Well, looks as if Drudge is punishing Jon Stewart!
Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 09:34 AM by romantico
On Drudge's headline, he brags about Jon Stewarts ratings are sinking. Could this have anything to do With Jon on Crossfire? Hmmmmmmm, I wonder!

2. He's Just Jealous
Dridge's TV pukefest never had any ratings at all, so they couldn't drop. Nielson doesn't post negative numbers....

7. Stewart hasn't aired a new show since Crossfire
The ratings don't have anything to do with his appearance on Crossfire. I believe his next new show airs today.

8. Riiiiight. And Clinton's autobiography was "selling slowly".
Man. Sludge's desperation is a sight to see.

11. Drudge implies
that what Jon did in October affected his September viewership. Whatta moron. And about that September viewership:
Thursday night’s presidential debate spurred Comedy Central’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart to its best ratings ever, the network said Friday.

Comedy’s "Indecision 2004" special, The Bush-Kerry Debate: The Squabble in Coral Gables, drew 2.4 million viewers, blowing away The Daily Show’s previous best of 1.9 million for an episode featuring Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) Jan. 21.

The network added that Thursday night’s post-debate fare also pushed The Daily Show to its best week in history, as the series posted an average of 1.5 million viewers.

The Daily Show won its time slot compared with all of cable among young adults (18-34), and it finished second behind Fox News Channel among total viewers (two-plus) and adults 18-49, Comedy said.

12. He's Not A Moron
Based upon what you just posted, HE'S A LIAR! It's not stupidity. The facts were just as easy for Drudge to get as they were for you. He knows the facts and just lied about it. That's MUCH worse.

13. Maybe if Jon started wearing one of those cool reporter hats, his ratings
will go back up?
