Hannity ratings plummet.

[jlprk]

Is there a site with a graph, graphing each date since the election on the X axis, and ratings on the Y axis. And with the Maddow line blue and Hannity in red. I don't ask for much.

Even that ideal graph would not include the fact that some Basic Cable packages include Fox, but not MSNBC. In some places, only those with spare money to pay extra can watch MSNBC.

Looks like your guys are on top. Congrats. Are you pissed that they signed Dennis Kucinich to a multi-year deal.

Why is Amish Mafia included in a list of cable news shows?

 

[Denny Crane]

I don't make the list. I suspect the Amish Mafia is listed so you get an idea of how the CABLE news programs compare with other cable programming.

These aren't my guys, FWIW. I watch way more MSNBC and CNN than I do Fox. I'm not averse to watching any of the channels...

Kucinich? I always liked him and thought he's a man of principle.

Presumably just for reference, to show exactly how relevant the news programs are to the lives of the average American citizen.

the same reason colbert is?

 

[jlprk]

The Amish Mafia deserve a nightly political show, if they're on my side.

 

[BrianFromWA]

back to the OP's point...did they just outright lie? Mix up "overall" with "one particular demographic"? And if so, why are you reading/quoting them?

 

[jlprk]

No, the OP quote was correct. Fox led MSNBC long before the elections. In the months leading up to election day, all news networks gained ratings. After the elections, Fox lost most of its gains as expected, but the surprise is that MSNBC held onto its gains. Now, Fox leads, but by a lot less. And even that smaller lead was no lead back in the early December quote.

Why is Al Sharpton included in a list of cable news shows?
