Fox News Ratings Fall Off A Cliff In 2011

Yep...your right. Except Fox is doing fine. I'm done...we put this to bed with the other Fox news thread started by Blacken...not sure why he felt compelled to start another one.

Liberal douchbag...ahhahaahaha.. .He got this crap from a site called  http://www.newscorpse.com/ncWP/?p=6080.......hahahahaahahaah. Noooo they don't have an ax to grind. When that piece of shit you voted for gets his pink slip...please fucking leave the country.

Funny website.

lets read it together    Yet Fox was alone among the cable news networks in losing viewers — down 8 percent in prime time and 5 percent for the full day, Nielsen said.

So what?  News ratings are always going up or steady?  This is news?  Has FOX news ratings ever, ever, ever dipped before?

Is it a sign Blacken that people are moving towards the liberal side, finally seeing the light and realizing FOX news is slanted conservative and they now know the truth, the diabolical plan by neo-cons to brainwash the populace to eventually support the systematic taking over of the planet through a totalitarian regime fuel by fear and nationalism?  Heil!

Nielsen is clearly a lying liberal stats organization conceived by ACORN with obama's approval.

n another example of the declining fortunes of the right-wing extremism propagated by conservative media and displayed so prominently by the GOP family of clowns competing for the Republican nomination for president, Nielsen has reported that the ratings for Fox News have taken a steep dive in 2011.
 

Of the three main cable news networks, Fox News is the only one that went down compared to their ratings in 2010. And a double-digit decline at that. FoxPods will, as usual, point out that Fox is still the top cable news network, but that is beside the point. Its audience is peeling away at a rapid rate and over time they will be unable to sustain their leading position. It is also important to put those numbers in context. While Fox is the #1 cable news network, they lag far behind the broadcast nets. In fact, the highest rated program on Fox (O'Reilly Factor) has about half the viewers of the lowest rated broadcast news program (CBS Evening news).

All three cable networks were impacted by extraordinary events that affected their ratings performance. CNN was helped by breaking news stories like the death of Osama Bin Laden and the Japanese earthquake/tsunami/nuclear crisis. Because CNN has the best developed network of international bureaus, viewers frequently turn to CNN for major breaking news events.

MSNBC was hurt by the loss of Keith Olbermann and numerous schedule shakeups, but still managed to land in positive territory. Fox, of course, lost a notorious personality in Glenn Beck, but that likely kept Fox from declining even more than they did. Beck's ratings were in free fall and dropped 37% between January and his sign-off in June. His replacement, "The Five," has held pretty steady since its debut.

The fall of Fox News is striking evidence of the shift in the nation's attitudes toward the ultra-conservative philosophy advanced by Fox and their brazenly biased facilitators. For Fox to be alone in decline in a year that includes a Republican-only primary campaign is a devastating indictment of the network and the propaganda tactics they employ.

excellent post

i don't see defending shitty ratings by pointing at other companies that suck.

I mean, "Honey, I know I shot my load in 20 seconds... but 2 of my best friends shoot their loads in only 10 seconds" isn't exactly going to keep the chicken from telling the whole neighborhood that you can't hold your rocks.

this continual defense of your own shitty performance with "hey, the other guy sucks worse" is pathetic.

I guess your MBA program didnt teach you anything about industry averages?

if the entire industries performance went down and youre in that industry, what do you expect your numbers to do?

I guess this type of ignorance is what happens when you go to cracker jack U
