CNN Suffers Worst Ratings Day in 22 Years for Key Demographic as Major Shakeup Looms

CNN is seeing its ratings continue to tank as the far-left network’s new bosses attempt to save the sinking ship.

The network’s ratings have been dropping across the board but CNN just suffered its lowest viewer numbers with a key demographic group in almost 22 years.

Last week the network had the lowest ratings in the key 25-54 age demographic since July 14th, 2000.

Fox News continued to dominate the ratings in the key demo and with the total number of total viewers.

The conservative network had 221,000 viewers on Friday in the key demo group and 1.56 million average total viewers.

MSNBC came in second place with 83,000 in the demo and 818,000 average total viewers.

CNN came in third place with 303,000 total viewers.

According to Mediaite:

“CNN capped off a weak week in the ratings on Friday, dipping to the network’s lowest Friday in the key 25-54 age demographic since July 14th, 2000.

“CNN brought in a total day average of 60,000 demo viewers, just higher than the network’s 59,000 demo viewers in July 2000.”

Jon Nicosia, President of News Cycle Media, broke many stories about the dysfunction at CNN and he is reporting a major shakeup is imminent.

He says Brian Stelter has “weeks if not days” left at the network.

Nicosia reported:

SOURCE: “Stelter is ‘down to weeks if not days’ left at CNN. They go on ‘He is everything that reminds the new owners of the Zucker era they desperately want to get past.

They continue: “Management is confident Stelter is the one sharing the internal pushback to fellow media reporters while simultaneously stirring discontent within the ranks”

It’s like Jeffrey Dalmer making the argument, “That was a long time ago”.

Don Lemon is equally as bad as Stelte. Both are completely unprofessional. Unload both of them.

The only thing that will improve CNN viewership is if more airports are built. Lol!!

Why is Fox the only network with a bias qualifier attached?

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving network. Can’t wait until the airport contracts expire!

Eh. No it isn’t. All you need is one of the mandolins that can slice potatoes...:)

Gotta be a big one, though!

Lemon, whose a lemon, is also gay and black. Thus CNN won’t can him.

...and the solution is so simple and so obvious.

Here's a hint: Go woke, go broke!

Here's another one: Truth is fascinating. Propaganda is boring.

It may be too late for CNN. Conservatives have tuned out, and leftists will move to MSNBC.

Twitter, NetFlix, and now this. It’s almost as if stealing elections isn’t enough.

Don Lemon does a great job for our side.

We should send emails to CNN, praising him and saying that Lemon deserves a big raise.

Ignored in all the conservative glee in cable news ratings is the simple fact that the broadcast networks ABC, CBS, NBC collectively outweigh them all.

as I always say to mrs llevrok - a “normal” business that was losing money and customers/views month after month, year after year, would look at the business plan of like businesses that are expanding and make some changes to compete.

CNN, on the other hand, keeps singing to the same choir that is pushing them farther and farther down the cliff. And I dont’t mind!

continue with the woke and go broke, or wake up and start actually reporting the news instead of trying to bash Trump and Republicans 24/7 while constantly skewing the news.

Facepalm. No doubt we know which network are conservative. I was taught fiscal responsibility and my father took me to hunt and how to respect the environment’s conservation. I been in drained rice fields to hunt duck, to fishing trips 60 miles offshore. We always left what we found in better shape.
