Fox News’ year-over-year losses were sharper. The network shed -39% of its average total audience, -44% in the prime time demo, 39% in total day viewers and -44% in the total day demo. Now, to be fair, Fox News set cable news records in Q2 2020. Tucker Carlson Tonight averaged more than 4.3 million total viewers per original broadcast, a quarterly record for a cable news show, and the network as a whole averaged 3.57 million viewers in prime time and 1.96 million in total day – also cable news records for quarterly viewership.

So, a steep decline in Q2 2021 was expected.

They never learn.

Is Fox News still a thing?

[patriot torch]

Fox is still on air? Well I’ll be darned. I deep six’ed them November 3’rd.

Stew Peters for me. I have Rumble on my Roku, and I watch all his episodes. He's the only one that is actually interviewing nurses about the dangers of the jab. Sometimes I watch clips of OANN or Newsmax when I have time.

[robel]

That would qualify them for a share of the government bailout.

They are on cable. Ratings don’t matter, they get paid by the cable providers to be on their cable lineup. It’s how CNN and MSNBS survive. Fox knows two things: it doesn’t need ratings and it serves the interests of the powers that be to have a whipping boy network that they can use as a surrogate for conservatives and to pacify actual conservatives into thinking that there is some media that agrees with them. It’s all part of the uniparty / mainstream media kabuki dance.

If I were a betting man, I’d bet that a significant portion of their income did NOT come from advertisers. someone is giving Fox big money to go along with the program.

[KarlInOhio]

And how much did CNN and MSNBC drop?

[tatown]

I’m betting that you are correct.

[Luke21]

Most of us hate their guts, but this is some welcome good news.

[Leaning Right]

And what’s the deal with Karl Rove? I can’t imagine a single person, liberal or conservative, who would want to hear what he has to say. Yet Rove keeps appearing on Fox.

Any channel that would feature such a man has lost my support.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Spam in a Can.

[WASCWatch]

I will continue to watch Tucker Carlson during the week, Maria Bartoromo on Sunday mornings, and Mark Levin on Sunday nights.

[lasereye]

Rove is not a Trump type Republican but he isn’t a Never Trumper either.

[blackdog]

That's what the $28 billion congress wants for supporting the media (I kid you not) is meant to cover.

If We're going to read your propaganda every day and lose viewers we expect payment for services. It's that or topless hosts to draw viewers and that would mean contract disputes with some of the ladies and or gender dysphoria afflicted men like Shep Smith.

[MercyFlush]

Yup. We cancelled DISH Network back in February and our FOX viewing ended at the same time. My viewing is now over the air, Rumble, OAN, and Newsmax.

[JaguarXKE]

I have not watched a Fox show since election night. I occassionally watch a YouTube video of something specific, but that network has not been seen on our TV since Nov 2020.

Well -- and quite accurately -- put.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Rove and Flimsey Grahamanesty are Hannity’s favorite guests.

[Fledermaus]

Or Linda Grahmnesty
