Declining Ratings Could Put Judge Andrew Napolitano’s Fox News Future In Jeopardy

[GeorgiaAvenger]

The Judge was on Glenn Beck's radio show today and Beck said something like if there was one person who would like to bring to GBTV it would be the Judge. Maybe Beck is considering hiring The Judge. http://www.glennbeck.com/2011/10/20/fox-news-host-judge-andrew-napolitano-talks-with-glenn/

Didn't Judge fill in for Beck for a while before getting his own show?

Beck is good on some issues that people don't talk about. He is not the worst person out there.

I dont watch much TV, but i did tune in to his show once in a while, wayyy to many liberal guests spouting the usual propaganda, and too many neo-cons posing as 'freedom fighters'. I got tired of it quicky, my head cant handle that shit.

Online is where it's at, Tv's gonna be obsolete.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of VOTERS still watch the TV and get most of their news from it. So, we darn sure shouldn't so glibly toss aside Judge Napolitano and his show. You weren't here in '07/'08 when this show didn't exist. It sucked royally.

 

[LibertyEagle]

Damn, people. We can't let this show go off the air. Don't you see that it is even larger than just this show? It would set a precedent that liberty-leaning shows did not have an audience. See the implications?

Don't let this show die. We will be very sorry.

I heard that too. You know, it's really really sad to listen to someone like beck who will say so much good in a segment like that one, but you know he isn't trustworthy enough to believe.

I knew they'd have the hit on him eventually. He'd be an awesome VP, but there's alternative media opportunities for him. He definitely has a strong internet presence. Judge Nap also has lots of friends, right here.

This is what I'm thinking. He could do something like GB.TV only better.

Aye, Beck has been turning back to status quo again, and Judge Nap's influence may draw him back towards us.

Not that Beck is an ally, he is not, but Nap has a LOT of influence on Beck, and if anybody can keep beck in line it's Nap.

I'd watch it, but I don't get cable or any sort of TV at all.

 

[BlackTerrel]

Bummer. Can't say I ever watch as I don't have time for regularly scheduled shows BUT always enjoyed the tubes that were posted here.

 

[TCE]

I watch it. There have been serious flaws since the get go, but it is Fox, not him. I'm sure he'd like longer interviews but it seems like he's always rushed. His best ones are when he's going toe-to-toe with someone on the other side of the fence: http://www.foxbusiness.com/on-air/freedom-watch/index.html#/v/1227365917001/tea-partiers-vs-tea-o-cons/?playlist_id=158146.
And the blow to Grimm:
http://www.foxbusiness.com/on-air/freedom-watch/index.html#/v/1229651600001/reclaiming-the-tea-party/?playlist_id=158146

However, the point this thread makes is absolute accurate: Freedom is not popular. People love big government.

FBN as a whole has pitiful ratings. Rupert will pull the plug soon.

I DVR Freedom Watch every night but don't always get to watch it. I was afraid that the show may not be doing so well when it was suggested we "Google Santorum"...

How do Nielsen ratings work? FW needs a makeover.

With most of us on boxes that track everything we watch, is that how they figure out ratings? I also DVR Freedom Watch, but does that get counted?

For those w/o Fox Business, you still have 2 options:
1) a rebroadcast comes on Mondays 1 AM eastern on Fox News radio http://radio.foxnews.com/
the show lineup and schedule is the same as Sirius/XM: http://www.siriusxm.com/servlet/Sat...amList&cid=1282009841066&pagename=SXM/Wrapper

2) buy the podcast, linked in my signature

3) watch the clips on Freedom Watch website

Do you have the tube for tonight?

Rupert blocks youtubes, but you can watch the stream on http://usaguns.net/patriots/fw4low.php

they usually post it just before 10 pm EST, and its also picked up on torrents (as is O'reilly but not Hannity or Greta)

FBN is a business network, and Freedom Watch is a political show; it does not fit with the intended audience. FBN should be rebranded as a Libertarian cable network.

Hey guys, is that paid podcast thing audio only? I'd definitely subscribe to it if it's video, especially if it's netflix type quality video. I'd hate to have to download a torrent for each episode.

 

[The Magic Hoof]

By the way, what's the official schedule of freedom watch? Is this like 2-3 times a week, or is this every weekday or something? I think I read it airs at 8PM EST and runs at 11PM EST as a rerun or something.

yes, audio only. Mp3 format has some advantages - listen to it on the go in your car or while you're bicycling or cooking dinner and can't really look at a screen

Frank Luntz must be reviewing the tv ratings.

I haven't seen the show. I have seen napolitano fill in for beck and on fox and friends. i don't see him as somebody who can carry a show by himself.

fox news is missing glenn beck's investigation type material. beck was always exposing political figures, connecting the dots, and creating themes. he also used audiences a lot. this kind of strategy could work for napaolitano.
