58.89 this morning.

A tick downward, but I voted "Keith who?" along with the rest of y'all.

Here's what it is now:

I have not read it yet, but there is a fairly new book out about ESPN.  Apparently the parts about Olbermann aren't exactly ones he'll put on his mantle.  :-)

Another glimpse into the insanity at the DUmp.

Didn't Queef only have about 250,000 when he was on the power house PMSnbc?

A million plus, it is to laugh.

I will be amazed if he gets over 100k.

I've never watched him, I've just seen clips on Newsbusters.  What offended me most about KO was his "Worst Person in the World" segment.  There are some bad apples in this world.  Wife beaters, child molesters, animal torturers, dictators & despots, population-starvers, kidnappers, murderers, mass murderers.  And he singles out some politician doing some little thing or other that Keef doesn't agree with.  It made a mockery of the true evil in the world.

The MSNBC moonbat shows draw 250-300K, and everyone in the country knows about and has access to MSNBC. The vast majority of people have never heard of CurrentTV, and the ones who have could not tell you if it's carried on their cable service.

No matter how fanatical the moonbat base may be, there's no way Keef can draw 100K on Current. When Keef's contract with Algore was announced, the story said Current TV primetime shows draw about 23,000 viewers nationwide. A lot of televised city council meetings draw that well.

I think that the poll was raised an order of magnitude. S/B

Over 100K
50k-99k
25k-49k
Under 25k

That looks far more reasonable.

Did anybody see this or hear about it anywhere in the media today? I listened to most of Rush's show and Vicki McKenna's but didn't hear anything. Maybe Greg Gutfeld will cover it tonight.

The fictional community access channel that carried Wayne's World on SNL would have as many viewers as Keef on Current.
Johnny LaRue's show and The Great White North on SCTV (sponsored by Tex and Edna Boil's Organ Emporium) would have as many viewers.

He looks like he's trying to pass a turd wrapped in barbed wire.   :rotf:

I'd wager 75% of the viewers were there out of curiousity.
A good number of those were moles looking for a laugh.
Watch the numbers drop within a short time.

You would think with the cult factor, if there was a cult factor, Olberman would be enough to make Current TV something other than a satellite station that has nothing interesting on. But then Algore has his own cult factor and he couldn't do anything with it.

He' probably got the job because he was the only one that found the shack that turd of a station operates out of.

Direction to Current TV.  (Based in SanFran)

West until you smell it.

North until you step in it.   :rotf:

The premiere of Current’s Countdown With Keith Olbermann averaged 179,000 viewers in news’ target demographic of 25- to 54-year-olds Monday at 8 p.m., according to numbers provided by Current.
 
That’s a big improvement for Current, which averaged 30,000 viewers in primetime for the first quarter.

LOL. Blockbuster event.

I'm sorry, but those directions will take you to Ann Arbor, Michigan.
