MSNBC ratings dip without Olbermann

How's MSNBC doing post-Olbermann? The early numbers are down.

Following the sudden departure of the mercurial host of "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" one week ago tonight, "Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell" moved into its place on the schedule. O'Donnell, a former U.S. Senate aide, "West Wing" producer and fill-in host on "Countdown," got his own MSNBC show late last year.

O'Donnell should have benefited from both Monday's show, when weekend media coverage — and the fact that the show was still listed as "Countdown" by most DVRs — drew a crowd to MSNBC. Tuesday's show led into the State of the Union address, which should've helped as well.

Well since all ten of his viewers are now boycotting MSNBC it makes sense the ratings are further down the toilet.

So now that none of them watch MSNBC anymore just what do they think is going to happen to Maddcow?
Just imagine the bellyaching and crying when her show that they don't watch anymore gets the axe.  :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Even if they hire that worm, Odorman back, they'll still suck in the ratings. At least this way, they get to keep the carpets from urine stains.

Hope for all that is good and decent that they DO NOT hire him back.

I predicted the death of PMSNBC in '11 not long ago. Late '10, I think. Here's hoping it comes to fruition.

"Schultz has been on thin ice with network executives before. According to the New York Post, NBC News President Steve Capus and MSNBC President Phil Griffin threatened to fire Schultz in August following a newsroom rant. Schultz had reportedly said, “I’m going to torch this ****ing place” in a fury over a lack of promotion for his show."
HA!

BEHOLD!

The kinder, gentler leftist media rhetoric.

And yet, the whole "message" vs. "messenger" thing never really crosses their wee little minds, does it?  :fuelfire:

Oh, I dunno.  There will always be a niche on television for "Lockup" and Chris Hansen chasing perverts marathons.  Seems to me those shows do better than their primetime programming.

MSNBC is dead.

It's kind of like a lot of lower life forms, it keeps going through the motions long after its head has been cut off...cockroaches, for instance.

Ever heard of the "Snakes don't die until after sundown" folk tale? Pretty accurate. Their nerves twitch for hours after ya cut their heads off!

They die pretty quickly when they are chopped up by the blades of a lawnmower.

I still wouldn't touch anywhere near the face region. I've seen them go through that "bite" motion after they've had their head lopped off.

I once killed a Timber Rattler tryin' to get into a slash pile where my cat had stashed a litter of her kittens. Sucka was almost 6 feet long! Had 13 rattles and a button and bigger around in the middle than a baseball!

I shot the ****er thru the head with my trusty .22 mag rifle, cut it's damn head off and burried it! Ya know that sucka wouldn't quit sqirimin' for close to eight hours so I could skin it, dress it and throw it in the fryin' pan!

"Toots" wouldn't eat it! She don't know what she was missin'! Helluva lot more tender than chicken and in my opinion a heckuva lot tastier! The cat luved the stuff! Didn't let the dogs have any, as I didn't want 'em gettin' any ideas out in the woods!

I've told the story on here before, but I came close to getting bit by a Mojave green rattlesnake when I was at FT Bliss.  The thing was in the center of a triangle of three SP4s, so I strode over to see it, and stopped maybe 10 feet away.  The damn thing charged me, stopping four-five feet away, and I remember thinking, "How badly do I want to get out of this exercise?"  My answer was three words, with a backwards step for each one:  "Not . . . that . . . badly."  My commo sergeant stepped behind it with a walking stick, smacked it on the back of the head, and killed it.  I stood there with my jaw on the sand, saying "I thought you were afraid of snakes."  His answer?  "Sir, we have to sleep here."  I thought to myself, "Damn--that's smart!"
