Newsmax TV has notched a ratings win over Fox News Channel for the very first time.
The win, fueled by conservative viewers who are disappointed by the election results, happened Monday evening. In the key 25- to 54-year-old demographic prized by advertisers, “Greg Kelly Reports” on Newsmax out-rated “The Story with Martha MacCallum” on Fox.
The margin was narrow — Kelly averaged 229,000 viewers in the demo and MacCallum averaged 203,000 — but it is still a milestone in the cable news industry.
Before the election, Newsmax was not regarded as a formidable competitor to Fox; it was mostly dismissed as one of a handful of wannabe challengers. But President Trump’s loss on November 3 changed the cable TV calculus. Viewers who were frustrated when Fox admitted the truth of Trump’s loss sought other options.

Thanks for the laughs. They are needed. Nice editing.
I like your use of strikethroughs
Poor substitute for the disciplining Stelter is sorely in need of.
That's nearly a 13% margin. Hardly "narrow."
If only Stelter were not so transparent of a liar. But I guess he can’t help it.
CNN can’t help themselves but lie in the article. We aren’t watching other stations due to election disappointment (wouldn’t we have left in 2008 and 2012 when blahma won if that were the truth?). We aren’t watching because of the far left turn they took with things like Chris Wallace behavior at the debate, hiring idiots like Donna Brazile, etc.
Calling Arizona so early as part of the coup attempt killed Fox for me.
Will never watch again - except replays on bootleg websites of Hannity or Tucker. I like them to some extent and don’t want fox to make a dime off of my time.
The donald dot win. Gateway Pundit. Here. OAN. Newsmax. Pretty much all that’s left of the media. The rest is ChiCom controlled.
can any of the geeks on here check to see how foxnews.com has done in it’s page visits since the election.
I havent visited it at all.
Dictionary.com will soon redefine ‘narrow,’ bet. /s
The left is incapable of honesty. It’s not in their DNA.
The very very early call for Virginia also. The decision maker knew the race was being stolen from the start. Turned in my cable tv boxes. Fox is dead to me.
Greg Kelly has a very good show, my favorite on Newsmax. Other favorites: Spicer & Co (mainly due to co-host Lyndsay Keith), Howie Carr, John Bachman, Chris Salcedo, Stinchfield. Blows away Fox News day time.
Can anyone say it simply — What usb stick do I buy to get Newsmax? One nation news? Just to plug into me computer with very large monitor... not to extend to a TV set.

Greg Kelly is FABULOUS!! So is Chris Salcedo and Grant Stinchfield!!
Howie Carr and Grace ROCK also!!
The best difference between Fox and Newsmax, is White House Correspondent Emerald Robinson.
Lyndsay Keith is more than just eye candy. She is a very solid professional and should have her own show.
Her style reminds me a bit of Linda Vester (remember her?). Soft spoken but also not too serious, with just a touch of humor in her presentation.
