CNN suffers smallest weekday audience since Obama regime, gets pounded by Fox News once again
Crankers ^ | 6-18-2022 | John Smith

CNN had its lowest weekly audience since the Obama administration on June 14 as its rating problems continue to plague the distressed network. After being purchased by Warner Bros. Discovery early this year in a $43 billion deal, CNN averaged just about 393,000 total viewers on June 14. The network additionally experienced its least viewed weekday, excluding Thanksgiving, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. when the daytime programming on CNN managed only to attract an average of 489,000 viewers. This was the worst performance for CNN in this category since November 3, 2015.

CNN has developed a history of relying on its critical coverage of former President Donald Trump to appeal to liberal viewers under previous boss Jeff Zucker. The bleak turnout on June 14 occurred a day after the Jan. 6 committee focused on Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election results through litigation. CNN was down 43% of the estimated 694,000 total viewers who tuned in on June 13 while there was no hearing the next day.

A sane person recognizes the dangers off false truth, so, no, a sane person does not accept Fox is better than CNN

Actually sane people KNOW Fox News is infinitely better than CNN.
That's why even more Dems watch Tucker than any program on CNN.
Some Dem voters are not as stupid as you think they are.
Texas 34th, where the Dems just got clobbered after holdingbthe seat for over a 100 years, proves that.

massive illegal immigration is not doing them any good is it

That shows just how short sighted you are. The alert doesn’t think about next year. They’re planning on 2024 and 2026 and beyond.

You worry about tomorrow. The Democrats will worry about next week, next month and next year. My point…..you worry about what’s right in front of your face. The Dems play the long con. Something they’ve mastered.

I KNOW for a fact that President Trump not only built the border wall, he sharply REDUCED illegal immigration. Those are FACTS.

You must have missed all the tough new anti ballot fraud laws passed in red/purple states including Texas, where the entire Dem state congressmen fled to DC to prevent the laws from passing

What did the law do? Did it ban Mail In Voting and Drop Boxes? They will cheat again and again and th courts will side with them. To think otherwise is naive.

When you mention the “tough new anti ballot fraud laws”, are you including Georgia in that? That new law doesn’t do a whole lot of anything. In fact, two things it did do was codify, Mail In Voting and Drop Boxes. So in fact, it helped the Left in Georgia.

So far, the Latinos who make up the bulk of illegal immigration, are moving EN MASS to the Republican Party.
Dementia Joe thought he was going to destroy the Republicans by opening the borders to illegals, only for the Latinos to turn on him.
Chuckle.
You seem to forget that all humans want a comfortable, safe life.
No one likes high Inflation, high food prices, record high gas prices, record high energy bills, record high murder/crime rates etc etc. The fact that someone is Latino doesn't mean they want to be murdered.
Can you understand that?

Yes……President Trump did.

WITH NO HELP FROM ANYONE

Good Lord you are a moron. Congress didn’t life a finger to help him.

Other than a tax cut, Republicans in Congress obstructed him at every turn.

You’re obviously one of those that still believes them when they say they’ll get stuff done next time.

I'll just repost my poet #28:

“You totally forgot to mention the clobbering the Dems took in Virginia last year and lots of other losses for the Dems in previously Dem controlled cities/counties in Texas last year.
Chuckle.”

President Trump did most of the work, yes.
But he did get some help from the Republican congress too.
Of course there was no help from congress in his last 2 years when Pelosi took over The House.

Is that why the Dems got clobbered in Virginia last year and continue to lose in previously Dem controlled districts/counties/cities in Texas?

You are trying to reason with silly, shallow complainers who offer nothing but gripes and division. Fox is not perfect but it is a fact that without them we would not know the real truth about the Covid scam, the 2020 riots, crime in our cities, the Biden crime family, the Afghanistan debacle, the Russia hoax, Pelosi, Schumer and the democrats’ corruptions, the destruction of the U.S. economy, suspension of civil rights for the Jan 6 trespassers, illegal attacks on conservative Supreme Court justices and on and on.....

That CNN hasn’t been horrid isn’t in question.... what the speculation should be all about is where they will be a year or two from now as the changes that Malone looks like he is putting in place start taking effect. I hope they get to the point at least where Tucker, Maria and Varney aren’t the only reason to turn on the tv....

Fox News fetes children who say they are in the wrong body. They support their castration via chemicals and surgeries.

And Fox News is still infinitely better than CNN or MSNBC.
Why are you even arguing about that?

Corps who insist children are born in the wrong body and need lifelong medicalization are still bad, even though some may be worse.

Tucker Carlson is not bad. He is great. So is Judge Jeanine. So is Greg Gutfeld etc etc.
There is not EVEN A SINGLE ANCHOR at CNN or MSNBC who is normal.
