   A new study just released by the Pew Research Center found that in the final week of the just-ended presidential campaign, the “Lean Forward” network did absolutely no negative stories about President Obama or positive ones about Mitt Romney.

   For Obama, meanwhile, the coverage improved in the last week. From October 1 to 28, 33% was positive and 13% negative. During the campaign’s final week, fully 51% of MSNBC’s stories were positive while there were no negative stories at all in the sample.

   How disgraceful!

   Another “source” to consider. I have no idea if its legit. It’s from 2000.

   PTPA hasn’t completed its survey of the rate increases, but early data indicates that the increases are inconsistent from station to station. Some had smaller raises. Perhaps the largest increase hit KOCE, a small station in the vast Los Angeles market, according to the station’s president, Mel Rogers. He says KOCE’s bill went up from $286 a month to $9,000 a month–a 30-fold increase.

   Source.

   If it costs as much as they say, i have to wonder who wants the older demo if their not using it.

   @Hillbilly “Why The Five is a hit.”

   Because their an entertainment show and because they always have at least one sexy girl crossing her legs. It has nothing to do with news or their opinions.

    They have great chemistry & it shows. They hang out with each other when not on TV. I missed Gutfeld’s “cooking segment.” He made a twinkie milk shake. Bob drank it & got sick. Is it a “hard hitting” news show? NO! I would argue some value their opinions…including Bob’s.

    Breaking News:

    CBS News has learned that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) cut specific references to “al Qaeda” and “terrorism” from the unclassified talking points given to Ambassador Susan Rice on the Benghazi consulate attack – with the agreement of the CIA and FBI. The White House or State Department did not make those changes.

    -Benghazigate is officially over.

    -McCain and Graham owe Rice an apology.

    -I told you guys to stop making up all these conspiracy theories and that you would end up with egg on your face.

    -It’s time for McCain to retire. He looks like a total fool now.

    @ Benghazigate is officially over.

    Oh I didnt realize that the 4 dead Americans came back to life!
    And there seems to be conflicitng stories vs the testimony given under oath! You clowns on the left crack me up!! Why wasnt help sent? Why did Susan Rice get sent out to be the poor sap with the script? Not ove by a long shot!

    “The statement released Monday evening by the DNI’s spokesman regarding how the Intelligence Community’s talking points were changed gives a new explanation that differs significantly from information provided in testimony to the Committee last week,” House Intelligence Committee spokeswoman Susan Phalen told CBS News. “Chairman Rogers looks forward to discussing this new explanation with Director Clapper as soon as possible to understand how the DNI reached this conclusion and why leaders of the Intelligence Community testified late last week that they were unaware of who changed the talking points.”
