Liberals can take heart in that though Err America has gone under, CBS, CNN, ABC, NBC, etc are still there.

Keith Olberman now beats O'Reilly in 24-54 age group. That's the key most vital demographic. And since O'Reiully is obviously not attractive to young people, this means 75% of O'Reilly's audience is 55 and older. Something to consider. Who is the top TV talker of the future? Not O'Reilly. And Fox may be looking at a bleak future as well. Meanwhile low budget indie shows like they have on Air America are doing great. Al Franken has never been more popular and could get himself a primetalk network show soon. But he may also run for senator in 2008, and he will beat Norm Coleman if he runs.
