Episodes Of “Lie To Me” And “Top Model” Beat Out Obama’s 100 Days Press Conference For Ratings

  •  May 1, 2009

Heh:

FOX Lie to Me 2.4/7 2.1/7 7.88
CW Top Model 1.8/6 2.1/7 4.00
ABC Obama 1.6/5 1.4/5 6.12
CBS Obama 1.5/5 0.9/3 6.01
NBC Obama 1.6/5 1.1/4 6.68
UNI Obama 1.3/4 1.3/4 3.224

Of course, Obama’s overall audience was undoubtedly larger given that it was split up between different channels. Even so, Fox (which unlike, say, NBC hasn’t had to take any government bailouts) clearly made the better business decision.

    Don’t know about you, but I, as well as others are just plain sick of seeing Obama on 24/7. He is hitting or going to hit the over-saturation point and people are going to tune him out because they are just plain sick of seeing him.

    sanity? That is when the real shitsandwich will be rammed down America’s throat. Once people just stop paying attention, then the real agenda will move rapidly forward. Hence the entire, wall to wall, 24/7 push.

    Christ man, show some respect.

    Heh

    10,154,000 more people watched Obama’s press conference than the other two shows combined.

    Of course, that doesn’t even include the numbers from fox, CNN, MSNBC and CSpan.

    I think when viewers tuned in to “Lie to Me”, they thought they were tuning in to an Obama press conference. Easy to confuse the two.

    Lie To Me, Top Model, Obama…
    so the same thing was on every channel!

    boob, Barri’s viewership numbers were in the toilet, way, way below the viewership of the regular primetime cable crap.

    Hell, I watched 3 hours of Futurama last night. Did not even know your boy Barri was having his Good Time Political Variety Show last night. And damned well would not have altered my viewing last night anyway had I known in advance.

    Softball questions is not even the half of it. If I have to here how Obama is going to re-make America one more time without as much as a simple follow up question from the so called journalists I’m gonna scream. When is someone going to stand up and challenge this fraud and ask him when he plans to uphold the Constitution as he pledged under oath. If more people would have watched they might start seeing how bad Obamatopia will be for our great country.

    I don’t know what to make of this, actually, as I don’t know how these numbers compare to other presdiential addresses. I do know that as I watched it, I began thinking to myself “all this preplanned softball questioning from the press better preempt the beginning of LOST”.

    I don’t know how to Tivo.
    I see enough of the guy .
    I have ripped a hard drive out of a Tivo.

  • WOOFX

    Set your TIVO, he has been renewed for another season.

    Obama could just loaf around watching the tube if he hired John Lovitz to do his liar character from SNL instead. It would get better ratings, be more entertaining, and about as useful at getting any truth across.
