You know considering how much Fox viewers loathe President Obama it is almost surprising that even 1.3 million were willing to tune in. Of course they undoubtedly did so in order to throw food at the screen and scream racial epithets, but still.
However it is yet another indication of the plummeting ratings overall that Fox has been experiencing since Obama, against all of their predictions, won his second term.
Let me just say that it could not hapen to a more deserving network.
There was even more viewership than reported, because many people (including me) watched the inauguration on the internet.
ReplyDeleteI don't imagine their viewers would have wanted to see their worst fears realized.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget that they blare FOX News at car repair shops, bars, etc. beyond the home viewers, so the tv is just 'on' in these places, regardless. There's no choice, it's stuck on Fox. Always gives me a massive headache when I take my car in for service. Since I NEVER watch Fox, I get *literally* sick with the frequency of hate that eminates from the screen,which my system is totally unaccustomed to.
ReplyDeleteExactly right. And I hate being forced to watch FOX News at restaurants and other public places, too. Ugh.
DeleteWhen I was working at the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, ALL public TVs were tuned to Fox. Everywhere th ere was a tv, it was on Fox. All vehicle radios were tuned to Rush Limbaugh. When I changed the radio station in the company vehicle to PBS, I was critized for listening to that "Communist" station. Needless to say, I did not engage in political conversations in this environment.
DeleteI watched on C-Span!
ReplyDeleteWhat would you expect from an organization that would pay a KNOW NOTHING PIMP'S WIFE to be a Pundit about any news worthy subject? Greta and Sean were derelict in their duties to investigate some of the allegations of: Pimping, Dairygate, Housegate, Wild Ride Gate, Unwed Teen Mothers Gate,Troopergate, and
ReplyDeleteUnethical conduct as Governor prior to accepting Sarah Palin on their shows.
Fuck fox..I just laugh at their so called journalists.By the way Fox where's S.Paymeee..
ReplyDelete... showed everyone just how unhinged she is, and recently was canned.
DeleteFox's idea of "Fair and Balanced"
ReplyDeleteThe Five: four hard-right conservatives vs. one fairly moderate liberal in Bob Beckel
If anyone wonders why Fox is losing viewers...
just watch The Five.
Fair? hardly - balanced? four to one?
The Fox numbers probably came from all of those doctors' offices and garages that get Fox as part of their special in-office packages. I was at the doctor's office Tuesday morning but was only in the waiting room a few minutes fortunately. Thank God the sound was off. Had I been stuck in the waiting room much longer I would have asked the receptionist to turn it off or find a truthful channel - the Weather Channel or HGTV, anything but Fox.

Well, didn't Bret Baier mention that he thought crowds were down considerably? What he meant to say was that none of the Fox News crowd was watching. They were too busy writing hate mail to Erick Erickson at Red State for telling them to basically get over it and move on.
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin from FIRED FOX PUNDIT to Unpaid Facebook
ReplyDeletePundit. BWAHAHAHA.
DOES SARAH PALIN HAVE A PAID JOB AS AN ANCHORWOMAN ON HER OWN NETWORK AND DOES NOT HAVE TO SHARE TIME WITH ANYBODY?
DeleteIts a stretch but knowing Sarah, she could see it that way and probably will put it in her memoirs?
Title:
Sarah Palin
Facebook Anchorwoman
Sarah does report one sided, unfair and unbalanced word salad on her own Facebook page.
Question is Sarah collecting a paycheck from SarahPac or has SarahPac been compensating Palin's expenses and what nots?
What's a "what not" you ask?
That's a general covers all trailerpark hillbilly jibberish talk for groceries, electricity, clothes, shoes, lawyers, condoms, birth control, tv, cars, hair school scolarship, prostitutes, chin or breast implants, cosmetic surgeries .... what nots.
Not a bad gig for someone who can't get a job at a real network and may have lost her job at FOX.
Great news for the Palin kids is that they did not have school on President Obama's Inauguration Day.
ReplyDeleteWait a minute!
Are there any Palin kids even in school?
Speaking if all things faux, our hyena of the north has a gig!

That's the most disgusting grift I've ever seen. They're exploiting the remains of a brain dead woman they starved to death so the husband could re marry?
DeleteWhat does she do for the "Talent" portion? Dig up the body?
That's what's become of Sarah, how pathetic!
Maybe Faux should bring their comic relief, Sarah from Alaska....

I know how FOX can increase viewership overnight!
ReplyDeleteFOX News can get their FOX News contributor stationed in Wasilla to use her personal contacts and bust the prostitution ring in Wasilla and as a bonus she can include the Anchorage Police protection ring.
Guaranteed to bring in viewers!
Well, Fox will report it as "Fox News, Number 1" (At being number 3 in the ratings, again)
ReplyDeletePoor Seanny boy!
Perhaps Fox News audience mostly had no interest in watching the inaugeration.
ReplyDeleteKids say darnedest things: i gave my 3 1/2 grandson a pair of socks that had an American flag design by Ralph Lauren for a xmas gift.
Today my grandson told his mom "I think Obama gave me these socks.".
