          Beck flings enough dung around to be considered a monkey. :-)

          Nah... Rush is the Lion (no guts), Beck is definitely the Scarecrow (no BRAINS) and Savage is TOTALLY the Tin Man (no heart). O'Rielly is DOROTHY - just trying to get back home. Not to Kansas in this case, but to the simpler, more decent Norman Rockwell lifestyle that "Kansas" now represents. (It's still in B&W however.) The WIZARD in all of this would be RUPPERT MURDOCH, who will grant what all off them want, in exchange for the broomstick (telepromter?) of the wicked witch of the west: Barack Obama. (The wicth of the East - the one that had a house fall on her? Yeah, that would be Hillary Clinton.) As for Glinda, the GOOD witch of the North? Ann Coulter, obviously.

          How's THAT for some good old fashion conservative up-is-downism?

      you know, it seems like ALL of these Rep "commentators" feel they can say anything, at any time without and consequences, it's all for ratings, and show, I wonder, if the more they are exposed, the more "attention" they get, there ratings go up? You should be suspended for not telling the truth, I know if I lied at my job, I would be suspended, or have to deal with the consequences, I thought that Rep claimed the "moral high ground and are the keepers of moral standards" this lying, goes against everything I learned growing up...shame, shame,...

        Well that's easy...

        O'Reilly is in the middle. Tin-can Limbaugh is on the left. and that moronic imbecile Glenn Beck is on the right.

      It was a train ride...a wek ago. Don't these women have a life. Enough. Beck is supposed to remember every detail of every encounter of he's a liar.

      Have you listened to Walter's latel..."Well, you know. I never give my own opinion.." is she for real. Might as well have been Obama's campaign manager.

      It is easy to see why olbermann hates Fox and O'Reilly so much, in the latest rating O'Reilly got 3 times the viewers that olbermann got. O'Reilly's reruns outdraw olbermann's prime time shows. olbermann is just a bitter little boy.

        yeah, billo's numbers are bigger but this is explained the way the rest of the shows on fox are. they get higher ratings than msnbc because thier viewers are all the right wing nuts that have their views spoon fed to them by fox. murdock may be an ass but he is good at business. he found the nutty finge niche that he can cater to and those people while on the margins make up a lage number. 1% of 400 million people is still 4 million. that pads their stats. however that still means that the VAST majority of people get their news from more reliable sources.ratings have absolutly zero to do with the truth and accuracy

        Wow, what's this, another idiotic 'analysis' by none other than fairliberal... here's something to ponder, not everyone is motivated by 'ratings'. Some people are actually motivated by the truth and thus have a desire to promote it. Take a hint: you don't hear Olbermann or for that matter most libs ranting and raving about 'ratings', instead, all that crap comes from the Right.

          No the reason that olbermann and other libs are not talking about ratings is that they are perpetually losers, why highlight that. But you can bet your botton dollar that if they did get the better ratings we would hear about it all the time.

            Losers, huh? Why, because the 'ratings' say so? Typical 'con' response - all about ratings and therefore revenue. Yeah, the guy who dies with the most toys wins, right, genius?

            Here's another hint since you aren't getting it: just because someone is 'popular' doesn't automatically make that person intelligent or GASP! correct. To put it to you in simple terms, lots of stupid people watch Fox and believe their propaganda as the gospel and not so many other people - who are intelligent and wish for the truth - watch MSNBC.

            Now does that help ya?

              i'm not sure about intelligent, truth-seeking people going to msnbc for said intelligence and truth. they won't find it there.

              what olberman does is an attempt to mimic o'reilly's over-blown, self-righteous, bottom-of-the-barrel, lowest-common-denominator pandering, but directed from the nominal left of the political spectrum, as opposed to o'reilly's fanatical, hateful, deceptive, offensive take from the right.

              the idea is, there are a lot of people out there who need to be told how to think, and not all of them (but most of them) are "right-wing," so msnbc is content to take the ratings they can get by throwing up a nominal left-winger of the same mold as o'reilly.

              the reason o'reilly's show is three times as successful is not that there are three times as many conservatives who own televisions, but that there are three times as many stupid conservatives who own televisions. that, and conservatives seem to be much more keen on having their own views shouted at them every day of the week, maybe it makes them feel more comfortable. maybe that's a hint that, without the constant reinforcement, they might have time to question their beliefs?

        I have a theory as to why O'Really gets higher ratings: We all watch him for a good laugh.
