Obamania Already Getting Tired?
Posted by Dave Blount at January 23, 2009 7:05 AM
Despite the extravagant spending, the media's hyperbolic hype, and the apocalyptic ruin Obamatron hordes made out of DC, the numbers show that people found Reagan's inauguration much more interesting:
Preliminary Nielsen estimates show that 29.2% of U.S. households were watching the presidential inauguration — easily the largest in decades but below the 37.4 household rating for Reagan. Obama's figures include viewership on roughly 15 broadcast and cable networks, while the Reagan ceremony was viewed only on ABC, CBS and NBC … In primetime, Fox's "American Idol" scored the biggest numbers Tuesday, as auds seemed to tire of inaugural coverage.
If the hype was getting too old to compete with tired trash like American Idol even as the Anointed One ascended, wait until the media demands we worship him despite the plunging living standards that will inevitably result from his moonbat policies.
On a tip from The MaryHunter.
