  1. O’Rielly beat Olbermann by 2,000,030 viewers? Can we get a quote from A-Mess-NBC’s Dan Abrams hailing Olbermann’s “impressive” ratings? Maybe article no. 1,000,001 from some fool in the U.S. press corps claiming that Olbermann has an actual “audience”?

  2. Not to mention Nancy Grace beating him. No surprise O’Reilly was on the worst person in the world list tonight.

  3. Last Thursday(with Colbert), O’Reilly’s demo beat Countdown’s total. He almost did it again. Is this a Thursday thing? Did people expect Colbert to be on again? O’Reilly really is back on his game.

  4. What an absolute disaster for CNN in the 8PM hour! I bet FOX are glad they’re not stuck with Paula!

  5. I wonder if this has anything to do with this ‘06 elections. Many people thought that FNC would lose viewers if the party in power disagreed with their opinion host’s point of view. But that’s shaping up not to be the case.

    I wonder if now that there’s more of an adversarial relationship (than a defensive) between the two, if more people will tune in to see what the fight is about.

  6. Could this have anything to do with several TimeWarner outlet’s dropping MSNBC?

  7. Are some of TimeWarner outlet’s really dropping MSNBC?? Interesting.

  8. I’m sure we’ll hear from Abrams that Olbermann beat O’Reilly (in O’Reilly’s 3rd airing… for 2.6 seconds… in 1/16 of the key demographic… in rural Malaysia).
