Oct. #'s: MSNBC Posts Big Gains With Hardball, Countdown, Scarborough
Fox News and CNN were mostly down in October primetime, compared to the same month a year ago. But MSNBC was mostly up, with Hardball enjoying a 27 percent gain in the demo and Scarborough Country recording a 13 percent increase. Countdown with Keith Olbermann beat CNN's Paula Zahn in the demo again, and came within 2,000 viewers of beating her in total viewers. Olbermann was up 61 percent in the demo versus last year. Here are the hourly numbers:

Keith is also up 67% in total viewers.

Here's the breakdown first 18-54 then Total
Shep Smith -6% -18%
O' Reilly -9% -22% (In 11PM rerun he's up 20% Key -7% Total but here we're only talking 385,000 from 321,000 viewers
H&C -2% -18%
Greta -12% -29%

No Katrina excuse - in fact with this being the mid-terms & Iraq going badly you'd expect viewership would be going up. Hah!

1. The truth will set us free! Where is Olbermann getting his information

...and why has BushCo/fascist press and neocon power elite not shut him down yet? Have they lost their power?

2. accolades to Mr. Olbermann

seems speaking truth to power is a good thing. :-)

3. There's such a hunger for the truth. Hear that, ABC???

KO is the ONE weapon we did not have in '00, '02, or '04.

Everybody, tell your friends to watch Countdown! Email them the crooks&liar clips so they'll get hooked.

4. KO is "appointment television" -- it's OUR national hearth

where truthseekers gather every night to hear what REALLY happened during the day ... not the Bushites' neoreality.

7. I'm doing my part....

I've got people at work watching here in one of the reddest states in the union (N.C.). We all IM each other during Keith's show. I started emailing clips of Keith's special commentaries to my entire address book. And with the exception of a couple of folks, the response was totally positive.

I think the only reason Fox stays at #1 is because of liberals watching so they can dissect all the lies? I understand that Fox is totally entertaining, but that's all it is...ENTERTAINMENT. I haven't watched Fox since Bill Clinton left office.

5. I still don't trust...

Hardball and Scarborough. They're still Bush ass-kissers.

6. I'm looking forward to...

...widdle Tucker Carlson getting the ax. Rita Cosby is supposed to be going as well...
