Good News... Again

Aug 20th, 2011

The ratings for some of the most dishonest right wing propagandists continue to show evidence of freefall. I noted last month what is arguably the under-reported story of the year, that Fox News' ratings are in a devastating decline. It gets better. A lot better.


From Business Insider:

"The just-released Arbitron report reveals that a lot less people are listening to right-wing talk radio.

With a lull in ratings since November, Rush Limbaugh had a 3.0 share of listeners for his radio time slot, which is a 33% slide from October and from last April, reports Crain's Business.

Meanwhile, The Sean Hannity Show was reported to be down 28% from its peak numbers in the fall."

This does beg a few questions. Where is the shake-up? You know? Where is the evidence that they have been approached by management and are attempting to retool their programs for better market share?

There is none. And, you shouldn't expect any. That is because these are not pundits. They are craven corporatist activists whose masters are willing to lose money so that they might keep dis-informing the public.

Are you ready to fight for the reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine yet?

Okay, Look... This Is STILL Wrong

July 28th, 2011

No matter how many nearly unspeakable thoughts I have had about Hugh Hewitt, Pat Caddell belting him in the arm tonight was still wrong. Don't misunderstand me, I have wanted to sock Hewitt on many occasions. That doesn't make it right. Also, Caddell has been an absolute troll since Obama became President. Weird times.

A VERY Reluctant Hat Tip

April 12th, 2011

While catching up on correspondence and confirming links for a few upcoming columns, I happened to have the FOXNews audio up on screen 2. I was about to switch feeds after hearing Sean Hannity introduce mean-spirited bomb-thrower Ann Coulter. I am glad I didn't. I would have missed this. After being asked by Hannity what she thinks of Donald Trump's flirtation with a Presidential run, Ms. Coulter not only engaged in withering criticism of his opportunistic "birtherism," she blew the whole meme out of the water. She also spoke to a particular truth that very, very few liberals are willing to acknowledge; the "birther" smear originated within the increasingly desperate Hilary Clinton camp in 2008. Regardless of her slams in the segment against President Obama, this is pretty good stuff. Can we be done now? I am quite uncomfortable praising Ms. Coulter.

Trainwreck

Jan 18th, 2011

Would someone please explain to me how Sarah Palin's first appearance since last week's wretched and narcissistic canned statement could actually have been worse than the original? Does she not have anyone on Team Palin that knows what they are doing? Is there no one who actually commands her respect that can simply look her in the eye and say, "Sarah. Let me explain to you what's wrong here?" 

Well, I guess the answers to these questions are all a resounding, "NO." 

No one has tried to "silence" you Sarah. That's quite different from hoping you'll shut up. It is with great relief that I read Joe Scarborough's piece in Politico this morning. He wrote it so the rest of us don't have to. In fact, he sums you up as succinctly as any pundit ever has:

"What a spoiled brat."

Hannity Deceptive? You bet.

Sept 12th, 2010

Hannity is clearly taking lessons from his pal, Breitbart.
