of an entitlement society cannot or will not recognize. Once again the administration was able to do what it is extremely adept at doing: throw out some outlandish scheme to see how it plays in Peoria, then having the President draw it back in when it doesn&#039;t play well. Oh, those rambunctious staffers! When will they ever learn!

Once again, leave it to FNC to keep such rotten tomatoes from sticking when they hit the wall.

Regarding Van Jones, such people are enemies of democracy. Do not be delusional in thinking they are merely against capitalism. Van Jones is able to call a large portion of our government a-holes without being thrown into jail. Any true American would defend his right to do that. He is free to sign a petition blaming George Bush for 9-11. He is free to be a Communist. We are NOT a country that condones McCarthyism, so he was not jailed for that. He is NOT free, however, to be put into a position with the power and inclination to subvert the very freedoms he and we enjoy.

&quot;Your freedom to swing your fist ends at my nose.&quot;</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Regarding the president&#8217;s speech: It was appropriate and needed. As initially planned however, the whole &#8220;package&#8221; was nothing like this, as you well know. It is NOT appropriate for ANY president (or his staff) to ask school children to sing the praises of any individual in government, to write about what they can do to help HIM, to be made to respond as did the 11 year old girl at that infamous town hall meeting. (&#8220;Why do so many people pick on you?&#8221;) Had FNC not brought attention to this indoctrination package, we would have had an American president basically saying to school children &#8220;Ask not what your President can do for you; rather, ask what you can do for your President.&#8221; A subtle, but extremely critical, difference that proponents of an entitlement society cannot or will not recognize. Once again the administration was able to do what it is extremely adept at doing: throw out some outlandish scheme to see how it plays in Peoria, then having the President draw it back in when it doesn&#8217;t play well. Oh, those rambunctious staffers! When will they ever learn!</p>
<p>Once again, leave it to FNC to keep such rotten tomatoes from sticking when they hit the wall.</p>

		<description>Sharon... what f*cking planet are you from?! I thought I&#039;ve seen the the most stupid and ignorant people in my lifetime at one time or another... now I know where they all originated from!
All the facts for everything you&#039;ve been defending here are readily available to anyone who chooses to seek them out in all forms of print and recorded media. But like so many other people that have elected to suck the sweat off of Obama&#039;s testicles, you choose not to accept the truth, period. It&#039;s people like you and your &quot;leiutenant&#039;s&quot; on this thread, running around with blinders on and drowning in the troft of Kool-Aid that will diminsh the greatness of what this country once was.
You only accept what the &quot;left&quot; media spoon feeds you, not the true facts of Obama and the rest of his nutjobs life history. What is MOST ALARMING to me and others is the fact that so many in the US blindly elected someone into office with no credible background be it in the marketplace or politics. And I know what you&#039;re going to say and sorry dear, but srving one term as a state official and only half a term in the US senate does not qualify. Yes dear... he only served a half a term, the rest of the time he was out campaigning for the presidency.
I pose this question to you and your fellow supporters on this thread... see if you can guess the correct person it is describing....

The nation was in shambles. A previous ruler had led the country into an unnecessary war, the economy was failing, and a sense of depression filled the air. Then, a new leader emerged. He was a powerful speaker, offering hope, change, and a fix to the economy. He wrote two books about his experiences and used his literary work to propel him to success. He was an open christian with some muslim friends. He called for unity and considered himself an advocate of peace. Some of his political opponents cast him as naive and inexperienced. He also had alot of radical ties, but the media, and ultimately the voters, were willing to overlook that. 

Who is he?

Based on your limited intelligence as portrayed here by you, I know you&#039;ll get it wrong. Do us all a favor and go to sleep... we&#039;ll leave a wakeup call for you for 2012.</description>

		<description>Did watch the speech Sharon. Good speech and good message for the kids. It was the Dept of Education putting out a curiculum to go along with the speech that bothered most of us. Writing letters on how to help the president?? How about letters on how to help the country or how the country inspires you --not how the pres inspires you. Its not all about Obama. In any event once they took back the illegal curiculum(it is against the law for the Dept of Ed to write a curiculum) everything was ok. The text of the speech was great.

By the way do you use the*** with your cuss words because you don&#039;t know how to spell them, because you don&#039;t know how to spell many other words. Its Blaffie not Blaffle. 

How did Beck diminish what little character Jones had? He said he was a communist, which Jones admitted to and showed videos of crude and racial remarks he actually said. He showed the actual signed petition for the truthers. I am sorry but Van Jones had no character to diminish.</description>

		<description>Sharon, do you have a real job or are you a government employee/welfare recipient?  You have been running your mouth on this site for a long time over the past couple of days.  You keep running around in circles with the ocassional back pedaling thrown in for good measure just to cover your backside.  Although a lot of what Van Jones said in the past didn&#039;t really relate to the job he was &quot;handpicked&quot; to do, it should worry you that someone with those beliefs could be so close to the President.  Obama said it himself....&quot;judge me by the people I surround myself with.&quot;  Enough said.</description>

		<description>Or maybe we couldn&#039;t give a f*** about what you morons think any more. Go ahead, follow Beck if it makes you feel like a true &quot;American.&quot; Be proud that he diminished the character of a man whose job it was to create new jobs an help the environment. I liked what Blaffle said though about Van Jones, oh no maybe he&#039;ll secretley try to indoctrinate the children like Obama, did u guys watch that speech by the way? As this country steadily turns around and Obama&#039;s czars remain in power, I will be laughing my ass off at the group that follows Fox noise and engages in McCarthy era witch-hunts against those that they fear, All the while being ignornant enough to believe that anyone who opposes them is there enemy. 

Have fun kids.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s surprising That A monster TV screen isn&#039;t essential in order to put on MSNBC&#039;s Herr Über Mann and his enormous ego. It would be very difficult to find someone more &quot;enamoured&quot; with oneself. Well maybe Rachel Maddow or Bill Maher!</description>

		<description>All I can say is “Thank God for Fox News”.
We the people wouldn’t know anything if it weren’t for them.
Other news outlets never reported on Van Jones or much of anything else for that matter.</description>

		<description>Beck had an interesting take this morning regarding the Jones resignation. By resigning, he went under even the FNC radar. Now we have no idea what advice he is offering and how. I guess you gotta keep your friends close and your enemies closer.</description>

		<description>Hardbull is a good show.I have a lot of sympathy for Chris Matthews,especially on a day when The Community-Organizer-In-Chief speaks and he also does a gun story during thr same program. We know about the afflication Chris has when Obama speaks and his morbid fear of guns. You sure have to give him a lot of credit for being able to sit there that long with a tingle running up one leg and with wet pants too!</description>

		<description>You hit the nail on the head, Blaffie.  Only in the far left liberal mind can 1.2 million ( on a good day) be more than 3.5 million or even 2.8 million. I guess that is why they don&#039;t worry about the  deficit spending that this administration is doing. In a couple of years they will just say a trillion is less than a million. Problem solved.</description>

		<description>You gotta love the spin here. We don&#039;t have to accept that O&#039;Reilly is drawing more viewers than Olbermann because O&#039;Reilly isn&#039;t a news show (and Olbermann is??). We don&#039;t have to worry that our democracy will become a thing of the past because socialism is an economic system, not a political one. Beck has no credibility because he is losing advertising support, despite the fact that he garners a majority of available viewers. Bush was a terrorist. Democrats are Marxist terrorists. Obama is a fascist. And 3.5 million is the same as 1.2 million, if not less. Come on, people.

The Nielsons are fact. The numbers are what they are. Most of the people who get their news from television watch NBC, Fox News, and the morning shows on ABC and NBC. The fact remains that if you wanted to get the biggest news story of the weekend, the ONLY place you could get it was FOX News. If you got your news elsewhere, you heard about it only after it was all over. Of course, that is why major news-worthy resignations occur over the weekend, and a holiday weekend at that, in the middle of the night. Under the radar -- almost. Thank the powers that be for the FOX News radar.

As for Mr. Jones, good riddance. If not for Fox News, we would be only hearing what the administration is SAYING it will do. FNC is our only credible means of seeing what the administration is DOING.</description>

		<description>Beck, O&#039;Reilly, Hannity never claimed to be news shows only Keith did, so he could feed his ego. Pls. try to read the posts Will and understand the sentences. You are starting to sound like Sharon. 

We will see about Beck--almost all experts say the advertisers will be back for Glenn because of his ratings. Lets see do I want to reach 400,000 people with Chris Mathews or 2.8 million with Beck. Its all about the money.

I see many in Congress are questioning the constitutionality of Czars. Also stories on Holdren and Sunstein-- a couple of real loons. One calls for involuntary sterlization( put chemicals in the water) and the other thinks animals should be able to sue people. Obama is proving to being close to incompetent. Great campaigner but lousy at governing.</description>

		<description>Now Will is trying to say that What Olberman&#039;s ratings are with a half dozen showings of the same show is good? Keep in mind that Beck does more than his estimate with ONE show at 5PM! Its getting alittle silly Will.</description>

		<description>One more thing.... 10 PM P2+ (25-54) (35-64)    Countdown w/ K. Olbermann – 643,000 viewers (211,000) (298,000) Second showing plus first of 1,242,000 viewers=1,885,000 viewers. not to mention online showings on MSNBC.com. I&#039;ll go conservative and say another 200,000. Plus showings in the next day (two others before 8 am) we&#039;ll say 300,000 for 2 am and a scratch at 4 am with 80,000. So total at 2,465,000 for the same show. This is a conservative estimate. Not bad for old Keithy is it?</description>

		<description>Keith has only dropped below 1,000,000 viewers in the past two months (Aug he had one showing at 997,462). Glen’s 2.8 means very little since he has a whopping 8 advertisers. He is going to be cancelled soon simply because he can’t sell ad space. 55:40 of show with 4:10 of ads is NOT a good ratio. Especially considering Keith has 44:10 of show and 15:40 of ad time. Poor lonesome roads beck is running out of time. Sad for you. 

Correction, has only dropped below 1,000,000 viewers once in the past two months.</description>

		<description>Oh, and Faux News isn&#039;t news. Their a joke. CNN is news, MSNBC is Democratic talking points, and Faux is RNC all the time. BTW my local news sells more ads on 30 minutes then lonesome roads beck does in an hour. How sad.</description>

		<description>Gosh Will, you must not watch Olbermann much. First of all 1.2 million is a very good day for him. Second the quote you make about being number 1 except for Fox was followed by the statement that since Fox wasn&#039;t news ( like he is, ha ha) he is the number one show in cable news. Poor delusional Keith. Third, he mentions his ratings quite often and twist and turns to some how make his ratings look better. Olbermann watch was not wrong-- I said he said he was no. 1 not Olbermann watch.

If pulling down 1.2 million in prime time is phenomenol then pulling down 2.8 million at 5pm must be a miracle. Glenn does that Will!!</description>

		<description>BTW in cable news, pulling down 1,242,000 viewers is absolutely phenomenal. Think about how many people don&#039;t even have cable.    
Lastly, shaneY all you do is repeat the same thing over and over again. Think of something new, and maybe the rest of us will pay attention. shaneY=Retard=broken record. There, now even you can understand that!</description>

		<description>Yes, cause  1,242,000 viewers for Keith is only a few dozen.  The only time I have ever seen him speak of ratings was when he mentioned he was the #1 rated cable news show NOT on FNC. Once again, olbermannwatch wrong.</description>

		<description>Socialism refers to various theories of economic organization advocating state, worker or public ownership and administration of the means of production and allocation of resources, and a society characterized by equal access to resources for all individuals with an egalitarian method of compensation. Contrary to popular belief, socialism is not a political system; it is an economic system distinct from capitalism. This is what socialism means. Take note shaneY. Now even an idiot like you can actually understand what the word means!</description>

		<description>What I don&#039;t understand is why anyone that isn&#039;t a member of our so called &quot;Government&quot; (and I use term LOOSELY) cares about politics. Our &quot;National Vote&quot; is submitted to an electoral college so we have a 50/50 shot at winning a vote and that doesn&#039;t always mean the representative will vote the way we &quot;voted&quot; him to. So basically I feel that letting citizens vote is just a way to make us &quot;feel&quot; like we actually influence the people who tell us what we can or cannot do for the next 4+ years (Anyone remember the Patriot Act) when we actually have no impact on our own national government at all.</description>

		<description>I believe the quotation given about not working, not eating, was mis-attributed to Thomas Jefferson. It has made the blogs and e-mail rounds that way, but has been discredited in the various  myth-busting sites.
However, before the left side of this debate jumps all over it, the message itself is true. First,in Thessalonians 3:10 (KJV) &quot;For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.&quot;

And, now that those same left-leaners are ready to pounce upon the Bible or what they perceive as a Bible toter, realize this: Prior to 1964 the public school system taught in U.S. History that Captain John Smith told his colonists &quot;If you don&#039;t work you don&#039;t eat.&quot; I know because I was taught that as a student. 

This represents one of the best examples I can find of how our value system has been eroded. John Smith and the colonists have been transformed from heroes to villains. You will no longer find this anecdote in the history books. What has replaced this encouragement of a good work ethic in our current value system? Entitlement. The Great Society. The Bible cannot be mentioned in public schools now without repercussion, much less the admonition from the Apostle Paul. What has replaced this source of moral code building blocks? Something called &quot;Character Education&quot;, which is a sorry and poorly administered substitute.

No decent person would hesitate to willingly give to help the less fortunate among us. However, to be robbed of honest earnings, forced to contribute against your will to unworthy recipients is inherently evil. We reward desired behavior. Who is being rewarded in our society and what behavior are we encouraging?

		<description>&quot;Glenn is the man because he tells it like it is whether your a democrat or republican all the people who hate him and talk bad about him are either elitist or ill informed.&quot;

Precisely.  I&#039;d say 90% are the ill informed Obama nut huggers that have to defy all logic and reasoning to support his bs.  Yay, go Obama!!  We&#039;re all right behind you.  Spend us into a quadrillion dollar deficit to pay for all your ridiculous unconstitutional programs even though we as a country are bankrupt.  Oh, and you better push them through as fast as humanly possible because you won&#039;t win another term.  Hurry, hurry, hurry!!  Get us our free shi+ before a fiscally conservative president gets into office.</description>

		<description>Will, olbermannwatch delivers a couple of valuable services. You are right he doesn&#039;t get much audience but someone has to let the dozens of people who watch him  know what a nut bag  he is. Also the site is hilarious-- besides shining a light on his hypocrisy and out and out lies ( says he is number 1 rated show), they even make fun of his ankles. 

One person on their posted a line that I will never forget. The post before this person&#039;s made reference to Olbermann as a man. This guy says&quot; Olbermann is a man?? next thing you will be trying tell me is Maddow is a woman!! &quot;  Too good.</description>

		<description>Sharon strikes again. Deadbeat is someone who sits on their front porch all day, never looks for a job and wouldn&#039;t take one if offered. These people were created by the welfare system and the numbers have increased tremendously since Lyndon Johnson was president.</description>

		<description>I hope alot of folks watched Glenn tonite. If only all commentary shows could be this informative. Glenn had a room full of small business owners who quite clearly outlined how and why the government is ruining the economy by destroying small businesses that are responsible for most of the jobs in our economy. This is how TV should work-- get the facts from the folks who know the facts not some silly journalist or talking head. 

This is the exact opposite of Olbermann who relies on columnists from liberal papers( Eugene Robinson) or professors in their ivory towers( Turley from Georgetown). No one who has operated in the real world or created anything in the economy.

It should be no surprise why Glenn is having ratings at 5pm that any 8pm show would be proud of .</description>

		<description>I am a Democrat and still believe in Democrat values. People forget but democrats use to stand for  government that worked for the little guy. It seems now that these posers in office are socialist. Business&#039;s are socialist in nature because they do not want competition they frown on new and up in coming companies and want the whole pie to them selves. That is why every one from GE to Goldman, Pharma, and companies of the like are supporting this man because he is cementing their place in the U.S. economy. You can point to past presidencies that have done the same but never to this magnitude. On top of that sorry if I hold this president more accountable to his promises than past since his whole champaign was ran on change and he was voted into office by an overwhelming majority  .

		<description>Will is starting to fade the way of Sharon. Redistribution of wealth? Have you listened to anything Obama has said? So what there haven&#039;t been any bills yet? He has stated many times about something concerning &quot;redistributing&quot; the wealth. 

Glenn Beck is a racist? Thats pretty far fetched claim. How is he a racist? What has he said? NOTHING.</description>

		<description>Look, I&#039;m not saying anyone should die because they can&#039;t afford healthcare.  Deadbeats and illegals on the verge of death always have the emergency room.  That&#039;s where they all go anyway.  I&#039;m talking about healthcare as a whole.  I don&#039;t want free healthcare.  I&#039;d rather pay for it out of my own pocket before I&#039;d trust the government to take care of it.  Let rationing happen in this country and you will start seeing really bad things happen.  Nobody is debating that we don&#039;t need health reform.  We definitely do.  What we don&#039;t need is the socialized mess the messiah is trying to push upon this country.</description>
