Rachel Maddow is still on FIRE.
Rachel destroys Hannity again in the key demo.
Lawrence annihilates Greta in the key demo.
Even Shep Smith is getting better numbers than Hannity.
“Ouch!!!, that’s gotta hurt!”
Were Hannity & Greta off last night? I don’t want to read too much into these numbers if they weren’t hosting.
What hours do the “total day” numbers cover? TIA
I am sure that Hannity is crying all the way to the bank!!!
@marvin, all hours.
Foxnews wins again!!!!! Ha ha ha ha.
The Sharpton Channel cant catch Foxnews!!!!
Hannity and Greta are done…stick a fork in them.
@ Hannity and Greta are done…stick a fork in them.
Hannity wont be going anywhere. He just signed a new contract this year.
but my question is…………how come Sharpton and Matthews and Schultz arent “done…stick a fork in them”?? Their numbers have sucked and gotten smoked forever!!!

I can almost guarantee you that Sharpton and Matthews get paid WAYYYY less than Hannity and greta. Hannity for sure. That’s what happens when you’ve been doing it as long as Hannity and have a huge fanbase, you get paid more. Once you get them big dollars THEN start losing that audience, then you can be in trouble. That’s what happened to Glenn Beck. He was getting 3 million viewers then he eventually went down to 1.2 or so and on top of that he had NO ads whatsoever in the UK and very few in the U.S. because of how nutty he was.
Gotta just LOVE those American Union Workers!!!!!! watch the video!

@ I can almost guarantee you that Sharpton and Matthews get paid WAYYYY less than Hannity and greta
Soooooo if they are paid less and they dont get ratings they still get to stay??????
Oh and by the way, Beck is making a crap load of money STILL and does not have to worry about a following. Not like Ohlberman who got fired and has not held a job since!

Hannity was in; Greta’s replacement was Dana Perino.
Glenn Beck Net Worth
Net Worth: $85 Million USD
Annual earnings according to Forbes: 2012: $80 million, 2010: $35 Million, 2009: $23 Million

As Ratboy says, he must be doing something right.
@ Ratboy
Thugs being thugs. You can see the ire in their faces. They were looking for any reason to fight. Rep Geiss out of Michigan is threatening blood on the floor is this bill passes. Where is the outrage?
Looks like the union terrorists took down an Americans for Prosperity tent with people inside. They used knives to shred it up. Real peaceful upstanding folks there. Never saw a Tea Party Rally turn out like this.
Let’s take a look at how things have changed since last year. Here’s the Primetime key demo numbers from exactly 1 year ago.
Key Demo.. 2011 / 2012 Percentage Change ((y2 – y1) / y1)*100
8PM
O’Reilly… 639 / 468 = -27%
Ed Show…. 150 / 220 = +47%
9PM
Hannity…. 542 / 257 = -53%
Maddow….. 132 / 350 = +165%
10PM
Greta…… 315 / 182 = -42%
O’Donnell.. 129 / 303 = +135%
11PM
O’Reilly… 326 / 249 = -24%
Ed Show….. 96 / 202 = +110%
Fox News numbers have decreased in every single show, while MSNBC numbers have increased in every single show.
Ouch!!! That’s gonna leave a mark!

Yep and do you notice the sounds of crickets here from the left on this issue!!!!
too many loons on the lake again tonight so see ya!

What does “ohlberman” have to do with anything we were talking about? “Ohlberman” is/was crap like all the other hosts when it came to stating facts. Yes Beck is making tons of money now, did I say he wasn’t? I’m confused about what point you were trying to get across.

I know, how dare people have a different opinion than you.
Redbardope, until you own up to be duped by the made up Fox viewer study you have no credibility. Of course you had none to begin with but now you are in negative territory.
