O'Reilly Ratings Beat NBC News For 4th Time This Year...

[paulitician]

This should get all the hysterical Fox News-Haters in a tizzy. More & more people think GE/NBC blows...


It's relatively rare for cable news to beat broadcast, in part because NBC still reaches more homes than Fox. According to TV by the Numbers, O'Reilly pulled 3.478 million viewers last Wednesday compared to 3.341 million for the NBC show.

An unspoken, yet significant question about the above is this:

Does the huge viewer-ship represent a political poll of sorts?

Does it mean that the viewers basically agree with the 'fair and balanced' right of center outlook of Fox?


I believe it does....and bodes ill for Obama in November.

“NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams” wins the week and the first quarter of 2012 and holds a 1.1 million Total Viewer season-to-date lead on #2 “ABC World News with Diane Sawyer.” For the quarter, “World News” decreased its year-to-year A25-54 demo gap with “NBC Nightly News” by -15%. It’s the closest the two shows have been in younger viewers in 4 years – since Q1 2008.

The “CBS Evening News” which saw its lowest Q1 on record in 2011, was the only broadcast to improve its numbers year-over-year, +3% in Total Viewers. Q1 2011 saw extensive coverage of the Arab spring and Japan earthquake and tsunami.

Note: “CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley” is excluded from the averages on Thursday and Friday due to NCAA basketball games. “World News” and “Nightly News” averages were based on 5 days.

I'm not surprised his show kicks ass.

I think its crazy Ed on MSNBC at 8PM. Who the hell would watch his wacky ass??

How do you figure that?

 

[NYcarbineer]

THIS SHOULD COME AS A SURPRISE TO NO ONE, EXCEPT THE RIGHTWING NUTS AROUND HERE:

O'Reilly wasn't even up against Williams last Wednesday. O'Reilly's numbers are from 8 pm,

Rock Center is on at 10. Greta lost to Williams by about a million viewers at 10.

But if you want to talk O'Reilly vs. the networks in Primetime?

These are the shows that beat O'Reilly last Wednesday:

1. American Idol
2. Survivor
3. One Tree Hill
4. The Middle
5. Suburgatory
6. Modern Family
7. Criminal Minds
8. Happy Endings
9. CSI
10. Missing

Oh, and 6 of them were repeats lolol

Here is more information on ratings. Interesting that Bill TIED with Jon Stewart amongst Democrats....

SNIP: From Bill O`Reilly

"But heres some very interesting news... in the media, Fox News now dominating as far as trust is concerned. Suffolk University poll taken among more than a thousand likely voters asked this question. What TV news or commentary source do you trust the most? FNC won big, 28 percent; CNN second, 17; NBC News way down there at third at 10 percent. That's a route and signifies a tremendous power shift in the American media.

"No longer does the left have a stranglehold on news and information. Also the poll is bad news for the President not because Fox News is unfair to him but because we do not have a vested interest in Mr. Obama's re-election as do most other news operations.

"Also, Fox News does not have a vested interest in Mitt Romney's election. We'll cover both candidates fairly.

"Ready for another shock?

"The Suffolk poll asked what political reporter or analyst do you trust the most? Well, your humble correspondent won by a whopping 25 percent over the second-most trusted person, Diane Sawyer of ABC News. Brian Williams and Anderson Cooper were tied for third in that survey.

"And here is my favorite part of it. I tied Jon Stewart among Democrats. Take that, you brigand.

"Now, as you may know this is a no gloating zone and I have been doing political commentary for more than 15 years here but when my old pals in Levittown see this poll, if they ever do, they will have a collective heart attack. The bold, fresh guy now the most trusted commentator in the land... simply stunning.
And that's "The Memo."

You go Bill. By trying in earnest to be correct in The Factors' reporting, you have earned your ratings and the respect of your viewers, whether Republican or Democrat, Independent or Libertarian. You are trusted by all but the most cynical and pessimistic.
