If MSNBC went off the air tomorrow, what difference would it make?

Ronan is not doing so well:

 

Good god, why do you guys follow this shit?

 

Really.

 

Sometimes wonder the same thing.

Anyone know an estimate of the combined nightly prime-time ratings of CNN, Fox, and MSNBC? Seem to recall reading a couple of years ago it was miniscule compared to overall evening viewing.

 

One of the good thing that being a part of message boards does is open my eyes up to things of which I am unaware.

I had NO idea people under 75 watched these dopey talk cable networks until I came here 10+ years ago. There is nobody in my life who watches them (except my 79 year old mom who watches Fox News).

 

Me too.

 

Until now, I've never even heard of Ronan Farrow.

 

I first heard of him when he started singing "God Bless America"
at Yankee games.

 

No, you're thinking of that famous tenor, Enrico Palazzo.

 

Even worse than people looking to Fox or MSNBC as actual news sites are the people who look to Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert. And there are a lot of them.

 

Come on, he looks just like his dad, Frank Sinatra Woody Allen!

 

To Poin's point:

According to an April 28 article in The New York Times, the overall average ratings in prime time were as follows - Fox News: just fewer than two million viewers; MSNBC: 710,000; CNN: 564,000.
