Fox News Channel dominated last night’s special coverage of President Donald Trump’s launch of his 2020 re-election campaign, drawing nearly five million total viewers and nearly one million in the 25-54 demo, according to Nielsen Media Research.
From 8:15-9:30 PM/ET, FNC ranked number one in both categories, averaging 984,000 in the 25-54 demographic and 4,961,000 viewers, beating CNN and MSNBC combined by triple digits with demo and double digits with total viewers.
CNN cut away from the rally at the eight-minute mark, when the crowd started chanting, “CNN sucks” and the president invoked the “fake news” slur, while Fox News Channel stuck with the speech coverage throughout. Fellow cable news outlet MSNBC snubbed the president completely, sticking with its regularly scheduled programming without interruptions for the speech.....

Trump will be interviewed live on Hannity tonight for anyone who’s interested.
CNN doesn't care. They don't need ratings to make money.
>>>and the president invoked the “fake news” slur<<<
It’s not a “slur” if it’s true.

Thx for the observation.
Clinton News Network is irrelevant, which is worse than sucking.

At some point, the hedge funds and billionaires subsidizing them will have to cut their losses.
I also keep wondering how long the out-of-power globalists in Europe/elsewhere will believe Kerry, zer0, Pelousi and the rest about waiting it out until one of theirs ousts Trump.
All of them can’t help but see the support for Trump and the lack of enthusiasm for the prog candidates. In their own countries, nationalists have won, over and over. They have to know that they, as well as our swampers, will not return to power in the short term. If they dare to attempt a theft of the United States, CWII will make it very expensive.
The tide of history is looking like a tsunami and they are all (along with China, Mexico, Iran, EU) on the wrong side.
Our domestic enemies won’t give up, but they may become extremely isolated. Outside of New Zealand.I can’t even begin to guess where they might eventually go to ground.
Remember, NZ is also seismically active.
Since percentage leads can't exceed double digits, “triple digits” must be referring to the raw number of 4,961,000 viewers.
Does that mean CNN & MSNBC had less than 100,000 combined?
Can they actually hiding such a left-wing media massacre with such obscure language?
“It’s not a “slur” if it’s true.”
A slur can be a true statement, but one intended to insult or humiliate.
Would love to hear from President Trump but Sean won’t SHUT THE HELL UP! What a jerk
Their income is from the fees paid to them by the cable and satellite companies so the cash comes straight from the pockets of the subscribers. It is no skin of the nose of the cable companies, and since they are leftist they will just keep paying CNN.
The huge numbers of people cutting their cable/satellite are mostly doing it for other reasons. It will eventually affect CNN but ratings are of almost no consequence.
Sean sux. A number of Fox talking heads cannot shut the ef up. I just don’t participate in the self manipulation.
#1 in the ratings.
Join you local municipal cable committee and get CNN removed from the basic plan. Nobody is watching it.
“Would love to hear from President Trump but Sean won’t SHUT THE HELL UP! What a jerk”
Sean seems to be on a personal journey that’s meaningful to him, but he doesn’t yet realize his shtick has run its course. Now he’s just boring as hell. I’m even starting to tired of his minions.
I am rural and have never had cable. My closest small town doesn’t have a municipal cable committee, or at least, I’ve never heard of anything like that. There is Frontier, some sort of cable/phone/internet company (maybe Verizon?), satellite companies and a local start up that has used Federal broadband grants to extend fast, affordable internet out into the countryside. I use the local provider.
I use a Roku and the internet. No subscription satellite since 2008. DH has a cell and we have a landline.
Perhaps it is at a county level or managed by some other board but usually the cable service is negotiated by somebody on behalf of everybody in the area. If you research I’ll be you find that to be the case.
Actually, I stand corrected. Sean handle the conversation very well.
