Mr. Sanchez did quite well Friday night…he was able to build on his lead-in and he beat Olbermann in the total viewer figure (demo was relatively close).
I’m also not surprised how much AC360 dropped from Larry King…Soledad spent the first 20-25 minutes talking about some really boring topic (instead of OJ lol)

Larry King didn’t talk about OJ on Friday. It was Joy Behar for the full hour.

Mad Money and Fast Money are very helpful, but many of us just get e-mail from these programs (or their viewers) summarizing the trades that were suggested.

“On The Money” only 12,000 in the demo!
Is that a typo?
Comment by Ira — September 24, 2007 @ 11:31 pm
LOL I wish Ira! I’ve seen the demo go as low as 9000 once! :O

I was one of the very few who spent 10 minutes or so every morning watching Morning Joe but no more. He was busy replaying Bill O’Reilly’s innocent comments over and over trying to get a reaction from my old favorite Willie, who made a stupid comment about how nobody is allowed to say blacks anymore. Give me a break Willie, you’re getting tainted on that show - go back to Tucker. Why does Mika have a job?
Glenn Beck had on DL Hughley and did okay for a Friday night.

Isn’t 49k a scratch in the demo for MJ?
