Your own link even shows that Hannity has 500k more viewers than Maddow.

LOL

What a buffoonish thread.
 
PapaG's 1-day report doesn't prove much or refute the OP.
 
Mick's link covers half a month...

It got even worse for Hannity in the “money demo” of viewers 25-54, who are prized by advertisers. With this group, Hannity held onto less than half his preelection audience. O’Reilly, on the other hand, kept almost 70%.

And through the early part of December, Maddow actually beat Hannity in the coveted group

...so PapaG resorts to an infantile insult and finds one day to the contrary.
 
However, this article is from a reputable source:

http://www.politico.com/blogs/media/2012/12/fox-news-ratings-down-but-not-disastrous-153051.html

But the drop for both Hannity and O'Reilly merely brings them back to the ratings they had prior to the Republican National Convention, with Hannity drawing around two million viewers a night while O'Reilly draws roughly 3 million.

Yes, that's far from ideal: MSNBC, the liberal cable news network, has been far more successful at retaining viewers since the election, especially in the coveted 25-54 demo.

But until Hannity starts averaging under 1.5 million viewers a week, it's not fair to call him "one of the big losers in the 2012 election," as Kaplan does. Ditto for O'Reilly at 2.5 million.

MSNBC's back-to-back prime-time opinion shows, The Rachel Maddow Show and The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell, topped both Fox News and CNN for the coveted 25–54 demographic during the week of Dec. 3. That gives Phil Griffin's network the number one ranking in the demo for four of the first five weeks since the presidential election. Adding to the impressive numbers is the fact that the MSNBC shows outperformed their Fox counterparts despite having guest hosts fill in for Maddow Dec. 5 through Dec. 7.

Yet I gave a link that goes through 12/28, and in it FauxNews beats MSNBC in all categories and demographics.
 
I don't think that 3 days worth of ratings that are quite different from the past 7 years' worth, and those 3 days are from about a month ago no less, indicate a trend.

It's interesting.

I watch Maddow's show, not Hannity's (ever).

Hannity is annoying as all get out. Maddow is hilarious in her wrongheadedness.

You gave a link for JUST 12/8.

One day doesn't make a trend.
 
Goes through = covers only, in PapaSpeak.
 
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.

Pretty sad when "what the fuck is..." beats your news program.

Perspective.
 
I would argue "Buckwild" has more news and less spin than some of the programs on that list.
 
I didn't add anything. That is the list.
 
Isn't FOX's key demo the blue-haired crowd?

I think 18-49 is the money demo. Is FOX leading that one too?
 
at least FNC is now restricting appearances by their only personality more egotistical and annoying than Hannity, dick morris. one of the smartest things they've ever done.
 
I don't know why we really care. If what the public thought was worth watching on TV meant anything meaningful, we'd be in a lot more trouble as a society than we already are.
 
I don't care to defend the list. It is what it is.

It's only one day's worth, so it doesn't mean that on the other days the other programs do better than Fox.
