<title>The Only Network to Provide Live Coverage of Speaker Pelosi? It&apos;s Not CNN or MSNBC</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="pelosi_11.7.jpg" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/original/pelosi_11.7.jpg" width="270" align=left vspace=6 hspace=3 />So, we wonder if the White House still thinks Fox News is "<a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/politics/dunn_on_fnc_lets_not_pretend_theyre_a_news_network_139837.asp">not a news network</a>." Tonight, Fox News was the only news channel [other than C-SPAN] to provide live coverage of House Speaker <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Nancy-Pelosi-profile.html">Nancy Pelosi</a></strong> making her way to the house chamber, then speaking to members ahead of tonight's vote on health care reform. CNN stayed with a taped replay of The Situation Room. MSNBC was airing a crime documentary, but mentioned that Pelosi was speaking during a scheduled live cut-in. FNC and MSNBC have teased they'll have coverage of the vote when it happens. CNN returns to live coverage at 7pmET.</p>]]>

<title>&apos;20/20&apos; is #1, Best A18-34 Rating in 3 Years</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="2020_11.7.jpg" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/original/2020_11.7.jpg" width="301" height="170" align=right vsapce=6 hspace=3 />ABC was #1 last in the A18-49 demo thanks in part to the ABC News magazine "20/20."</p>

<p>Last night's show featured several reports on the Ft. Hood massacre as well as <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Diane-Sawyer-profile.html">Diane Sawyer</a></strong>'s interview with <b>Rihanna</b>, speaking for <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/abc/first_big_sweeps_get_diane_sawyers_rihanna_interview_142312.asp">the first time</a> about being attacked by her then-boyfriend, singer <b>Chris Brown</b> last February.</p>

<p>"20/20" won its time period in Total Viewers (8.2M) and A18-49 (2.7 rating/9 share). The <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Elizabeth-Vargas-profile.html">Elizabeth Vargas</a></strong>-hosted show was also Friday's #1 TV show across each of the key demos: A18-34 (2.3/9), A18-49 (2.7/9) and A25-54 (3.1/9).</p>

<p>This was the show's biggest audience in more than 7 months and its best A18-34 rating in almost 3 years -- since Dec. 1, 2006.</p>]]>

<title>Bill O&apos;Reilly Explains Why Viewers Chose FOX for Ft. Hood Coverage: &apos;The Media Guard Has Changed&apos;</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Bill-OReilly-profile.html">Bill O'Reilly</a></strong> called out <em>The New York Times</em>, <em>The Washington Post</em>, <em>Time</em>, <em>Newsweek</em>, and CNN over some of their coverage of the Ft. Hood massacre -- which, in O'Reilly's view, blamed the wars instead of the killer, <b>Nidal Malik Hasan</b>, for the rampage. "The guy is either a Muslim terrorist or a crazy person. That's it. Those are the choices," said O'Reilly of Hasan.</p>

<p>"We did <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/ratings/cable_news_ratings_during_ft_hood_breaking_news_142496.asp">5 million viewers</a> at 8 O'Clock, wiped out CNN and MSNBC, wiped them off the face of the earth. The guard has changed in this country. The media guard has changed. And you know why people came in here, because they knew they were going to get an honest story. They weren't going to get spin that Hasan is some kind of post-traumatic syndrome victim. Some kind of victim of a terrible public policy gone awry. They're not going to get that..... I almost said a bad word. They're not going to get that garbage here." </p>

<p>O'Reilly's guest <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Bernie-Goldberg-profile.html">Bernie Goldberg</a></strong> also gave a new name to the mainstream media:</p>

<title>Cable News Ratings During Ft. Hood Breaking News</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>When <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/generalities/cablers_cover_shooting_at_fort_hood_142373.asp">the news broke</a> around 3:15pmET yesterday of the massacre at Ft. Hood, the 24-hour news networks went in to high gear. A day later, we have the ratings which show where TV viewers went for information.</p>

<p>Between 3pmET and 7pmET, Fox News averaged 2.60M Total Viewers and 627K in A25-54 viewers coming in first of the three cable news networks, and adding viewers with each subsequent hour. CNN averaged 1.33M Total Viewers and 371K in the demo, seeing some drop-off at 6pmET. MSNBC averaged 624K Total Viewers and 196K in the demo, like FOX adding viewers with each hour.</p>

<p>> <b>More</b>: The Fox News dominance of the story was even more profound in primetime, as the network averaged 3.24M Total Viewers between 8pmET and MidnightET, with <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Bill-OReilly-profile.html">Bill O'Reilly</a></strong> drawing 4.995 million Total Viewers at 8pmET (by comparison NBC's "Parks & Recreation" at 8:30 averaged 4.935M). </p>

<p>Fox News beat the combined Total Viewer averages of CNN (1.835M) and MSNBC (955K) from 8pmET-Midnight.</p>]]>
