A person would have to be deaf and blind not so see how MSNBC is so in the tank for Oboma - Especially that Keith Olbermann clown who purports to be a reporter when he is so obviously a rabid advocateJimMon, 05 May 2008 09:25:20 -0000http://tvbtn.disqus.com/cable_news_ratings_for_friday_may_9/#comment-453419I notice that O'Reilly gets nearly 2 million more views total when adding both O'Reilly's and Olbermann's first viewings and repeat viewings later in the evening. In fact, "O'Reilly get nearly as many views in the 11:00 repeat cast as Olbermann does in the prime time original cast of "Countdown". So why does Olbermann consistently alienate potential crossovers when he infers that anyone who watches O'Reilly must be deranged. Why the constant insults and free promotions? I wonder how many loyalists of MSNBC switch over to see who this O'Reilly is that gets so much of Olbermann's attention?JimMon, 12 May 2008 19:15:42 -0000http://tvbtn.disqus.com/o8217reilly_vs_olbermann_through_thursday_may_15_98/#comment-480597Perhaps one cannot make too much of it, but I find it of some interest that after Wednesday Evening "Special Comment" by Keith where he definitely enjoyed a spoke in the demo audience he was not able to keep that audience on the same level. Further, it appears that the next night O'Reilly saw a considerable increase in total views while Keith's total audience declined considerably. Reason may say that we cannot conclude a cause and effect related to Keith's ranting. I don't mind Keith giving reasoned opinions so much as his "over the top" delivery. He comes across as a lunatic rather than a serious commentator. O'Reilly is also opinionated, but he comes across more reasoned plus he does at least allow differing opinions.JimFri, 16 May 2008 18:12:41 -0000
