    Talking Dick Morris fired by Fox News

    http://www.examiner.com/article/dick...ed-by-fox-news

    According to*Yahoo’s television reporting, controversial political commentator*Dick Morris*has lost his political analyst’s job at the Fox News Channel. Things haven’t looked good for Morris since the commentator erroneously and stubbornly predicted a huge landslide victory for former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney – right up to the last minute as votes were being counted on Nov. 6, 2012. Morris’ appearances on Fox since President Barack Obama defeated Mitt Romney have been gone from few and far between to virtually non-existent.

    Lmao. Looks like he is going to the evil CNN

    Come on Fox, Dick Morris was hilarious. If you have to pound people with bad commentary instead of engaging in news, at least make the presentation hilarious. Krauthammer makes me want to take a nap.

    It looks like Hannity lost half of his audience because he was stubborn.

    On Monday,*Nielsen*– the company that gathers and releases data regarding*television-viewers’ viewing habits – released their latest figures for the fourth-quarter of 2012, and the big news from the latest ratings’ data were regarding*Sean Hannity’s television program. According to the*New York Daily News, Nielsen indicates that Sean Hannity’s Fox television program lost approximately half of its audience following President Barack Obama’s Nov. 6 victory over GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney.Dick Morris fired by FoxThe reason for Hannity’s decline in popularity is being blamed on Hannity’s failed punditry in analyzing voter trends before the election. While others in the business may have also incorrectly predicted that Romney would defeat Obama, Sean Hannity is said to have been vehement in expressing his opinion with welcomed guests on his show - guests who were also extremely strong-willed and strong-voiced in stating that Romney would win the election. Hannity paired up with the likes of Dick Morris, Ann Coulter, and Karl Rove frequently on his program to spew their now-known-to-be-wrong opinions on how the American voters would vote.

    Chris Matthews, Ed Shultz and Lawrence O'Donnell wouldn't have a job if not for MSNBC.

    One or more of those guys would probably have a job doing something like what they're doing now. There's a market for it. It probably just wouldn't be on a cable news network.

    Ooooooh boooooooys! Seems we have a clear winner. And I don't see MSNBC listed anywhere!

    FOX News was again the number one basic cable channel in both Primetime (1.78 million) and Total Day (3.54 million)among Total Viewers for the week of November 5, beating ESPN and USA. This is the fourth straight week that FNC has been the number one basic cable channel among Total Viewers. FNC was also the number two cable network among Adults 25-54 (1.03 million Total Day, 496,000 primetime), beating every channel but ESPN.

    Ranking cable news networks is like ranking war criminals.

    You got a link or memo Start a thread about it. Try staying on topic. Like Sarah Palin, what tv station is she on.

    He should have been fired a long time ago. He deliberately lied in the vain notion that he could bolster Romney's chances by deliberately misleading on what he Knew was going to be a big defeat.

    I know I believed him. I hope he never works again.

    If that's a reason to fire someone then half the crew of MSNBC should have been fired as well.

    Budget issues. MSNBC would have to pay more to get quality commentators.

    If you're going to reprimand somebody about staying on topic why don't you practice the same. This thread is not about Sarah Palin, it's about Dick Morris.

    In a way, I'm sorry to see him go. I thought he presented some good arguments at times.

    "I guarantee you, Sean, based on what I've heard from third parties or I've spoken to, that William Jefferson Clinton is going to cast his ballot for Mitt Romney."
