  1. joselito says:

    Teen Nick? Degrassi?

  2. Demonjoe says:

    Situation room got a little more viewers than it normally gets, probably because of the Fort Hood shooting.

  3. JC says:

    Fox and Friends was unusually high. Wonder why

  4. Rob says:

    With the Series over the numbers for FOX are going to go up. Already that prognostication has come true, Friday’s numbers are way higher than of late. We will see some bump on this weeks numbers as well.

  5. Rob says:

    JC, FOX and Friends is probably higher because of the Ft. Hood Shootings. If you look at American Morning, they were a lot higher as well.

  6. Gary says:

    FOX NEWS rules again, the other networks can’t even see the tail lights of FOX.

  7. wd says:

    You ever notice how CNN only talks about GOP and Palin ?…negative stories only of course.

    Maybe thats why their numbers are down….naaa…couldn’t be that.

  8. Gary says:

    Palin is a babe.

  9. Hobo says:

    Here are the numbers found from the Pew survey.
    FNC: 39% Republican, 33% Democratic, 22% Independent
    CNN: 18% Republican, 51% Democratic, 23% Independent
    MSNBC: 18% Republican, 45% Democratic, 27% Independent

    This would indicate more democrats are watching fox than MSNBCs total audience. Cant get anymore fair and balanced than that.

    Lets see the libs here spin that…HOBO

  10. Demonjoe says:

    Hobo, didn’t you post that on another page already?

  11. Julian says:

    CNN’s numbers were back to normal range friday. Lately they were at ridiculousy low standards. Good to see they were up again.

  12. wd says:

    @ Bill G.

    Do the cable news nets post end of year totals for the entire year?

  13. markd says:

    only fox has the guts to call fort hood what it is,,,, we got hit again

  14. guy says:

    Keith Dolbermann is not stupid. Has anyone noticed that 80% of his show is talking about Republicans. He knows where the action is. If he stops talking about Republicans then his viewers will drop further that they already are.

  15. Lee707 says:

    Fox news report only hate.

  16. Guy — you are so right about Olbermann who only spews nonsense.
    Lee707 — I can only categorize your post as totally rediculous!

  17. Cody says:

    Lee707 the fact that you said that shows that you yourself are full of hate for FOX News.

  18. wolfster38 says:

    CNN better watch out the Cartoon network could have a thanksgiving cartoon marathon at the end of the month witch could make CNN’s ratings tank.

  19. wolfster38 says:

    Can anyone make a Wolf Blitzer Vs. Tom and Jerry graph?

  20. Jfan says:

    Tom and Jerry – 1,216,000 viewers (1,036,000) (180,000)

    Situation Room — 718,000 viewers (217,000) (345,000)

  21. Rosie says:

    I watch Fox news. They do not “report only hate”
    If you think that, than you are listening to some hate and that isn’t Fox news haha

    Lee707
    give me please some examples of hate that Fox broadcasts/reports.
