CNN’s ratings dropped again in April after the network experienced its worst month in three years.
Prime-time viewership at CNN was 761,000 with 553,000 viewers during the daytime, according to Nielsen Media Research.
CNN’s ratings drop resulted in the lowest number of demographic viewers since August 2015. CNN’s "Cuomo Primetime" with host Chris Cuomo saw its worst demographic viewership numbers since its debut in June 2018.
Fox News dominated the cable news viewership numbers with 2,388,000 viewers, followed by MSNBC with 1,654,000 and CNN. Fox also held the top two cable news programs, with "Tucker Carlson Tonight" garnering 2.8 million viewers and "Hannity" bringing in 3.1 million viewers.

761,000 viewers equals approximately 15,220 viewers per state. I’m tellin’ ya boss, they are NOT making money from the consumers who buy from the advertisers. NOT POSSIBLE!
I can’t believe MSNBC has that many viewers. How did that happen?
They’re being compensated by the government. It’s been going on for years.
Good.
Libs left CNN for MSNBC
They do not care about ratings. They have a mission. They provide biased leads for everyone else. It’s a constant that you will hear a BS fake news story from MSM that begins with “CNN reported today that...”. Then of course there are the CNN splash screens that spread lies to every airport, effective even with no sound.
CNN is an instrument of influence more than a business.
It dominates foreign views of the US for instance, as the standard international source for US news and opinion.
Ultimately it belongs to AT&T, and one must go there to ask why they maintain it, with such an editorial line. It serves someones interests of course, but what these are and who it serves is unclear. We can guess, but we can’t know for sure without someone senior breaking omerta.
Note that several large enterprises own such leftist media entities, or are closely associated with them. In part I think it is a form of protection-money paid to the bureaucratic system. Carlos Slim to the NYT for instance. He does not care about politics at all, other than to keep the rules working his way.
I think they are paid by someone like Soros.
If you add the CNN and MSNBC numbers ... just sayin’
Time to break up AT&T.....again
Soon they’ll be negative numbers. That’s when even the anchors moms won’t watch.
CNN and MSNBC are non-profit propaganda mills.
It’s worse than that. They get paid by their advertisers for the numbers of people they “reach.” So as their viewership declines, so does their ad revenue. Advertisers will go elsewhere to place ads where there are more viewers, like Fox. But have you noticed that Fox has the prescription drug business about sewed up?
I can believe that!
Not really...in fact I'm overjoyed...
CNN sells positive coverage.
Soros money to keep the left’s propaganda arm on the air......
They are propped up only by airports, and mass cable/satellite tv subscriptions. I hate that a few pennies of mine a month fall into their pockets.
Serves these anti-American punks right.
