Seeing people yell is funny and entertaining. Also, those names are quite controversial and popular, regardless what news outlet you're watching, so people are wanting to see what all the fuss is about.

Fox News seems to put more focus on generating ratings at any cost than any other network. Cause and effect.

Yeah... the other networks are only in it for the love of delivering timely news...lol
Don't you think Obertard would love to have O'Reilly or Becks ratings...
All he does now is talk about their shows and try and rag on them anyway...lol

Love is the answer

I love watching Fox News. It's ridiculous. I can't blame thousands of others for doing likewise. Entertainment is great. News is boring.

Hell, even I watch O'Reilly sometimes. He really is entertaining.

Sorry to burst anyone's bubble who's delusional enough to think this is a sign of a Republican revolution going on, but Fox has always gotten higher ratings. Has nothing to do with anything except for the fact that they're more entertaining than Olbermann and Anderson Cooper.

Hence how the Big O came to be.

*edit: To those who don't see the writing on the wall: 2010... I do have a problem with those that take everything that Limbaugh, Hannity & Beck as "gospel".

Ignorant rednecks watch the most TV?
That and Fox News is closer to Pro-Wrestling than intellectual debate and analysis - so the remote-flipping masses are more likely to stick on it.

I'd have watched that TBH, if only to see if he nailed her for ruining the election because she's an ignorant bimbo or if he grovelled because he knows shes going to be the next US president.
Could have been a bit of both I guess.

Ha!... Blend em together and you get the "Naked News". It exists. I've seen it before. I was a mere prepubescent at that time, but I made myself a promise to obtain that channel when I got older. Thanks for I'd forgotten about it. Time to call COMCAST.

It really does have more balance than most other US media outlets. Sorry. Oh, topless darts would be a great sports show.

Its better than it was, even Bill O'Reilly seems to be sticking with the rabies shots, but then Glenn Beck is so far off in GOP la-la land the average gets swung way over.

Oh, topless darts would be a great sports show.

It was, but not as good as 'Painted Ladies' was as an art show.
