It's not "one lousy week." And I say that as someone who can't sit through a whole hour of Nancy Grace, but can easily stomach Countdown for the whole hour.

Sophia claims that if sales of Olbermann's book are soaring on Amazon, that only goes to show how unbelievable it is that "so many people are so stupid." Hmmm...how do you know that it's not the other way around? How do you know that Grace's show didn't beat Olbermann's in the ratings because so many people are so stupid, and Olbermann's book isn't selling well on Amazon because it is more interesting than anything Grace could write? Oh, excuse me. I asked an intelligent question about your contradictions in logic. Anyway, if Olbermann's Amazon sales continue to be as good as they are, looks like you guys already have your "explanation" at the ready. "Quick, switch from 'Popularity equals truth' to 'Lots of people are stupid!' Yeah, that's the ticket!" Of course, back when Bill O'Reilly's books were selling, that wasn't the explanation, was it? Then, it was "Popularity equals truth." Yeah. Sure...

Maybe it's time for MSNBC to bring back Rita Cosby. (Just kidding, of course.) That being said, I must admit that Tucker's show has vastly improved. With the summer, and so many of the regular hosts on vacation, it's hard to be sure that this trend will continue. Uh, Oh…look’s like Dan Abram’s job may be in jeopardy if the numbers don’t improve.

I believe you're referring to Keith Olbermann's #1 PR flunky: Brian Stelter of TVNewser. Um, where is Spud saying that?

Shep Smith might also need to worry along with KO. Today Spud is touting KO's book as "soaring" on Amazon. Cannot believe so manypeople are so stupid. His show should be interesting tonight with the news today on Joe Wilson. (Sorry, didn't mean to change the subject) I have been keeping an eye on Glen’s show and it is progressively getting better.Now I rarely miss it. Shep Smith might also need to worry along with KO.

It's fun to watch the ratings continue to fall for that horrendous operation in Secaucus. Headline News is inching closer and closer to ousting MSNBC.

Getting beat by a canned show which is much more interesting to watch than his own. Maybe its about time Beck starts getting some "respect" for his accolades! Oh, what a BLOW for KO!
