Hatemonger Beck is pulling down huge numbers on FIXED News

[DainBramaged]

Total viewers for his 5PM show this past Friday were estimated to be over 3,000,000 households. That's scary that his went from a couple of hundred thousand at CNN to millions at the network that hates America. And that is more than the ENTIRE M$NoBodyCares line up from 5PM through 11PM reruns.


Ignorant America hates, so sad. But on a bright note, SpongeBob pulls over 6,000,000 households a day, so there is hope for America.

1. We don't have a way to estimate how many of those 3 million are tuning

in to watch a lunatic train wreck.

2. Says a lot for the fringe, doesn't it.

3. Yer keerect!

I had insomnia (go figure) and tuned in to the replay in the middle of the morning. I was paralyzed with disbelief once the tears started flowing. I truly wonder if they're not broadcasting a human being in the process of a nervous breakdown. Seriously.

4. Indeed. People do love their train wrecks.

5. Fox News is on more stations.

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of those people are just curiosity seekers ("What crazy thing is he going to do tonight?"). Like Obama's approval numbers, Beck's ratings will sink back down to earth.

Also, Besides, they need a new Bill O'Reilly--Murdoch and Ailes knows he's shot his wad.

6. SpongeBob pulls over 6,000,000 households a day

does that mean Beck is dumber than a cartoon sponge?

7. Its the full blown craziness people are tuning into..

Waiting for him to go over the top and call for all out war on the United States, and there are those who want to be there when he says it..

Fox news coming apart at the seams

They have found their niche, hate TV.. just like Jerry Springer, there is an audience for that stuff.. basically the same audience..

8. Now It's 3 Million? The Other Day It Was 900,000

That may be a composite number of all of the viewings that waste of electrons had. All those Jack Bauers out there couldn't just watch it once. The other day TV Newser had 900,000 as the estimated audience...large for a cable channel, but not the "3 million" that is now being "estimated". It's like rushbo's numbers...hidden in such a way that when a claim is made it's all but impossible to prove or disprove it.

The other day someone posted here about how high Faux's ratings were as if this was some indictment of how powerful either they were or the rushpublicans were. Remember, this is a network driven by ideology and partisanship 24/7...even the informercials. It's eye candy for the 20% or so who still support the extremist agenda of the GOOP...a very loyal group indeed. They've been brainwashed for years not to trust any other media outlet and thus Faux has become their morphine...a total and mindnumbing addiction.

Also, many of these viewers were 35+...more like 50+. The younger demos have real lives...work, social activities and other interests. While the hate mongers climb to Faux like a drug, the rest of us are all over the place. While MSNBC does offer a couple shows that cater to our perspective, it's a small drop in the bucket compared to the non-stop mind games that happen at Faux and with its viewers. Of course their numbers will be higher...people with real lives are watching a lot of other things.

I am alarmed at the vitriol of Beck and his ilk these days. Their grandstanding and slandering of the President and our country in general is encouraging these hate spewers to turn up the rhetoric that incites their audience. It's just a matter of time for some Dreckhead to do something stupid. While I wish for this network to bankrupt itself, or for Murdoch to slip on a banana peel and his family end up breaking up the company...but we have to realize that Faux speaks loud, but it speaks for a small part of the public and the electorate.
