But I'll play this time. How exactly does MSNBC choose the president every time?

Repubs often blame "the lamestream media" for "brainwashing people" into voting democrat.

They don't realize that more than 50.1% of the nation is actually liberal-minded, and prefers a govt to spoonfeed them $ and ideas and mindless entertainment. They don't realize that fewer than 50% of americans embody conservative ideals. It's generation selfie, and they won't admit it - they just keep saying the TV is tricking otherwise intelligent traditional, conservative people into voting (D) with their lies.

Then, they say nobody watches lib media anymore. They want it both ways. I think Obama won big twice because 52 or 53% of americans are fckig liberal, period.

That tells me the WWE has nothing to do with Rachel Maddow having a lousy political opinion show and Megyn Kelly beating the crap out of her.

And that you liberal hacks go to great lengths to try and explain why the no. 1 liberal station on TV is horrible, with the ratings to prove it.

Report: More News, Less Opinion for Ratings Stinker MSNBC
Thursday, 19 Mar 2015
By Andrea Billups

Deeper shake-ups are ahead for MSNBC as ratings have dipped for the liberal-leaning television network, putting it in last place behind news competitors like Fox News, CNN and even HLN, Politico reported.

Daytime viewership dipped 21 percent this year alone, while prime time fell off 24 percent overall. Perhaps more telling, daytime viewership is down 41 percent among what television networks view as the golden demographic, the 25- to 54-year-olds, and has fallen off 42 percent for that same group in prime time, Politico said.

The sagging numbers mark MSNBC's lowest since 2005.

MSNBC President Phil Griffin told his staff that the outlook was poor in a memo sent out in December warning of problems.

Sources told Politico that "every program is at risk of being moved or cancelled," even though such well-knowns as "The Rachel Maddow Show" and "Morning Joe" are likely to be fine. But already shows like "Ronan Farrow Daily" and the "Reid Report" have gotten the ax.

"The plan is to re-imagine what the channel is, because the current lineup is a death wish," a top NBCUniversal source privy to the network's shake-up plans told Politico.

New NBC News Group Chairman Andrew Lack is expected to remedy the left-leaning focus of programming and return to more news coverage and less opinion banter, Politico said. The network announced his return earlier this month, The New York Times reported.

Lack's hire shows the deeper issues he must fix, which includes boosting "Today" show ratings and also re-imagining "Meet the Press," the Times said.

"You bring in a seasoned veteran to stabilize the ship, and that is what Andy Lack is," University of Maryland Professor Mark Feldstein told the Times. "They realize that the problem was deeper than just one anchor monster."

Some media critics have theorized that MSNBC's ratings have dipped in correlation to President Barack Obama's popularity, a notion embraced by conservatives, Salon said.

The MSNBC ratings keep getting worse
By DYLAN BYERS
3/31/15

Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse for MSNBC, along came the quarterly ratings reports.

In both daytime and prime time, MSNBC endured its lowest quarterly demo numbers in a decade, and its total viewership since the final quarter of 2007. Prime-time viewership was down 45 percent in the demo from the first quarter of 2014, while daytime viewership was down 39 percent in the demo.

On Tuesday, while Fox News and CNN were boasting their own quarterly numbers -- Fox News remained dominant, CNN made major strides in the demo -- MSNBC chose to focus on the month of March instead, where it boasted gains in prime time and a victory for "Morning Joe" over CNN's "New Day."

But things are still looking grim for MSNBC: Between the hours of 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. on Monday, for instance, more people were watching Al Jazeera America than MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell, Thomas Roberts and "The Cycle."

As we reported in mid-March, MSNBC is now planning a major reorganization of its lineup to stem the ratings losses. In the months ahead, high-level sources at NBCUniversal told us, the network is likely to shake up the bulk of its programming, moving some shows and canceling others.

You can read my full report on MSNBC's ratings woes, on the coming changes, here.

Yet, next year, we'll hear all about how MSNBC and the other liberal media (that nobody watches) are brainwashing tens of millions of conservative american voters into choosing another democrat at the polling booth in 2016.

MSNBC ratings plummet to lowest in 10 years
By Thomas Lifson
May 15, 2015

Wednesday was a terrible day for MSNBC, though in fairness there hasn’t been a good day for a long, long time. The Comcast-controlled cable news outlet had its worst day in ten years. Mediaite (hat tip: Powerline) provides charts for the prime demo (25-54) and total ratings, demonstrating how bad things have gotten for the out and proud leftist outlet:

Watching Morning Joe today, there is no evidence that MSNBC has learned its lesson. A panel discussing the impact of George Stephanopoulos’s undisclosed donations to the Clinton Foundation solemnly agreed that the real problem now was going to be hard tough he would have to be interviewing Democrats, to prove his lack of bias.

Of course Comcast can afford to carry a low performing cable news subsidiary based on its rich profits from as a cable provider, so MSNBC may continue it course.

2015 Cable Network Ranker: FNC No. 2 for the Year
By Brian Flood on Dec. 30, 2015

WebFox News Channel was No. 2 in prime time and No. 3 in total day viewers among all ad-supported cable networks during 2015. FNC averaged 1.79 million viewers between 8-11 p.m. ET, behind only ESPN’s NFL-heavy content. TBS, USA and TNT join FNC and ESPN among the Top 5 prime time networks. Nickelodeon and Adult Swim are the only networks to surpass FNC in total day viewership.

CNN finished No. 22 in prime time and No. 20 in total day, while MSNBC ranked No. 26 in both categories. FNC, CNN and MSNBC all improved their position compared to last year and FNC becomes the first news network to ever finish among the Top 3 in basic cable.

'On The Record' Host Greta Van Susteren leaves Fox News
Mike Snider, USA TODAY
September 6, 2016

Greta Van Susteren, host of Fox News' On the Record since 2002, is leaving the network.

The longtime host of the nightly news show will be replaced, starting today, by senior political analyst Brit Hume, the network said.

"Yes, I have left the Fox News Channel. On Thursday night, I made my decision and informed Fox News of my decision that I was leaving Fox News Channel per my contract," Van Susteren said Tuesday on her Facebook page. "Fox has not felt like home to me for a few years and I took advantage of the clause in my contract which allows me to leave now."

The clause in her contract "had a time limitation, meaning I could not wait," she continued. "I love my staff, I love my colleagues, and I love the crews. That is the hardest part of this decision as they are wonderful people. And most of all? I love the viewers -- even the ones who have gotten mad at me over the years and taken swipes."

Van Susteren added that "I hope to continue my career in broadcasting."

Fox Network co-presidents Jack Abernethy and Bill Shine in a joint statement: “We are grateful for Greta's many contributions over the years and wish her continued success."

Van Susteren's departure comes on the same day that Fox News Channel's parent company Twenty-First Century Fox, agreed to pay $20 million to former Fox anchor Gretchen Carlson to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit she filed against former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes.

Her departure "had nothing to do with the settlement today,” the network said in a statement USA TODAY.

A financial disagreement between the network and Van Susteren was involved in her departure, said a person familiar to the situation.

Van Susteren joined Fox in 2002 after more than a decade as a legal analyst at CNN. She gained notoriety for her on-air analysis of the O.J. Simpson trial. At CNN, she co-hosted Burden of Proof with Roger Cossack and later hosted her own show, The Point.

In July, Van Susteren told The Daily Beast that she had a "long-term deal," but should she ever lose her Fox show she would be interested in re-entering the legal field or teaching at Georgetown University, where she earned master's and doctorate degrees in law.

Hume joined Fox News in 1996 after 23 years at ABC News, where he was the network's chief White House correspondent for the last seven years. He will anchor the show throughout the election season. "I am happy to take on this assignment for the balance of this extraordinary election," he said in a statement.

On Twitter, Hume said that he was "sorry to see Greta go. I count her as a friend ... I hope I won't drive her audience off."

Fox News is No. 1 cable news network for 63rd straight quarter
By Brian Flood, Fox News

Fox News Channel finished the third quarter of 2017 as the most-watched cable news network across the board for the 63rd consecutive quarter, dating back to the first quarter of 2002.

Rupert Murdoch’s news network averaged 1.4 million total viewers and 2.2 million viewers during prime time to win both categories. FNC also won both categories among the key news demo of adults ages 25-54, averaging 298,000 total demo viewers and 436,000 from 8-11 p.m. ET.

FNC also was the top-rated basic cable network in both prime time and total day viewers, for the fifth straight quarter.

Fox News’ overall quarterly victory comes amidst a prime-time lineup change that is expected to help the network’s ratings even more. “Hannity” moved to 9 p.m. ET on Monday, while “The Five” shifted back to its original time of 5 p.m. ET, where it was regularly among the most-watched shows in all of cable. Laura Ingraham and Shannon Bream take over the 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. ET positions late next month, giving the network a strong female duo in prime time and adding an extra hour of live programming in the process.

The quarter was jam-packed with news, including the G20 Summit and related protests; a solar eclipse; O.J. Simpson’s parole hearing; the tragic events that occurred in Charlottesville, Va.; a terror attack in Barcelona; numerous devastating hurricanes and non-stop news on North Korea, Russia, health care and DACA. President Trump also made news on a daily basis and the quarter ended with cable news stations going all-in on the controversy surrounding NFL players kneeling during the national anthem.

“The Rachel Maddow Show” became the first program in MSNBC history to finish as the most-watched show in cable news among both total viewers and the demo for an entire quarter. Maddow averaged 2.7 million total viewers and 606,000 viewers between ages 25-54.

Among total viewers, Maddow picked up a win for the first time ever. Among other cable news programs, Fox News had six of the Top 10 programs among total viewers, while MSNBC has three other programs finish among the 10 most-watched cable news shows. The most-watched show on the liberal CNN was ”Anderson Cooper 360,” which finished at No. 21, behind 13 different FNC programs.

Maddow finished atop the demo for the second consecutive quarter. Her new competitor, “Hannity,” finished second followed by “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and “The Five.” CNN’s most popular show among younger viewers was Cooper, who finished sixth overall.

“Fox & Friends" dominated mornings, averaging 1.5 million viewers and 343,000 in the demo, compared to 1 million and 237,000 for MSNBC’s “Morning Joe." CNN’s “New Day” averaged only 643,000 viewers and 228,000 between ages 25-54.

FNC’s sister station, Fox Business Network, ended the third quarter as the No. 1 rated business network, marking the first time ever the network has outpaced rival CNBC in business day viewers for four consecutive quarters. FBN grew 26 percent from last year among business day viewers, while CNBC saw a 14 percent decline over the same time period.
