CNN topped the other major cable news networks in inauguration coverage of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ swearing in ceremony at the Capitol.
CNN drew 9.07 million viewers, compared to 6.14 million for MSNBC and 2.57 million for Fox News. The figures, from Nielsen and released by Fox News, are from the 11 AM ET to 1 PM ET time frame.
More complete numbers across broadcast and cable networks are expected to be released over the next couple of days.

so- of the 80 million who voted for Chairman Zhao Biden, less than 1/4 watched him get sworn in??? During a pandemic? When many people are unemployed or working from home??
Tell me again the election wasn’t stolen...
Does swearing in to uphold the Constitution even mean anything nowadays?
We see politicians taking an Oath to Uphold the Constitution only to violate it over and over again.
So tell me,
Does it mean something?????
Please disregard my posting regarding covid.
I stopped watching Fox News about a year ago.
Rupert Murdoch isn’t happy. But will he continue to listen to his idiot sons?
Oh well, they need us, not vice versa.

Yup! From their ‘cavalier’ attitude at the outset, it appears they were under the mistaken impression that it was the reverse - we needed them .... and we’d be back. Wrongo! More layoffs, please.
the election wasn’t stolen...
the election was hijacked...
Maybe they can half the airports with CNN and play their headlines on the airplanes formerly belonging to the bankrupted airlines and inside the deserted terminals.
Pretty funny that the autofill in my bing search bar for “Biden speech” is “biden speech neilsen ratings”, yet the search returns are all about how Biden (somehow) topped Trump’s convention speech.
For all the self-flagellation over Trump’s insistence that his inauguration had higher attendance than Obama’s, I’m seeing a serious act of microphallus syndrome in the attempt to show that more people watched Biden’s inaugural than Trump (Ex.: Hill: https://thehill.com/homenews/media/535326-biden-inauguration-tops-trumps-in-tv-ratings) The article notes that these ratings are “subject to change” , LOL
These idiots are beyond pathetic.
I don’t believe a word of what this article says. Horrible thing and I can’t finish it.
It was not an inauguration... it was as a funeral for the United States of America
Biden is nothing... certainly not President. Commander in Thief
I’m thinking nobody here read that article. It was a hit piece on Trump and it said that Biden’s inauguration was the most watched in history despite the Braggadocious former TV host. It said that CNN is now top of the heap in cable news and they got all the viewers well Fox got a few. And then I quit reading
FAUX Sux.
I heard that the old pedophile had the hairs on Chrissy’s leg tingling.
Fox is dying. I love it.
Not yet we didn’t.
Let’s drive their viewership down to zero.
Then we can say :
WE DID IT !!
Hop Sing got 80 million votes but only 20 million idiots tuned in to watch Dubya Cross Bush, Slick Willie and the Kenyan play with the hairs on Hop Sing’s legs? That don’t sound right.
It was not an inauguration... it was as a funeral for the United States of America.
Heh. Up in the NEK....folks w/ trump campaign signs have lowered their flags to half staff.
Didn’t even know Faux News was still in business...
