On any given day, Glenn Beck’s show at 5:00 PM Eastern on Fox News, has better ratings than Fox’s Greta Van Susteren’s show that runs at night, prime time shall we say. Susteren, regardless how weak she is versus the others in the evening at FNC, is still stronger than the hot-heads on MSNBC and the losers at CNN. Therefore, it is strange the Drudge Report-posted pending NYT story that Fox and Beck will part ways.
Indeed, Beck being “extreme” may be the reason as to why Beck may end his career at Fox. However if he is extreme, in addition to having ratings way better than Maddow, Shultz and others, maybe MSNBC should hire Beck…
At any rate, if we look at the age 25-54 demographic, Beck indeed does not do so well as the overall number may suggest, but he still has good numbers.
Consider the average per day viewership that the following shows had Live (not replays) with the age 25-54 demographic for March first, second and third:
Matthews: 164,670
Ed Show: 268,670
O’donnell 280,670
Maddow: 367,670
Greta: 461,000
Beck: 464,670.
Hannity: 609,000
Oreilly: 856,000
Who knows: Maybe running a TV station is not my line of work, as of yet. Read the numbers here from Nielson
