the total numbers of starting point are obviously going higher, however its demos still suck.. it seems like there is no way to pump it up..
FNC has 8 shows again.
Bill O number 1 in total viewers again. 3629
Bill O’s 11pm show makes the list.
America Live live makes the list for the first time. Not just once, but twice 2pm & 1pm.
Don’t see any other cable news shows on the list.
WOW some impresive numbers for a Friday!!!!! Look what The Five did!!
State dept in negotiations to release “Blind shiek” to Egyptian gov. GBTV
The MSNBC crowd just can’t get enough Hardballs: 3 times Matthews in a 6-hour span!
For some oddball reason, “Tingles” is hot. His viewers, I think, are like crowds gathered below to see if the guy on the roof jumps.
I don’t know if MSNBC just added replays of “Hardball” and the Ed Show last Friday because of the news background in place of the beginning of the prison docs or if that will become the pattern on Friday nights; anyway Chris got well over two-million total that night! PBS was televising Wagner’s “Twilight of the Gods” On the same night, perhaps siphoning away many potential MSNBC viewers! Of course, the Faux Right-Wing Propaganda Network always has to worry about their viewers who may be sucked up by Honey-Boo-Boo and Octagonal Steel-cage Human cock-fighting!

I never get why MSNBC feels the need to play jail documentaries on Friday nights after Maddow. They would be better served doing reruns of the best segments of all shows on Friday.

And it still is 600k short from one OReily and only beats Hannity by 100k!
@Laurence Glavin
I am guessing that will be the scheduling till the election then they go back to jail
Can’t we all just get along?
Rev. Al continues to get good numbers.
Dear Scott my son, this is not facebook, if you need to call me, there still is a thing as a HOME PHONE. So you went fishing without dear old dad? K, by the way I changed the locks
@Ratboy & Hillbilly
I Don’t think people want to read about Coffee Jerky Weiners On a AppleStix

Grow up, already.

I wonder? If a stupid poorly made video can cause the Middle East to go BOOM, should Sony release the Kill UBL movie? How will the Middle East respond to that?
