Could not agree with you more !!!! Shep is the best !!!!!
FOX News Haters must be in a tissy :P
If so, that leaves us with 2 choices.
1) People are so stupid, they want to watch poor quality coverage.
2) People are too stupid to tell what "is" good quality coverage.
I tend to think people can recognize good coverage and will select it. That would explain MSNBC's drop off, since they weren't covering a lot of this.
Springer has big ratings too. What does that say about our culture?
What an incredibly "insightful" and totally baseless statement. Clearly, presentation affects viewership, but to blindly equate Fox to Springer is out there even for the most hard core lib. These attempts to marginalize FNC based on someone's liberal idology are being shown to be garbage on a daily basis. Even the WH has seen the folly of their ways.
Trying to make the "Springer" comparison merely exposes the falacy of those attempts. I guess we'll mark you down for chosing "People are too stupid to know what good coverage is".
What has changed. My guess is that CNN has lost the respect and trust of many viewers.
That first night of Iraq War coverage on CNN is still one of the greatest moments in the "New" news era.
Fox haters are grinding their teeth down to tiny nubs by now! Evening cable ratings consistently have them surpassing all other primetime cable news "outlets" which peddle PC drivel by more than the rest combined, not counting Glenn Beck who outdraws everybody but Oprah and would surpass her if he were on a primetime slot.
SNL put-downs of Barney eFF and Mad Queen Nancy are even better than their Dear Leader slams. Sadly, the Fox send-up wasn't even close enough to the real thing to be recognizable. And The Daily Show and Colbert are trying to outdo themselves in Glenn Beck parodies.
Of course, Stewart might be whistling past the graveyard a bit, although Colbert is still trying [sometimes] to be even-handed in his slams...
No use making fun of MS...oops, DNCTV. It's not watched enough to even rate with the unwatched PBS Bill Moyers' weekly agitprop three-minute hates.

Is kookie Keith gonna cry again and take another month off cuz his boys got their asses kicked tuesday?
The evening numbers may or may not be up a little bit, the tag "broke" when I tried to click back, but considering that a workplace shooting in Texas doesn't really affect a lot of people, I have to wonder if the "breaking news" really just resulted in just the same, habitual viewers.
