Unsurprisingly, Fox News ratings suffered Monday night without the channel’s most watched host.
After the surprise of Fox News and Tucker Carlson “agree[ing] to part ways” on Monday, the network’s 8 p.m. hour had a significantly smaller audience Monday night. The debut of Fox News Tonight, hosted by Brian Kilmeade (the first in a series of rotating hosts), pulled in just under 2.6 million viewers — about 21 percent below the average for Tucker Carlson Tonight (3.3 million viewers) over the past eight Mondays.
Fox News Tonight also took a hit in the key news demographic of adults 25-54: Its 0.24 rating was 37 percent lower than the 0.38 Carlson averaged over the prior eight Monday shows.

On the other hand, Newsmax — which was openly making a play for Fox News viewers in the wake of Carlson’s exit Monday — saw its audience jump in primetime. Eric Bolling the Balance (531,000 viewers) at 8 p.m. and Greg Kelly Reports (540,000) at 9 p.m. both had more than triple their average audience from the first quarter of the year (145,000 for Bolling and 141,000 for Kelly).

fox news
What company will make the next bonehead move?
I believe a bunch of people tuned in last night see if anything would be said about Tucker. Also to see what Fox was up to.
If viewership going forward does not drop a lot more than this then the poupulous is truly hopeless.
How do they know what channel I’m watching? Are they monitoring my tv?
The only show I would watch was Tucker, Fox can go to hell.
Bed Bath & Beyond is BANKRUPT!
satellite dish
Most of human kind is already truly hopeless and it has been that way since the beginning of time. They are called useful idiots for a reason.
If you are on cable then they are monitoring what you are watching. This is the digital age. Those cable boxes are bi-directional.
Or gullible sheep.
not cable - satellite
Dish and DirecTV know what you’re watching if you’re hooked up to one of their boxes.
True. I haven’t been following that story. What did they do? I think they were one of the anti-My Pillow companies (if I recall)
They don’t care, they’ve made it quite clear they only want to cater to GOPe (Rs) that vote for BIG govt fascism. They’ll soon be campaigning for anyone but Trump because they don’t want to be any part of the MAGA movement. Lachlin Murdoch can kiss my shiny white ass.
Hock-Spit!
Not fair! And it wasn’t me that watched Girls gone extremely wild last summer. it was my cousin. And he rented a naughty movie, the dog.
Unless you do internet through the dish as well then I don’t believe they can tell what you are watching. I think a lot of theie numbers come from Nelson ratings.
Yes, they know what we watch.
Watch what the Wall Street Journal is doing.
Rupert Murdoch’s game plan for “The Steal: Part Deux” has been activated and it’s been on full display at the Wall Street Journal (which Murdoch owns) for the past few months.
LOL!
