  1. On the Record w/ Greta Van Susteren- 877,000 viewers (179,000)

    That has to be the lowest numbers I recall. Yes, I know it was on at 11pm. Oh did I mention AC360 thwacked H&C and Greta in the all important, much touted key demo?

  2. BO and KO had a good night last night. CNN needs to do something quick, it looks like a two man’s race no Sanchez or Grace in sight.

  3. I gotta say, all things considered last night, CNN and MSNBC were too close…that’s not good for CNN at all IMO.

  4. MSNBC beat CNN in the Primetime demo. CNN could extend the Situation Room to the 8ET slot until Campbell Brown’s show starts or put another hour of Lou Dobbs on. I mean just anything to not destroy that slot (a la anything but Rick Sanchez). How did Tucker not scratch?

  5. Billo is still riding his 9/11 bump I see, no wonder he said he wants another 9/11 it will give him a huge rating boost :S

  6. CNN seems to be headed straight for third place…

  7. MSNBC needs to do something with Tucker. I liked the guy but his show is always draging the ratings down for MSNBC. I guess they can have him on in the morning, and have Joe in his spot.

  8. Tucker is the perfect choice for the morning show.
    He and Willie are perfect. The two of them on a split screen during the “In Other Words” segment in the afternoon is fantastic! (It comes right at the end of the show.)
    Joe is the perfect choice for nothing. His numbers continue to dip.
    He tried to insult Tony Snow Friday and got slapped down by the smooth as silk Tony.

  9. Wow, those Fox numbers for the Pres. & Dem. response. Edwards should have bought time on Fox, he would reached way more people.

    #5, Bill O’Reilly wants another 9/11? I thought it was some writer in Philly (according to the Colbert Report).

    Comment by Obama in 08! — September 15, 2007 @ 11:11 am

  10. Thats where it started Bama, but then John Gibson and BOR basically said that writer was correct in his comments.

    Comment by BOB — September 15, 2007 @ 6:06 pm

  11. BOB, prove it. Link me up, baby.

    Comment by ImNotBlue — September 15, 2007 @ 6:12 pm

  12. BOB, what on earth are you talking about re: O’Reilly/ 9/11? As Obama and IMB have asked, link us up!

    Cella, I agree - Tucker/Willie is the right team for the morning; Scarborough should probably get a job parking cars somewhere. And what did he say to trash Tony Snow?

    Comment by Missy — September 15, 2007 @ 7:52 pm

  13. I think BOB has a crush on the Newshounds.

    It sounds like their talking points.
