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.

Maybe they should try more grooming children to be prostitutes’ and be raped by pervert adult democrat party donors. Thats a cultural win in their minds.
One Potato, Two Potato....
It's ratings problem.
Just a slight change of emphasis when you use language to convey truth.
Why do they need an audience? They and the former viewers got what they wanted.
An idiot and incompetent in the White House. Their puppet masters running everything. $6 gas. Using the government to manipulate the rumor so they can live their green fantasy of electric cars and windmills
Great comment!
It’s about time for the firings to begin. The most political employees who are not in a protected class will likely be the first to go since EEOC still applies and Discovery will want to avoid lawsuits if possible. The logical and objective criteria will be to change the format, i.e. if they drop political commentary they no longer need political commenters.
Don’t I Love Lucy reruns from the 50s get higher ratings? Or Loveboat from the 70s? A whole cheaper to put on too.
I thought fox and cnn were the same thing. Both commie propaganda rags.
Wonder who were the woke fools at Warner Brothers who agreed to pay $43 billion for CNN. Zucker is laughing in some well guarded, secure mansion.
It burns me that people cannot see through the hypocrisy and bogus facade of Faux News. They are no better, and in many ways far worse than CNN, etc.
The only news channel I tolerate is Newsmax with the exception of Maria Bartiromo and Varney on Fox Business.
Joke post?
Yeah?
Does CNN have Tucker, Gutfeld, Judge Jeanine, Waters etc etc?
So they can get paid?
No audience, no money.
They and the former viewers got what they wanted.
You mean like a 33% rating for Biden and the Dems losing the 34th district in Texas for the first time in over a 100 years?
See post #17
No, I meant every word.
If Faux News had an ounce of integrity, they would be promoting “2000 Mules” and all such efforts to expose how the 2020 election was stolen. However, since they played an integral part in triggering the theft itself by their irresponsible premature call of Arizona, they care more about covering their tracks and culpability.
Moreover,it enrages me that they hardly mention Trump’s name or provide any coverage of his activities any longer.
Again, if this charlatan news operation had any legitimacy, it ought to repent and immediately begin championing PDJT’s 2024 campaign
Fox News is a million times better than CNN.
They are not even close.
