howard stern is the clear winner...
people pay 13$ a month to listen to him...
he has at the worst 6 million listeners... A DAY...
20 million sirius subscribers and the majority of them listen to howard exclusively...
Scary how many watch that weasel, Hannity.
Scary how many watch that weasel, Hannity.
The sad thing is, they believe the bs that comes out of his mouth.
We all know why!!
As bad and biased as FOX news is, it's message is much closer to what the average american believes than MSNBC, CNN, etc.
We've seen some posts on the peter schiff hit job on MSNBC I think, and how they've been bashing the tea parties. Those networks are really just pushing their socialist agenda, and while it wasn't so obvious when they were bashing bush all day (that was quite entertaining actually), it's obvious now and most people are turned off.
Fox News
Seeing as all the Fox shows are on different times and not in competition with each other I am wondering if in fact they are just shuffling around the same 3-4 million people.
annunaki: good question
Why is this post even on "DailyPaul"
Fox "trashed" Dr. Paul in 07 and 08. They were un-fair in their reporting during the debates -- including "new convert" Glenn Beck.
Fox supported the War -- the Patriot Act -- the Homeland Security; as did Beck, O'Reilly, and Hannity.
Foreign Military Colonialism cost $1Trillion per year -- That's Fox's Legacy.
DailyPaulers who support this news corp (other than Judge Napolitano) are sell-outs in my estimate.
You can't turn a black kettle into a white pot nor vice versa.

Now that Rupert Murdoch's
Now that Rupert Murdoch's candidates have taken a dive, and the economy ditto (just as he said it would), Fox has abandoned it's "Ron Paul doesn't exist / is a fruitcake" stance and is giving him LOTS of face time on the financial segments.
During the election Fox was the neocon news network. But even the neocons are waking up. (And Fox' advertisers are waking up to the paulites as a demographic with conservative views and lots of spending money left.)
= = = =
"Obama’s Economists: ‘Stimulus’ Has Cost $278,000 per Job."
That means: For each job "created or saved" about five were destroyed.
MichaelMcC: I beg to differ
There is no "waking" up with these folks.
The Tea Baggers "stole" the "Tea Party" movement -- Ron Paul is not invited to 99% of those.
The 912movement with Glenn Beck is another "theft"
The "conservatives" showing up at these town halls are NOT predominately RPers -- They hate Obama and Democrats. They fully supported McCain or Romney or Huckabee.
Yes we are showing up to these events, but these people were "pro-war" under Bush and it was the Bush policies that Obama is furthering -- they do not see that connection.
Murdoch and Co -- follow the money and the money is not moving towards free-markets if it is moving toward the ballot box -- the two are oxymoronic

That is because they are sounding like YOU and ME

Fox
Least we forget who owns Fox and the spin they represent
It really is incredible how
It really is incredible how they have latched on to NON-neo-con issues like civil liberties, fiscal responsibility, and ending the Fed. This is solely due to the Ron Paul rEVOLution. If it wasn't for that, all we would be hearing about is how Obama isnt killing enough people in the Middle East and doesnt support Israel enough.

Oh I don't think they have
Oh I don't think they have any complaint with him on those two counts.
Fox & CNBC are my sources for current events
I don't think we can really love our news provider. If they are spinning opinion exactly the way you want it, you are nothing better than the manipulated masses that follow CNN and American Idol. Dissent is good, it fine tunes your position. Remember Beck, Hannity, and O'Reilly are opinion shows, not hard news. That's what sells though. I don't mind any of them, but only DVR Beck and watch if I have time.
What's your next best alternative? NPR/PBS?

NPR/PBS is fully controlled just like Fox.

Praise for Clinton....
Yah... I almost fell off my chair when O'Reilly called Hillary Clinton a "Patriot" (as opposed to a pin-head) because she was dancing with the Kenyans. Egads she looked like such a moron.
I hate him, but I watch occasionally just to see what the jerk has to say.
Why Isn't FOX News broad casting OVER THE AIR news at 6:30pm
http://www.dailypaul.com/node/102898
Why Isn't FOX News using free digital tv to their full advantage?
They need to be broad casting a National News Broad Cast at 6:30 pm est like the other networks. They have the station network a crossed the nation, why are they not using it? They must like the cable and satellite viewers only. Those of us who believe in Free(dom) Digital TV are not important!
http://www.dailypaul.com/node/102898 Same link as above
Or they can now go on a sub channel on their FOX OVER THE AIR NETWORK and broad cast the FNC 24/7 like cable and satellite with out interrupting each stations programming. What a boost for Freedom's soap box that could be. Get on it People, ask them why they are not on the air.

Beck
is the only real hope for legitimacy we have on the MSM. Unless they put Freedom Watch on air.
They are using our tactics.. that means we are one step ahead of them in the idea department. Beck really likes us, you can tell its genuine. I like the fact he is an average Joe trying to support dissent.
I hate FOX. I mean... like HATE that network. Speaking of dissent, when FOX did not rebroadcast the 'let me see if I get this straight' I almost broke my television. My jaw was on the floor. I could not believe I just saw that form of censorship in America. It was so blatant. I told the cable company if they didnt disconnect my cable that day that I would do it myself.
I havent had cable since.
And Ive noticed that with most of the folks in our movement. Not TV watchers for the most part. I guess that is what happens when you critically think as opposed to wait for something to happen. We have that wonderful freedom of choice on the internet, something we dont get with a television. Its called programming for a reason.
'Peace is a powerful message.' Ron Paul
"..you can tell he is genuine."
I can tell he is a genuinely great actor, comedian, pawn. He is controlled, period. Look where he took the FEMA camps. He asked if the GOP would be better led by Palin, Jindal or Romney. He was obviously given the assignment to get out in front of our group and lead us so that when he recommends a neocon with vigor in the elections, we will FOLLOW. He is FEEDING us now so that we will be his PETS when voting time comes around.
Yes, there is blatant censorship, but there is also very, very clever propaganda. This evil we fight is anything but dumb.
Beck is an average Joe?? Describe Beck NOW and then figure out if he is an average Joe. Many average Joe's make it really, really big simply because they are willing to live the life dictated to them. Obama is a case in point.
I am sorry, but you are so deceived and I have many more words in my vocabulary, but I will leave you alone.
"Beck really likes us, you can tell its genuine".
I'm sure there are a lot of people who wish to believe this. He is merely playing a game, one that is working very well, judging by his ratings. If his feelings for the liberty movement were genuine, he would not be on the air.
I've said it before and I will say it again, if there is another terrorist attack, Beck will be the first one screaming to have us all locked up.

It is amazing what can change in 18-24 months, back then Fox News treated Dr. Paul and his supporters like some roving band from the Libertarian Death Star, now they are knocking on his door daily for interviews and our platform is the divine oracle.
Fox Network=worst network
I loved this video that someone made about that network during the presidential debates.
Fox New stacks the debates
IDK how anyone can watch Bill O'Rielly and his falafel yet he's clearly dominating.
Bull Oh Really & Pox News
Thanks for the video. It's the first time I've seen Carol describing how Fox had stacked the audience so that they couldn't even buy tickets for anyone else to join them in that Neo-con cesspit.
But they couldn't put his fire out and the warm wind of truth and liberty blew the through that frosty audience. I'm sure the banksters were disappointed that their investment in packing the house only gave them lackluster dissent.
The TV viewers rose to the occasion, responding the only way they could. We watched the way they pitched their spitballs, and Ron still hit them out of the park.
When Rudy G. quit, he joked about how Ron had won all the debates, because every time he went back to his room, Paul always had the greater text %s. (Sometimes more than all the others combined.)
Well, two years later, where are those other candidates in the fight? Huck has a Fox TV show once a week and does a Paul Harvey style radio news and comment that are cute and semi-substantive. Mitt shows up once in a while, but who cares?
The only real consistent program for informed patriots that Fox allows to be done in their studios remains an internet secret to the rest of their cable audience. I believe Freedom Watch exists online only because the message of Liberty that Ron Paul and Judge Napolitano have long stood for continues to appeal to the majority of Foxs' viewers.
These ratings reflect a descending curve. As ratings for all MSM go the way of the toilet, its the stuff floating on top that flushes last.
For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst and provide for it. - Patrick Henry
that was great
I havent seen that video before.
'Peace is a powerful message.' Ron Paul
Well
Well you know the ppl are in good hand so long as they're watching that Fox Network!
I love how it doesn't tell
I love how it doesn't tell you any statistics as to how the numbers were generated.
Do they assume per each television a family is watching it?
In that case divide all the numbers by 4.
Now if we take into account an actual "unique view" on a website, I saw we are way beyond Faux news, put together.
interesting, Glenn Beck Total Viewers: +110%

wow
I dont know who calculates this stuff, but 2+ million watching Hannity, what is the matter with people in this country?
Notice Beck is up the most.
Notice Beck is up the most. This does show a slight sign of hope. His show is no Freedom Watch, but has been better than the other mainstream garbage. Just look at the treatment Schiff gets on MSNBC compared to Beck.
I dont watch or like FOX News either
I just thought this was a interesting post.
