The October ratings are out and according to The Hill newspaper, CNN beat Fox News for the first time in 15 years.

While Kelly’s own program still finished atop cable news in the key 25-54 demographic for the month, CNN beating Fox News overall in primetime in the demo for the first time in over a decade comes as Kelly has emerged as the face as of the network thanks to the honchos in the Murdoch family.

Kelly has also emerged as the network’s leading anti-Donald Trump voice, using her platform to try to disparage the Republican presidential nominee and his supporters.

Since she took a position against him early in the primaries in the summer of 2015, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on at least two occasions beat Kelly in both the demo and overall ratings.

The problem with their theory, Megyn Kelly's ratings are going up. She is now the top rated host, surpassing BORe.

Slow and steady wins the (ratings) race: Megyn Kelly tops Bill O'Reilly to become top-rated cable news program in key demo for October

    Megyn Kelly was the most watched cable news program for the month of October among viewers aged 25 to 54
    Kelly pulled in an average of  641,000 viewers a night in that key demo, 20,000 more than her fellow Fox News host Bill O'Reilly
    The O'Reilly Factor did however managed to bet out The Kelly File in overall viewers, with 3.383million viewers turning in nightly versus 2.984million
    Those number helped Fox News top CNN and MSNBC in weekday ratings for the month of October
    News of Kelly's big win for the month of October comes less than one week after Rupert Murdoch very publicly discussed her contract negotiations

Hannity is also killing it on the radio dial! He has definitely stepped up his game. It doesn't hurt, either, that he has been laying out the best positive arguments for Donald Trump.

Another irrational posting from HAPPY2BWRONG. I wonder why the original Hill article wasn't posted and instead 3rd hand information from a fat basement dwelling loser like Matt Boyle was used? Oh yeah. Because the original source piece says NOTHING about Kelly being the weak link....

CNN enjoyed its strongest ratings month in years in October, beating rival Fox News in the key 25-54 demographic for a full month for the first time since 2001.
 
CNN averaged 704,000 prime time viewers overall in October from the ages 25-54 demographic — the most coveted group by advertisers.
 
Fox came in second with an average of 663,000 viewers, while MSNBC averaged 432,000 viewers — an all-time high for the Comcast-owned network.
 
CNN also finished first in a close race for total day in the key demographic over Fox News with 7,000-viewer edge.
 
Fox, however, still won the race in total viewers. Overall, Fox averaged 1.547 million viewers to CNN's 1.02 million and MSNBC's 886,000.
 
All three cable news networks saw significant gains in year-over-year growth during October, which featured three debates (two presidential, one vice presidential) and plenty of new controversy surrounding both presidential candidates.
 
MSNBC saw the most growth with a 129 percent jump in viewers compared to October 2015. CNN increased viewership by 100 percent, and Fox News climbed 43 percent in total day.
 
October marked CNN’s most-watched month in 11 years.
 
Fox's "The Kelly File" finished first in the 25-54 demographic in show rankings, followed by Fox’s ”The O’Reilly Factor.” CNN's “Anderson Cooper 360”took third in the category, with Fox’s "Hannity" fourth and MSNBC's "The Rachel Maddow Show" fifth.
 
In total viewers, "The O’Reilly Factor" finished first with an average audience of 3.38 million, followed by "The Kelly File" with 2.98 million and "Hannity" at 2.49 million.

The weakest link? Hannity. He behind Andersen Cooper in the Key Demo.

Right.  Let's not forget that Hannity is now promoting Trump talking pens!   :silly: :silly:

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

There is no way to know how Hong Kong Phooey is doing ratings wise on the radio because Arbiron/Neilson doesn't release it's findings to the public.

Frank, Frank, Frank...

Don't go bringing facts to someone else's propaganda party. It's bad form.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Do the news dressed like that and I promise her ratings will crash through any roof
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

I stopped listening to Hannity during my commute home from work back during Primary season.  The Mr. Trump asskissery was too much to tolerate.  The thing is... I am not alone.  The claim that Hannity is surging in the ratings is, at the least, suspect.

It's way healthier than being fascinated with a consistent loser like Donny.

BTW, even after this bombshell FBI investigation, Donny is still DOWN in the RCP with only ONE poll showing him up. State polls are even worse.

Oh, yeah? Well, tell me, then, why Fox is so eager to sign her to a $20 million contract extension?
