| The Fox News Channel showed its muscle to finish out the 2012 election cycle. For the month of November, the cable news channel topped its competition, with its daytime programming having record months. According to data from Nielsen Media Research, all three major cable news channels were up significantly from this time a year ago.

Until more of the American people stop watching ABC, NBC and CBS and stop reading their local newspapers we will not be able to recover as a nation. The bulk of the population simply are unaware of what is going on due to the continued cover-up and omissions by the media. Was at my quilting group yesterday at church. One liberal member mentioned how she thought it outrageous the way our veterans are treated. She specifically mentioned Congress. Clearly she had heard nothing about Obama proposing drastic cuts to benefits for them. I mentioned how sad it was that Obama´s nominee for either State and/or Defense had testified before Congress that Viet Nam veterans cut off ears and noses and raped civilians and how he threw what he claimed were his medals over the fence at the Capital. My fellow quilter looked perplexed. She then asked if I was referring to Senator Kerry. I said yes. She then said nothing more. She loves Elizabeth Warren BTW and we live in Virginia.

I think we can compete with the alphabet watchers. Could it be that the people who are totally devoid of and seemingly unable to comprehend political information are the ones who beat us at the polls?

So, more people than ever are watching Fox. And we still lost.
What does this mean? Time for some serious soul searching. Perhaps our message is too much anti-liberal and not enough about solving real problems.
Darrell Issa demands documents from Eric holder - because it´s his job - and Obama voters don´t give a rip snort! Sean Hannity should have been interviewing the Mexican families of those people whose loved ones were killed by the guns that Eric Holder sent to Mexico. Put a face on this tragedy. Michael Moore would have done as much and UniVision would not have ignored this!
Let´s face reality here. We care about the people who voted for Obama, but they don´t know this. Mitt Romney would have made their lives better. But they don´t understand how! We need to change our message. We have to live with these people and Fox winning the ratings war isn´t accomplishing a goll darn thing for any of us.

# 3, I completely agree with you. There have been so many years of what I call "confrontational programming" @ the Fox News Cable. Most times their programming is similar, if not identical to the "View".
The fact that they´re # 1 does not mean their viewership is anymore informed. Just stroked like their viewers are pet poodles.
Well no more! FNC,if there were curious leaders over there, would be covering the US Senate and reporting what Reid is contemplating,what mccain,Graham are pontificating about,how the abolition of the fillibuster is pending,how the Senate will become like the House,depriving some Senators of equal representation for their smaller States.
Decimating our military? FNC needs to consider the Citizens who chance to tune in,instead of making their shows like Dancing with the Stars.

IMHO, It seems to me, that some who presume to speak about what is going on at FNC do not. Too much "Anti-Liberal" talk? Seriously? I guess that would depend on what some think of the drumbeat of "Anti-Conservative" networks which flood the airwaves 24/7. If they actually watched FNC, rather than taking cheap shots at the only network that even tries to balance out the rest of them, they would know that discussions about what is going on with Congress and with obama are going on most of the time. THAT is why FNC stays #1.

Our side loses because they do not know how to throw bricks when the d`Rats are throwing mud. We have truth and facts on our side, but sorry presenters to get the MSG across, they act like they don`t know how to talk to the people...or how to explain anything! The main reason that the left wins elections (besides stealing them)is they use languish that "most" ignorant, low class, criminals and UnAmerican people can understand. This is it in a nut shell: We Rats will GIVE you FREE things and the Republicans will take away your free things and stop you from getting (anything). As far as FN I don`t watch anymore, can`t stand to see the faces of the evil left .

One day in early February, I met Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin for breakfast at the Gramercy Park Hotel, one of their regular joints, just a few blocks from their apartment on Park Avenue South. The first thing Weiner said when I sat down was that their 13-month-old son, Jordan, had just moments ago taken his first step. They were both giddy, kvelling with baby-pride, especially Weiner, who, with all his free time, has become his son’s primary caretaker. This is what life is like now for the man whose

It seems very odd that President Obama has made gun control the signature issue of his second term, so far. He can’t possibly achieve any significant legislation; a few tweaks to the background check system, maybe, but there is no chance of getting any meaningful gun control through the House. The House Democrats aren’t even trying. So it also seems strange that all eyes are on the Senate, where Harry Reid will unveil some sort of gun legislation–no one knows what, exactly–on Thursday. The party’s left-wing base is lining up behind the bill, sight unseen.

West Virginia Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller, one of the towering architects of Obamacare, on Tuesday openly criticized program managers for not moving quickly enough to build the system, warning that if it gets off to a bumpy start it will just get worse. Decrying the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as way too complex, he warned the acting Medicare director that Obamacare is "so complicated and if it isn´t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse."

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md.--The Navy´s top officer unveiled new technology Monday that allows ships to shoot down drones or other vehicles for about the cost of a pack of gum. The USS Dewey tested an onboard laser weapons system in July 2012, in which it successfully shot down a test drone. Navy Adm. Jonathan Greenert, the chief of Naval Operations, screened video of the event while speaking at the Sea-Air-Space expo. The Laser Weapon System or LaWS only costs roughly $1 per shot and could be employed against fast attack ships or even be used in the future for missile defense.

A New York judge yesterday blasted federal “sequestration” cuts, calling it “stunning” that they could force him to delay the start of a terrorism trial for Osama bin Laden’s son-in-law. Manhattan federal Judge Lewis Kaplan appeared flabbergasted when a defense lawyer for Sulaiman Abu Ghaith said mandatory work furloughs would make it “very difficult to be ready” for trial by September. Kaplan began calling the situation “ironic” before noting that was “not exactly the right word.” “It’s extremely troublesome to contemplate the possibility of a case of this nature being delayed by sequestration,” Kaplan said.

Over the weekend, the Saddleback Valley Community Church announced the sad news that Pastor Rick Warren‘s youngest son, Matthew, committed suicide at the age of 27, after a long struggle with mental illness. On Monday, Megyn Kelly‘s panel took on some of the “despicable” reaction that followed — questioning why the pastor isn’t afforded basic compassion by some of his critics. Noting the “shocking” and “disgusting” vitriol directed at the pastor following the news, Kelly declined to “give a voice to the haters.” Father Jonathan Morris, a Fox News contributor, agreed, deeming the attacks “ridiculous,” “tasteless,” and simply “very sad.”

Bernard Anderson, a pathbreaking African-American economist, understands the importance of rhetoric. He was up front at the Lincoln Memorial when Martin Luther King Jr. gave his historic “I Have a Dream” speech in 1963. And he was in the audience on the Howard University campus in 1965 to hear President Johnson deliver a grim view of the state of black America and declare war on “past injustice and present prejudice.” So Anderson had high hopes as he sat at home in Pennsylvania watching President Obama deliver his second Inaugural Address this year.

President Obama’s legacy may be in the uncertain grip of a conservative senator from Pennsylvania, a former president of the tax-cutting Club for Growth who received high marks from the National Rifle Association. On guns and deficit reduction, two cornerstones of the Obama agenda, Sen. Pat Toomey may hold the key to compromise. Budget: House Republicans privately concede they are willing to raise revenue beyond the $600 billion tax hike approved last year, if Democrats agree to trim Social Security and Medicare benefits.

The case of a same-sex Connecticut couple accused of repeatedly raping and abusing two of their nine adopted boys is headed for trial. Married couple George Harasz and Douglas Wirth of Glastonbury were supposed to be sentenced Friday in Hartford Superior Court under a plea deal, but instead withdrew from their agreement with prosecutors. The men had already pleaded no contest in January to one felony count each of risk of injury to a minor — a reduction from even more serious charges related to sexual assault....

Yup, I am about to say something about the Great Barack Obama Identity/Eligibility Scandal again.

Their husbands died at the World Trade Center in the Sept. 11 attack. This week, a new effort to find remains from the site uncovered 39 pieces of what appeared to be human bones. That was the yield from the first three days of work in a process that is expected to go on for at least two months.

Obama´s gun control proposals have run into resistance on Capitol Hill, leaving their fate in doubt. Efforts by Senate Democrats to reach compromise with Republicans over expanding required federal background checks have yet to yield an agreement, and conservatives were promising to try

Beginning a week of high pressure on gun control, the White House on Monday accused some Republican senators of cowardice for planning to filibuster gun legislation without allowing the full Senate to vote on President Obama’s initiatives. “If they oppose this legislation, have the courage to say so on the floor and vote no,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “Don’t block it. Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

"There was some hope that once the Supreme Court ruled in July, and then once an election occurred there would be a sense that, ´This is the law of the land, let´s get on board, let´s make this work.´"

Myron Ullman, Johnson´s predecessor at JCPenney, takes office as CEO. When Johnson was initially wooed by JCPenney, it was to serve as CEO with Ullman as Chairman. In January 2012, Ullman was unceremoniously removed from the board. Gone with Ullman was any control the Board of Directors had over Ron Johnson and his control of JCPenney resources.
