Ratings of MSNBC shows?
Anyone know for November or December how that ratings compare between "Hardball," "Countdown," "Scarborough Country," and "Deborah Norville Tonight?"

2. Hardball has the most. Count & Scar tied with .4
tvnewswer.com usually has ratings.

I think Norville was .3, but not sure.

4. Ratings mean little on MSNBC...
All of MSNBC's shows ratings are in the gutter. Donahue was cancelled even though is show had the best ratings on MSNBC. Execs were worried that his show wasn't pro-corporate and pro-war enough for the network.

If you look at a lot of the companies who buy advertising on MSNBC, you'll see GE (which owns MSNBC), a handful of energy companies (like Kerr-McGee and Conoco-Phillips). These companies aren't selling products directly to consumers, so why do they advertise on MSNBC? The answer is they are buying public relations.

These companies are simply subsidizing the shows on MSNBC which promote a point of view (propaganda) that benefit them.
