O’Reilly Meets Colbert Creates Huge Ratings Spikes


Colbert helped O'Reilly draw more than 2.9 million viewers, a boost of 46% over last quarter and a hike of 67% among 25- to 54-year-old viewers.

With O'Reilly on his show, Colbert garnered 1.64 million viewers, up 50% over last quarter, and his biggest audience ever.

Not much to say about this, just that it is interesting to me. I like to look at TV ratings. And with Colbert getting 1.64 million viewers, that's another show that has way more viewers than anything on CNN.

I don’t think there’s any doubt, when it comes to TV news, O’Reilly is the big man on the totem pole.

I got his book “Culture Warrior” for Christmas. It was a decent book (not as good as “Who’s looking out for you?” I thought), but I was a little disappointed. It does however make an excellent resource for examples of left leaning lunatics.
