Hannity is becoming a flaming Liberal, lol.
Greg in for Bill. `O. Tonight, should be interesting.

I finally found some current numbers on cable news viewership (with respect to demographics). Interesting stuff. Check it out.

You know things are getting bad for Fox News when you have Greg Gutfeld filling in for Bill O’Reilly. Yes, I said Greg Gutfeld.
“Sign of the Times”
ED is a joke. They need Olberman back in that slot. might be time to retire chris Matthews. Rev AL too painful to watch.
@ninja
Hannity has a radio show in addition to his slot on FNC. In most locations, Hannity’s show is in a lineup including Roger Hedgecock, Glenn Beck, Mike Slater, Mark Levin, and Michael Savage.
I haven’t heard Michael Savage’s views (those mentioned by Tama), but Roger has stated that he doesn’t like Hannity’s ‘evolution’ about immigration, and Mark has stated that he didn’t like Hannity’s swooning over Gov Christy and Karl Rove.
I’m sure this all feeds the liberal’s view that the Republican party is eating itself from the inside out.
A little more about Mark Levin as I understand him: he his a hard liner constitutionalist and has always been very critical of the Republican establishment and its cronyism.
But this doesn’t define Mark Levin as a democrate either
democrate = democrat, didn’t intend any slur
How in the world does a show like the Five kick butt everyday?

RedBarSoup, you should shorten your nickname….RedBS….short n catchy.
@Pete
Rachel beat Hannity in both demos.
Lawrence beat Greta in the key Demo again.
MSNBC won 2 of the 3 Primetime slots in the key demo again.
anyway, what is it with all these liberals on here always saying “demo numbers are the only ones that matter!”??
yeah, if you’re an advertiser. how many liberal advertisers are posting here??
@Jayson
Thanks for the Link. It was very informative. Jon Stewart and Colbert consistently make the Top 25 cable shows on a daily basis. Those two have had more of an effect on our last two Presidential Elections than anybody else on TV when it comes to Young voters.
Jon Stewart made a huge impact on me and my viewpoints. He was the one who actually woke me up and got me to stop drinking the Conservative Kool-Aid. At first I couldn’t stand him because I believed the Republicans were for helping us as Soldiers and here he was bashing Republicans. But after doing my own research to disprove him and his accusations, I found myself facing the truth about the Republican Party and found myself watching him more and more.
By the time I left the military, I noticed that a lot of my young Soldiers watching Jon Stewart and Colbert. Like I said before, the ‘times they are a-changing’.

Time to go watch Lincoln – one of the most Liberal Presidents of all-time.

*******
I personally think Hannity’s numbers aren’t much different from what they’ve been in the past (outside of the election cycle). They just look worse because Rachael is doing so well.
