CNN, rocked by a fake news scandal and accusations of blackmail, is taking a significant hit in its primetime ratings, losing not only to Fox News and MSNBC, but also to FX, TLC, The Discovery Channel — and even children’s TV network Nick-at-Nite.

The network was hit last month by an embarrassing fake news scandal in which it was forced to retract an article on alleged ties between a Russian investment fund and members of Trump’s campaign team. Three employees resigned in relation to the scandal.

But it has also been dogged by tapes suggesting that some of its employees believe the Russia-Trump controversy is “bullshit,” and just this week the network was widely condemned for having gone after the alleged creator of an anti-CNN meme that President Trump later tweeted. The hashtag #CNNBlackmail quickly went viral online.

At TMZ last week they had a poll...do you trust Cnn? 56% said no. 36k people voted.

Who do I trust?

TRUMP.

CNN’s natural competition should be Benny Hinn and Mike Murdock.

Of course they’d still lose, as Benny and Mike are both more believable.

CNN, rocked by a fake news scandal and accusations of blackmail, is taking a significant hit in its primetime ratings...AWWWWWWWWWWW- wait a minute !! where is my fainting couch? At least get my crying towel......nope no tears for them

Before Trump ever sat his behind down in the oval office chair, CNN has been pedal-to-da-metal with trashing him.

I think even the lefties are vetting tired... or maybe even just desensitized to it, which is good for Donald.

I believe Pee Wee Herman before I believe anyone on Fraud News Network.

Hey Zucker, how does it feel to be at the Helm of a network as it augers in and blows up?

In addition to the scandals, how many people might just be sick and tired of the 24/7 Trump-bashing?

[HarleyLady27]

ROFL!!! I love it when a plan comes together!!! Go President Trump!!!

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

People are figuring out what we knew for 25 years: CNN sucks.

...Benny Hinn

Now I got Yakety Sax playing in my head!

Apple has dropped CNN’s I-Phone app down to one star in response to their scandal-driven tailspin. I’m really starting to wonder if they’ll survive.

[Sans-Culotte]

It can’t be due to merely bashing Trump if MSNBC is beating them.

[shibumi]

Benny Hinn -

Benny Hill -

I get them confused a lot too.

Judging from the pictures I found on the net, my guess is that he was probably hitting on a white woman, which doesn’t go over so well in other places.

The days are numbered for all cable news. Young people today watch YouTube. Probably more Americans under 30 would recognize Ana Kasparian and Gavin McInnes before Wolf Blitzer or Sean Hannity.

children’s TV network Nick-at-Nite

Nick-at-Nite is not a children's network.
