Ratings Collapse: CNN Now Losing To Nick-At-Nite In Prime Time Ratings War
The Federalist ^ | July 6, 2017 | The Federalist Staff

Posted on 07/06/2017 5:17:31 PM PDT by Rockitz

Last week, more Americans tuned in to watch re-runs of “Yogi Bear,” “Full House,” and “Friends” on Nick At Nite than to watch Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon’s shows on CNN.

According to cable ratings from the week of June 26-July 2, CNN’s viewership of its primetime shows was ranked significantly lower than its competitors like Fox News and MSNBC, which place first and second respectively. Clocking in at No. 10 on the list, CNN fell behind HGTV, Nick At Nite, History Channel, and ESPN — the sports network that’s been hemorrhaging viewers for months.

CNN’s ratings nosedive corresponds with the network’s ongoing feud with President Donald Trump. Last week, Trump tweeted out a GIF of himself appearing to pummel a wrestler with CNN’s logo superimposed over the latter’s face. The network has covered the tweet nearly nonstop ever since. It also went after the Redditor who made the GIF and threatened to dox him unless he apologized and promised to never say anything CNN dislikes again — a move that drew much criticism and may have been illegal.

On July 4, CNN published a fake quote from Abraham Lincoln. On Thursday morning, the network falsely claimed German Prime Minister Angela Merkel had chosen the location of the G20 summit to sabotage Trump.

Well, of course. Nick-at-Nite doesn’t make up Fake News.

Well, duh. Even reruns of Yogi Bear bring something new to the table compared to CNN.

It wouldn’t take much for the Hallmark Channel to pass them. That’s a pretty lousy moment when Hallmark is doing better than CNN. You have to wonder about advertising rates and how much money the network is consuming right now.

That’s what happens when you use the full force of your organization to threaten, blackmail and talk down to a private citizen.

All the Keksters are on the case, and they will not rest until CNN is dead.

They really, really, really, really, made a bad move here.

Most people haven’t realized the power that small groups utilizing the internet really have, and what they can accomplish.

CNN is going down, or a crackdown on internet begins(which isn’t going to happen with Trump in charge).

Easy peasy. Install Kodi. Install the Genesis Reborn Addin. Everything is there. Literally everything. Other addins you may want to install: Exodus, Specto Fork, Flixnet and Showbox Arize.

“It may actually be worth it to tune in to watch these fools turn on each other as they attempt to protect their own bloated salaries.”

Only if they engage in to-the-death Thunderdome cagematch elimination bouts between pairs of their “journalists”.

Was it after July 2nd?
