As Olbermann stated, "Not counting Tuesday's election coverage, are down another five percent just from last week. Countdown's, coincidentally, are up another 32 percent. A look at that clichéd but coveted 25-54-year-old audience from last night: The O'Really Factor, 405,000; Countdown, 321,000; CNN, 210,000; Nancy 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Grace, 200,000. That's right -- we were doing 79 percent of Bill O's business." Olbermann also pointed out that other Fox News shows have slipped since Election Day, stating that Fox News' Fox Report with Shepard Smith finished third in its time slot. Olbermann added, "He will be severely punished!"
From the November 10 edition of MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann:
OLBERMANN: Its masterminds would argue just how connected or how intentional, but even they would agree the fates of Fox News Channel and the Republican Party are inextricably intertwined. So, guess who else is having a crappy week? Not counting Tuesday's election coverage, Bill Orally's ratings are down another five percent just from last week. Countdown's, coincidentally, are up another 32 percent. A look at that clichéd but coveted 25-to-54-year-old audience from last night: The O'Really Factor, 405,000; Countdown, 321,000; CNN, 210,000; Nancy "I Know What You Did Last Summer" Grace, 200,000. That's right -- we were doing 79 percent of Bill O's business. And it was worse the hour before at 7 o'clock. Wolf Blitzer, 327,000; Chris Matthews, 302,000; Shepard Smith on Fox, 262,000. Fox, third place. He will be punished severely!
Don't you just love it! Hopefully OReally will slink back under his rock...
