After Bill O?Reilly made an on-air plea on his radio show for viewers of the O?Reilly Factor to use DVRs to record the show, his audience went "Huh? What's a DVR?"

http://insidecable.blogsome.com/2007/09/17/fridays-numbers-66/

O?Reilly Factor - 2,026,000 viewers (25-54 demo: 320,000) Live and same day (DVR): 2,028,000 viewers (322,000)
Countdown w/ Olbermann ? 593,000 viewers (180,000) LSD: 644,000 viewers (216,000)

Out of two million O?Reilly viewers only TWO THOUSAND watched the show DVR-delayed. That's one in a thousand. And apprently noone over 54 uses a DVR to watch The Factor. Must be a great audience for ad sellers.

Conversely, almost ten percent of Olbermann viewers use DVRs. That is, it is hundred times more likely that an Olbermann viewer uses a DVR than an O?Reilly viewer uses a DVR.

Again, quality over quantity.

That's a good thing!

Guess what happens when you DVR a show? You skip through the freaking commercials.

Keep bragging about Olby's DVR stats lol. They are probably the most useless viwers.

Bet advertisers love DVR users lol.

LOL at you for thinking DVR users are great for advertisers.

Let me s'plain it to ya'...
Viewers of the O'Reilly Factor don't need to DVR the show.

They watch him "live at 8pm" with rapt attention for the full hour and if they didn't catch a segment the first time, they tune back in at 11pm and 4am for the replays.

This is not theory, it's reality...

Olbermann is DVR material at best, which I for one, may or may not replay until the next day and will fast forward through the commercials and the "special comment" diatribe.

Love the Countdown caption writers though, very clever.

And how many cable companies carry Faux?
Answer: A lot more than carry MSNBC. If the number of cable companies that carried MSNBC equalled the number that carry Faux, O'Lielly would be in the dust. Olbermann would beat the pants off His Loofah-essence-- uh so to speak.

The 25-54 demographic
The number of total viewers doesn't matter in the least, it's the number of viewers in the 25-54 demographic that matter. In that demo, Olbermann has been known to smear Mr. God of the pre-corpse O'Reilly.

What are you liberals yapping about? From what I read MSNBC and Fox both have over 90 million in cable distribution. I think 94 for Fox and 92 for MSNBC.

and oh yea total viewers are worthless but Olby's pretty sizable DVR viewers aren't?

DVR viewers are probably the most useless viewers for advertisers. Who doesn't fast foward through the commercials?

Let's congradulate Olby and his useless DVR viewers! LOL

Well, if it ain't those hybernating hounds...
Welcome back to the wolfpack Crimedog and Franklobo. We missed those gnashing rhetorical fangs, the snarling satirical posts, the threatening thread count.

But one week in a muzzle and our pit bulls have pulled up lame. Instead of running wild and free with the blogger pack, you cower like bad puppies who tinkled off the paper.

The Dog Whisperer has tamed the savage beasts. 7 days on a choke chain and your red meat ramblings resemble nibbled kibble. Good boys, c'mon now... off you go to that new plastic pet cage.

We'll practice "go pee-pee outside" again tomorrow.

newszaroo - a week of reading your posts was almost enough to convince me maybe this isn't such a good idea.

IF thats the case, CNN should be beating FOX and MSNBC since CNN is in more homes than both FNC and MSNBC.

Yeah, like once in 5 years?
