Fox New's Glenn Beck might be losing advertisers due to liberal boycott campaigns, but he continues to remain popular with the public.
In fact, on Wednesday evening, with conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh as his guest -- not to mention NewsBusters' own Seton Motley! -- Beck stole the cable news night.
As reported by TVbytheNumbers.com moments ago:
Though a little scandal might alienate advertisers, it’s pure ratings gold. Last night Glenn Beck had over 3 million viewers at 5pm, second only to O’Reilly for the night. But, Beck had more 25-54 viewers than O’Reilly (888K to 876K). I don’t watch or really even care about the cable news wars, but still…wow. Even though Beck airs before primetime, when there are fewer people watching TV, he had the most 25-54 viewers in the cable news world for the night.
Amazing.
Here are the numbers (demo in first parentheses):
The O’Reilly Factor – 3,303,000 viewers (876,000) (1,468,000)Of course, Keith Olbermann will likely continue to tell his viewers that he was number one last night.
