It must be liberal lies from the Daily Kos.....oh wait, its 'only' "in the coveted 25-54 demo".....never mind:To be fair, if you're Bill O'Reilly, you've got to make shit up. He can't help it. And how else is he supposed to show McCain in the lead? His problem is that Olbermann's reality-based show is catching up fast: Ratings among the advertiser-coveted 25-54 demo, in thousands: Monday, October 27: 8 p.m. 9 p.m. Olbermann: 1,081 (MSNBC) Maddow: 964 (MSNBC) O'Reilly: 938 (Fox) Hannity & Colmes: 899 (Fox) Brown: 560 (CNN) King: 517 (CNN) Grace: 609 (HLN) Dobbs: 167 (HLN) Friday, October 24: 8 p.m. 9 p.m. Olbermann: 912 (MSNBC) Maddow: 828 (MSNBC) O'Reilly: 829 (Fox) Hannity & Colmes: 729 (Fox) Brown: 447 (CNN) King: 605 (CNN) Grace: 439 (HLN) Dobbs: 144 (HLN) Thursday, October 23: 8 p.m. 9 p.m. O'Reilly: 888 (Fox) Hannity & Colmes: 900 (Fox) Olbermann: 830 (MSNBC) Maddow: 721 (MSNBC) Brown: 432 (CNN) King: 660 (CNN) Grace: 363 (HLN) Dobbs: 135 (HLN) Wednesday, October 22: 8 p.m. 9 p.m. O'Reilly: 1,051 (Fox) Hannity & Colmes: 899 (Fox) Olbermann: 881 (MSNBC) Maddow: 864 (MSNBC) Brown: 529 (CNN) King: 643 (CNN) Grace: 399 (HLN) Dobbs: 189 (HLN) Tuesday, October 21: 8 p.m. 9 p.m. Olbermann: 935 (MSNBC) Maddow: 867 (MSNBC) O'Reilly: 742 (Fox) Hannity & Colmes: 698 (Fox) Brown: 583 (CNN) King: 705 (CNN) Grace: 520 (HLN) Dobbs: 152 (HLN) Olbermann and Maddow have both beaten their Fox News counterparts three of the five shows this past week -- a remarkable achievement given how dominant Fox's lead once was. And don't forget that O'Reilly once had a commanding lead as the most-watched cable news host. So when Olbermann beats him, it means Olbermann is the most watched. And yeah, Lou Dobbs is a douche who no one watches. O'Reilly isn't the only reality-deficient blowhard losing traction to the Olbermann.dailykos.com
