Poll question: What news story will get Faux Snooze back to better ratings?
http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/ratings/fncs_2554_prime_downward_spiral_20939.asp



"TV Newser cited a CNN press release which gave these totals for Fox's primetime audience in the 25 to 54 age bracket: Oct. 04: 1,074,000; Nov. 04: 891,000; Dec. 04: 568,000; Jan. 05: 564,000; Feb. 05: 520,000; March 05: 498,000; April 05: 445,000.

That amounts to a decline of 58 percent, with no sign of leveling off."

Faux Snooze needs new stories or features to get their ratings back. People are sick of their usual White Hou$e Lapdog and Parrot Show...they need some new stuff. Perhaps one or more of these possibilities might help:

3. Two things!
One Ann Coulter annoucing that she is in fact a man or Ann Coulter finally annoucing her "alternative" lifestyle which proceeds to get her fired, but makes her open partner exceedingly joyous and happy about the whole fucking thing. Or maybe even Hannity coming out and saying, "C'mon, do you really think I believe the shit I say? I can't even stay consistent for Christ's sakes, I mean, that should tip it off that it's a LIE!"

13. I've always had a sneaking suspicion...
that Hannity and Coulter were doing something....those two give off a weird sexual vibe when they're together on TV or radio...

9. The show that would get a lot of attention is one where
a liberal has to under go a political preference make over and brain wash so that they come back to their conservative friends who nominated them as one of the gang.

It would be called "What not to think" like "What not to wear"

12. I voted "Other"
A good impeachment story would drive their ratings through the roof.

The build up to the final act could last for month after delicious month.

If they really reported all the dirt, they'd even get our side to watch.

But truly .... if they just report the unvarnished truth, their ratings would soar.

16. Do you mean the retroactive impeachment of Clinton?
I think if bush ever was impeached, Fox would not mention it once.

22. Battle of the Al Qaeda Stars
sorta like that Battle of the Network Stars.


Pitting terrorists against each other in potato-sack races, obstacle courses and, of course, inflammatory speech-writing contests.

24. After the runaway bride . . .
An exhaustive 360 day Faux News Avert series with full military regalia and anti-terrorism folk songs: Bush debates Bambi Deer's mother on the righteousness of forcing her to give birth to little Bambi for hunters' pleasure, further proving in biblical terms that Bambi's demise was actually an act of compassion since forest habitats have given way to corporate progress. To be followed by an hourly presidential Prayer Watch. Democrats will be allowed to fully participate from holding pens located conveniently for their safety
