Is O'reilly Down for the Count?

Keith Olbermann's Countdown on MSNBC finally beat Bill O'reilly Factor on Fox News in the ratings last week. Countdown averaged 477,000 viewers while O'reilly Factor got 472,000. This is the first time ever that Countdown has topped the ratings. Obviously this is good news for Olbermann, but is it also good news for Obama? Countdown is as far left as O'reilly is to the right. Have viewers simply gotten tired of O'reilly's rants about liberal media? Do they just enjoy Olbermann's funny voice when he spoofs O'Reilly? Probably a little of both, however it's a sign (OK is a small sign) that Americans are not only tired of Bush but that they are craving liberal (omg) media. What do you think?

I think it's the year of the left, who finally may be right, in a country that has gone in a zigzag, I can take a little left turn. 

Congress will debate long enuff for us to speak - if we will and maybe some power can come back to the US in the form of jobs, domestic drilling, solar energy, wind energy (but not the hot wind in DC) and keeping our homeland secure by common sense immigration and border control. 

I'm so sick of the smugness of O' REALLY and FIXed News.  But, Lou Dobbs is coming in for a close 2nd.  He's got an EGO the size of  TEXAS.  I hope Keith stays sane and humble.

So what Olbermann barely beat O'Reileys ratings 1 time. Did you also right an article about all the weeks Olbermann's shows ratings were destroyed by Bill's show? Olbermann is a LEFT wing idiot who should have stuck to reporting about sports not polictics. I'm so sick of him blaming everthing on BUSH. I could not stand BUSH but he's not president anymore so just move on!

Where is olberman at in the ratings now? He never beat The Factor in the first place. Olberman is a circus side show freak boy. O'Reilly rules!!!
