It appears that, although overall viewership is down over the weekend, the ratios do not differ greatly from weekday ratings. FNC maintains its strong lead, owing to a loyal and habitual viewing audience.
Fox News’ share for Sunday Prime Time was significantly higher than for last Sunday, especially with the 35-64 group. Word of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s appearance on Huckabee, I guess.
CBS is going bankrupt. They are 7 billion dollars in debt. GE is trying to sell off NBC Universal and Timewarner is trying to sell off their junk mags. Things don’t look so good in the Old Leftist Media. But It’s not all bad news. Rush Limbaugh is going to buy the St.Louis Rams for over 900 million dollars. Is ABC going out of business too? Hey Rupert it’s time to make your move. It’s all part of our plan. And we do have a detailed plan for taking over. You Leftists can have PBS. LOL!! MARXIST=DEMOCRATS=TERRORIST All the same.
Everyone in America should be watching and recording Glenn Beck…..the secret is out…and Traditional America better get on Board before the secular Progressives destroy us from within—WAKE UP AMERICA…Watch Glenn Beck even if you are a dead set Born Democrat, and cannot stand him…YOU MUST WATCH AND LISTEN
I agree that Beck is doing a great job and people should be paying attention!
