hannity wins yet again!!!
he destroys rachel in the demo.
@1966
Actually Hannity beat Erza Klein in the Demo
Sharpton gets 215k in the key!!! He is oooooooooon FIRE!!!!
That’s the only way Hannity can beat Rachel…when she’s off for the night, lol.
Shepard Smith got better numbers than Hannity in both demos AGAIN.
Ouch!!! That’s gotta hurt his ego.
@mark2
but not his pocketbook
Bob Beckel and the Four got higher key demo numbers than O’Reilly.
Bob Beckel for the Win, lol.
@Hillbilly
Soon I’ll be asking to be paid for doing your job.
Only 2 programs from cable news channels on the daily cable list: The Five and O’Reilly Factor.
@ratboy
winter storm here tomorrow night thru sunday nite ir your lucky it will hit you also.
Did everyone see that the Republicans filibustered THEMSELVES on the debt ceiling talks?
@AppleStinx
Wrong!!!
Jon Stewart finished in the Top 25 and Colbert finished in the Top 40, while Beckel & the Four and O’Reilly finished 98th and 99th out of 100.
Ouch!!! That’s gotta hurt!
Maddow felt bad for Hannity so she let Ezra host her show for two days, yet Hannity barely won… time to back your bags fraud.

@RedBar
Yeah, Mitch McConnell has become the biggest joke in Congress. Nobody even respects him anymore.

Foxnews defeats the Sharpton channel again.
Prop 8 / Gay Marriage to be heard by the Supreme Court.
It will soon become legal Nationwide.

Read carefully:

@Applestinx
Those 2 shows might be on the cable news channel but they aren’t news, they are 100% entertainment shows that take a shallow dip into the news…..just like Stephen Colbert and the Daily show…..so when you call out the 5 and the O’Reilly factor for being on that list, you should do the same for Daily Show and Stephen Colbert.
@RedBarSoup
The ‘Colbert Report’ and ‘Daily Show’ don’t appear on any cable news program ranker that I know of. They play in a different league. When they come over to any of the channels at the top of this post, they’ll be contenders.
Yeah, rilly….MsNBC is all News, News, News….yeah, rilly.
yay!!! my favorite poster betty is back!!!1
