What happened to CNN?
What happened to MSNBC? teee heeee
This is one of those nights when we hear about how Stewert and Colbert beat OReilly!!
I could be wrong but I am guessing the spike in CNN ratings the past couple weeks was due to the California shooter and Crap Boat stories
@Ratboy
I’ll play your game.
#1 – NBC Nightly News w/Brian Williams = 8,995,000
#2 – ABC World News w/Diane Sawyer = 8,334,000
#3 – CBS Evening News w/Scott Pelley = 7,200,000
…and then reality sets in.
• A25-54:
2,377,000
2,216,000
2,095,000
I was wondering what ‘Evening Express’ on HLN might be, why it’s doing well and beating ‘Situation Room’. Just checked, they’re covering the Jodi Arias trial. Is that the only programming on HLN these days?
Ratboy, It’s your game now! Mark2 is learning from Obama. You create something. For Obama it is the sequester. For Mark2 it is his ratings game. Then you act like it was some one else crazy idea.

I’m carrying this over from Tuesday’s posts.
President Obama’s administration says we are not in a recession or depression. You keep arguing that we need to spend when the country is in a recession or depression. Are you disagreeing with the President’s view of the economy or are you just making a general statement? Please clarify your position.
If you have time go to CBS, NBC and ABC news sites and found the stories about the sequester look at the comments. I was shocked that the overwhelming number of posts where supporting the GOP, and calling Obama a lair.
Overwhelming comments posted on websites….???
President Obama Approval rating 55%
GOP Approval rating in congress 35%
MSNBC tanks again!
CNN…I can’t stand Erin B. in the p.m., why would I watch her in the a.m.? I thought for sure she’d be walking out of the same door as Soledad O. It looks like CNN and MSNBC are bouncing around in ratings. I don’t care, just as long as I can see Rachel, Ed, and sometimes Chris M. It’s a huge yawn, every couple of months to hear the same old drivel from our 15% wonders in Congress. How about you just do your jobs and quit with all of your vaca’s..that we pay for? How long would any of us last in our jobs with that rating? It goes like this, “pack up your desk, your fired, and you will be escorted to your car.” It looks like another Nor’Easter. Surprise! My Christmas tree is still up and I plan to have cocoa and watch the storm. BBL
Rachel’s granny panties are on Fire!
@Is that the only programming on HLN these days?
Morning Express with Robin Meade
Raising America
HLN News Now
Making it in America
Evening Express
Nancy Grace
Dr. Drew Pinsky
What Would You Do?
Showbiz Tonight
DERP!!

Erin is one good looking dame! Just a mans perspective.
THUD !
That’s Rachle fallen to earth from Cloud 9.
Perhaps Rachle should drum up a docudrama every night for better ratings.
Rachle will go to her grave Utterly Frustrated because
President Bush walks freely, Dick Cheney,freely, and all the Congressmen
who Voted for the war or it wouldn’t of happened and because they knew
what we don’t., also Colon Power, a 5-star general who held up pictures
in front of the U.N. and all that.
Pres. Bush is an expectorant GranDaddy and a good one he will be.
Chelsea has bargained with Bill and Hillary to not be pregnant before
Hillary runs for pres.so as not to labled a “grandmother”.
@SP aren’t you done with that white stuff!! Move south!
Nancy, The senate hasn’t done much, I think we should fire them all.
BTW: The congress isn’t on vacation. During this break they are suppose to be meeting with their constituents. You know getting in touch with the people. I see my rep from time to time. But I have never seen my senators.
