Perhaps every MSNBC viewer was in the audience for Tuesday's inauguration.

That's probably the most favorable explanation for the cable network's dismal showing in the inauguration ratings, where it came in last among all networks and trailed rivals CNN and Fox News in every daypart.

For the critical hours of 11AM to 2PM, MSNBC averaged just 2.6 million total viewers, 69 percent lower than Fox News (4.4 million) and 165 percent lower than CNN (6.9 million), according to Nielsen Media Research.

For the total day (6AM-3AM), MSNBC averaged 1.7 million total viewers, compared to CNN's 4.0 million and Fox News' 2.5 million. Things weren't any better in the Adults 25-54 demographic, either, where MSNBC usually performs well. CNN won the demo with an average 1.6 million to Fox News' 750,000 and MSNBC's 610,000.

Btw.. advertisers on this side of the pond do not want their products associated with Beck.

As you said, they are moving their money.

Artful Dodger: And the point is.. you are saying. That a company does not have the right of freedom? That they cannot say when their products are advertised if they find a particular show distasteful?

The law is on their side, the right to choose.

(V):  You still don't get it.  The way a boycott works is one group complains and the advertisers respond to the complaints.  They are no responding to the show, but to the complainers.  Two can play that game.  Thousands more are boycotting the boycotters.  

The law is on our side:  Our right to boycott.

(V):  I'm not worried.  In one year the Dems will be out of power as they will be a Repub majority.  Obama will have 2 years left of his  lame duck presidency.  He'll never get reelected.  He will lose big time because his ideas are too radical. 

We need fresh blood in congress.  the old guard are out of touch.

(V):  You have to look at the long term benefits vrs drawbacks.  Keep what's working, fix only the broken elements of health care.

Nothing the government ever does with regard to social programs works.  They all go bankrupt.  They are a bunch of incompetents.  It will end up costing the US taxpayer far more than most are currently paying.  and it's a fact that anyone can get health care treatment in America regardless of the ability to pay.

The government is a far worse option.

Nothing the government ever does with regard to social programs works. 
They all go bankrupt.  They are a bunch of incompetents.  It will end
up costing the US taxpayer far more than most are currently paying. 
and it's a fact that anyone can get health care treatment in America
regardless of the ability to pay.


Your false claim:  No. your statement was that government is worse than private in fraud and overpricing.

See, you've created a strawman.  Nice try.  But I never said that.  You either don't listen or you are deliberately twisting things.  Maybe both.  Reread what I said.  Lay off the beer.

I would like to see some figures comparing the fraud and incompetence in business against that in the public sector.

Back up your claim. It's your turn to prove things.. I'm always getting the job!!

Still no figures.

1000's of building companies here cheating everyone for many many years..

The possibility of no fraud in the private sector is zilch.

Prove me wrong!!

You are stating nothing the government does works? or just the bits you don't like..

And that does not prove anything. Your health companies have policies to cancel policies over silly reasons.... "you can't have chemo as you didn't tell us you had gallstones"....

... "I didn't know I had gallstones".

Prove to me that the private sector can be trusted to run social programs without fraud.. "death panels" and overcharging through monopolies.

Artful Dodger: Then part of the problem is private intrusion on the government.

Such is illegal openly over here and those caught lose their heads.

And until the two are separate there is no way you can say it's all the governments fault. Do you have notes, video's of all the meetings with lobbyists?

In the end it's all just opinion. But by UK standards.. it's illegal.
