From Raw Story: The ratings for CNN and MSNBC in the month of August have risen since last summer, while Fox News Channel’s prime time ratings plummeted. According to the Nielsen ratings, as compiled by TV Newser, Fox News Channel’s total viewership dropped 7 percent from last August, and it’s prime time audience is down […]
I have been waiting for this to happen. Olbermann has some more fun at O’Reilly’s expense. He is now taunting him over the news that O’Reilly’s ratings have plummeted and Olbermann’s has skyrocketed. You got to love this sort of news: OLBERMANN: Bill, boy. Bill-O! Hey! Over here. Back in reality-based reality. The latest ratings […]

Last night MSNBC reported that the sudden shuffle with Rove is an indicator that he may be getting indicted (via Think Progress). KEITH OLBERMANN: First off, the base line here. Has the status of the Fitzgerald grand jury changed? Has the status of Mr. Rove in the investigation process itself changed? DAVID SHUSTER: Well, first […]
