Judging by the escalating boos and catcalls, squirting lighter fluid on burning coals would have been wiser. Beck is a hero to many people who are not buying the Age of Obama, and so is Fox. The network was already on pace for its best ratings year even before the health care debate sent viewership jumping during a traditionally slow month for news.
Fox’s viewership is up 11 percent over last year, according to Nielsen Media Research. CNN and MSNBC, which benefited from interest in the campaign last year, are down. O’Reilly, who already had cable news’ most popular show, Beck and Sean Hannity lead the way.
“Who’s that going to help?” O’Reilly said. “Us, that’s who. Our ratings are already soaring because we don’t denigrate the protesters, the way a lot of other TV news organizations do. They’re dying. We’re on fire.”
The US population is generally center-to-right and they are basically the only ones criticizing the government, so this is expected.
I consider myself a pro-liberty conservative, but Fox’s hosts are just nut-cases that contradict themselves.
Fox must be doing something right, they have all you jerk-offs watching them…
What? You don’t watch them? Then you’re not qualified to judge them ARE YOU!!!
I don’t believe your statement that the U.S. population is generally center to right. By whose biased polls?
Fox sucks rotten eggs for all the lies they tell and promulgate and to a lesser extent, so do other media outlets since the age of the fairness doctrine went away and yellow journalistic sensationalist seeking owners got to do what they wanted but that doesn’t excuse inaccurate or incorrect claims such as this one.

There’s at least 75% percent of the population on the left side of the curve’s peak.
That bell is looking a tad deformed these days.
Hahaw! I was right all along. The best thing that could happen to conservative media was for Obama to win the presidential election. Everyone at the end of the Bush Jr. was tired of listening conservative TV/Radio hosts treating people who disagreed with Cheney/Rove as traitors to the U.S. nation.
To think that Fox or MSNBC (or anyone else on MSM) will give you factual reporting is to live a lie.
I’m having trouble finding one talking head anywhere that isn’t deserving of the label, “traitor.”
Dallas asks: “Are Eidard and Guilherme real names?”
I have no idea about Eideard, but Guilherme looks to me like a form of William. In Spanish there is Guillermo, in Italian Guglielmo and so on.
So Welcome, Bill!
