Great night for msnbc even with alex subbing for lawrence
Ratings starting to normal out. Wonder how they will fare next Monday after the holiday week? Fox won in the Demo.
Greetings…
Seems like the numbers are slowly returning to normal, maybe political over kill…
And if you peek In 1Nancy2, thanks and I hope your hoiliday is great too. We only have 23 houses to finish up on Wed.
Rachel and Lawrence show so much potential. Replace Chris and Ed with some new, young talent and MSNBC will have a winning lineup.
Rachel’s takedown of John McCain’s foreign policy, um, “credentials” was so brilliant and so intense, I recorded the early morning rerun at 4:00 am Eastern Time and watched it again. Yet he keeps appearing on the Sunday morning talk shows. Porquoi?
hannity back on top!!!
Random statistic:
Primetime Ratings
CNN – 30% of audience (25-54)
MSNBC – 30% of audience (25-54)
FNC – 20% of audience (25-54)
HLN – 40% of audience (25-54)
1966
Ouch that’s gotta hurt!
@James: Who do you think you’re b.s’ing?
MSNBC…IS..(ONCE AGAIN)…ON LIFE SUPPORT!!!
Does this mean Hannity and Greta are “ON FIRE”???
Ralphie boy, cut James some slack! Them rotten numbers for MSNBC ARE GREAT………….for them!
Hannity still under 2 million.
Ouch!!! That’s gotta hurt!
@Jayson: WHAT random statistics? What did you do, take MSNBC’s best numbers of the year and compare them to FOX News’s worst numbers? I frankly don’t care what anyone thinks of me. I just get p1ssed when I see these lying liberals distort and spin the truth in an effort to convince the masses that the official numbers above are immaterial.
Above are Monday’s ratings. Fox lead in the demo in every single time period shown.
Whenever someone posts things like “random statistics” a B.S. detector should be sounded.
Mark2, what does it say about Maddow then? If she wins in the demo she’s on fire and when she loses it’s about Hannity not making 2 million overall?
Poor poor mandow
@Ratboy: Sorry, my friend. I don’t cut anyone any slack for those who lie so much they make Robert Gibbs as credible as the (mythical) story about George Washington, his old man and his cherry tree.
These reports are issued on a daily basis. So, to me, past numbers don’t mean squat. On a list of entertainment show ratings, they may list “season-to-date” but in news they don’t.
“I am a giant can of Lysol spray. I hunt down B.S.ers, spray ‘em, then expose them.”
“For, I am Sparticus!”
@larry
lol
MSNBC…IS..(ONCE AGAIN)…ON LIFE SUPPORT!!!
MSNBC is still making a profit year after year and increasing….”life support”?
Great to see FNC on top, as usual. I shut the TV off for the week after the election. I was so disgusted by President Obama’s win. But now it’s time to get ready for 2016.
I loved when Gutlieb stood in for O’Reilly, although I do watch O’Reilly every day. His show is so interesting. Gutlieb just keeps getting better and better. I love the way he presents. I love his sarcastic wit and his take on life.
Nice numbers for Fox, looks like things are going back to normal.
