Update on the Fox News Post-Steal weekend ratings collapse.
Going from record ratings before their duplicitous Arizona call, to a catastrophic ratings collapse by Sat-Sun 1/16-1/17.
Here are the current Fox News ratings losses since The Steal according to Nielsen as of Sat-Sun 1/16-1/17:
Kurtz -59%
Neville/Shawn -57%
Guttfield -57%
Fox and Friendless Saturday -52%
Scott -51%
Fox and Friendless Sunday -50%
Cavuto -48%
Jeanine -48%
Watters -47%
Chris Wallace -41%
Bartiromo -41%
Levin -33%
Actually its more common to suffer a ratings collapse after a betrayal of your audience.
Return? Once burned, twice shy. Not gonna happen.
They should have literally dropped off a cliff.
Who in the hell is still watching them...
Ailes must not have read donna brazilles secret notes
I was going to keep tuning in for Tucker but I have been so favorably impressed by Stinchfield and Kelly on Newsmax that I no longer bother with Fox at all.
“Isn’t it normal for ratings to decline immediately after an election?”
Decline to the point that 89-year old Grandpa Murdoch has to come out of retirement to take names, kick butt and fire some folks?
I don’t think so...
Perhaps you can suggest a better baseline.
The current approach provides a week to week and a month to month comparison since the election, but a time history of the data marcusmaximus has provided would be needed. There has been some ups and downs, but it hasn’t changed much.
If you do a search on duckduckgo, you can find out how Fox has fared when compared to the other networks since the election. Fox has dropped considerably.
Fox being dumped by conservatives is real and deserved. When an organization has problems, you need to go to the top and make changes there because those individuals are the source. Juggling the lineup is not a solution.
Chris Wallace -41%.
Is there such a thing as less 41% of 0?
Kinda hard, unless he read them two years before she joined Fox News. (He died May 2017; she joined Fox News March 2019.)
That toad Cavuto has been damn near orgasmic throughout the entire inauguration coverage. What a turd!!
I won’t be posting as much. Will still be here, reading. Maybe our “betters” will leave us alone. Maybe they won’t.
There are very few good things to come out of this disaster, but being shown the treachery of Fox News is a good thing.
Why would somebody want to see Tucker Carlson grin and tell you how the Democrats plotted to destroy America all day? While interviewing gutless GOP traitors on parade?
“We did it.” Yes you did.
Fox moving leftwards is now in its tenth year. A bit too late to bring it back.
I continue to say this needs to be plotted on a graph.
The numbers in isolation do not tell us the trend.
Are they continuing to decline? have the losses stabilized? are they recovering viewers?
Yea!!!!!
Where’s that meme where we now all throw our heads back and laugh? They’re swirling around the shitter bowel about to be gone.
I like them both, but don’t want to give ratings since it will support the Cavutos, Juan Williams and Brazilles. The nighttime line up keeps the daytime afloat. .
Ha-Ha! I Love It! Couldn't happen to a better (worse) bunch! ... and I helped! (by dropping Fox on Election Night!) ... "Remember Arizona!" ...
Go, OAN!
Go, Newsmax!
The weeks coming up will be interesting. Given the new administration, ratings of all fake news shows should go up.
These “ratings” are put out on this thread every week. All these shows would be down to about 6 viewers apiece if the rating losses were cumulative.
The more I see these “-50’s” I am wondering why they are not yet at “-500,000!”
I watch some of Tucker depending on what’s happening on Stinchfield at the time...
