O’Reilly Says He Had “Perhaps The Biggest Margin Of Victory Ever On Cable News”

By Brian on July 26, 2006 1:49 PM

Bill O’Reilly took some time out from Tuesday’s Factor to talk about cable news ratings in his Most Ridiculous Item of the Day:

 As mentioned earlier, FOX News is dominating the ratings in covering the crisis in the Mideast.

Last Thursday, a heavily watched night, FOX News hammered its cable competition. Greta, “Hannity & Colmes,” Shepard all won their time slots by a wide margin. In fact, FOX prime time more than doubled its closest competitor, CNN.

As for “The Factor,” at 8 p.m., we beat all our cable news competition combined with 700,000 viewers leftover, perhaps the biggest margin of victory ever on cable news.

Overall, CNN second, Headline News third, and MSNBC dead last. Ridiculous? Only to those who don’t like us.

By the way, we appreciate all you guys watching us. We really do. Thank you.
