Fox News host Harris Faulkner’s program, “The Faulkner Focus,” took down ABC’s “The View” in average total ratings for the first time ever in the month of January.
“The Faulkner Focus,” which airs during the 11 a.m. time slot, ended the month with an average total of 2.552 million viewers, while “The View” garnered an average of 2.508 million. Fox News remained the most-watched cable news network by garnering 2.7 million total viewers and averaging 1.9 million viewers across the day, according to AdWeek
“I could not grab this big win without my wonderful team,” Faulkner said. “It’s a testament to the hard work and passion we put into bringing Americans the latest news and analysis on what matters most to them. The Faulkner Focus is a place where audiences can tune in and know their questions about the day’s headlines will be answered with respect for all sides and we are proud viewers continue to choose us at 11 a.m.”
Other programs on Fox News, including “America’s Newsroom,” “America Reports” and “Outnumbered,” reached all-time high numbers in the month of January, according to AdWeek. “The Five” remained its top viewed program with an average of 4.76 million total viewers, while “Jesse Watters Primetime” and “Hannity” received 4.12 and 3.76 million total viewers, respectively.
The network received a large number of viewership during President Donald Trump’s inauguration, while its competitors such as CNN and MSNBC witnessed a ratings drop in comparison to previous years.
“The View” has become a staunchly anti-Trump program ever since he rose to political prominence in 2015. The day following the 2024 election, the show scored its highest viewership in a decade by garnering 4.4 million viewers, making it the most-watched episode since Barbara Walters’ farewell episode on May 16, 2014, Variety first reported.
During that episode, the co-hosts spent the first segment lamenting the reelection of Trump. Co-host Sunny Hostin emotionally stated that she was “profoundly disturbed” by Trump’s defeat of former Vice President Kamala Harris and warned that the then-president-elect would seize “almost unfettered power.” Hostin further accused Latino voters of supporting Trump in record numbers due to “misogyny.”
Co-host Whoopi Goldberg warned without evidence that Trump intended to break up interracial marriages and replace the non-white spouse with a white person during an October segment.
good for Faulkner
As someone who doesn’t live in America nor have a TV of any sort, in all honesty, and from your own experience with your “kids” and grandkids etc...... -— Does the younger generation even really bother watching what we call “traditional channels” and shows like this anymore?
i just can’t imagine the average 21yr old, sitting around saying “i cant wait to watch the view tomorrow”
I like Harris. She’s always well prepared, thinks before speaking and is by all appearances, a very nice person, not a bitter shrill b^tch.
The watch their phones mostly...............
Sunny Hostin admitted she is profoundly disturbed.🤪
I won’t argue.
Agreed, and to be honest, I don’t even know what her politics are. That’s how even keeled she is.
No, they don’t.
Harris seems like a really good person.
Whoopi Goldberg warned that Trump intended to break up interracial
marriages and replace the non-white spouse with a white person.
Now that’s hilarious and only an entitled black
moron like Whoppi could have thought that up.
I’m retired and have not watched broadcast TV in years. Neither has my wife.
In the last couple of weeks three butt heads were riffed:
GREAT !!!
the “spew” and madcow/poopygoldbrick/whorestine/bayhair are the most disparaging, demonratcommieblmantifaterrorscumfeminazipedophilegoatrapers ever, disgusting,dung pile of TV PROPAGANDIST PIGS EVER !!!
I like her. She’s got a good head on her shoulders.
Sane Harris vs Insane cackling hens
People twice that age generally do not have “traditional” TV, i.e. a full cable TV channel lineup that they watch.
I love Harris Faulkner! Beautiful and talented sister in Christ. So glad she was the one who beat those mean-spirited battle axes on the View.
And refuse to spend a half hour on the phone screaming "REPRESENTATIVE"!!!!
