Fox News dominates July ratings as CNN continues to struggle

Fox News Channel finished July as the most-watched network across all of basic cable as liberal CNN fell to new lows in key categories.

Americans flocked to Fox News during a busy month that included coverage of tragic Miami building collapse, Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos launching into space and ongoing coverage of the coronavirus pandemic. Fox News averaged 1.2 million viewers to finish as the No. 1 basic cable network among total day viewers, followed by MSNBC and HGTV.

The twenty-five people that listen to CNN should have a conference call every day.

I guess FOX News did not want to mention OANN and Newsmax TV because they are competitors.

President Trump is still going on a FOX News program. I don't see him on CNN.

And, combine Fox News, Newsmax, OAN and they'd draw more than MSNBC and CNN.

I’d like to see those numbers - Fox News, Newsmax, OAN vs CNN MSNBC NBC ABC CBS PBS. Total viewership

Myself, I don’t watch any ‘news’ shows. When I see those numbers of total viewership, I’m underwhelmed. 3.1mm for Tucker? Who cares

If CNN didn't have airports they would cease to exist...It's time for FOXNews to bid for Airport coverage...

And FoxNews Hannnity, Tucker, Laura ...

FIRE THE FOXNEWS AD DEPARTMENT. THOSE 'WE GET A CUT ADS' ARE DRIVING AWAY BETTER COMPANIES. It's starting to look like a set up with some of the ads being snake-oil.... YOU do NOT want to be tied to that... everyone must pay for ad time... NO swap outs...

<FIRE THE FOXNEWS AD DEPARTMENT. NOW..

As much as many FReepers condemn Fox News, I think the fact that their ratings are holding strong at least gives us a scintilla of a chance for some undecideds out there, to be open to hearing our point of view on some of the issues.

The problem is Fox is controlled opposition.

I agree. No means is FOX perfect. But it provides a lot of news that the other networks refuse to cover or they distort. It is important to win over the undecideds.

Fox News sold us out on election night. I will never watch them again. And, I was a daily viewer from the time they went on the air.

That was reportedly the bad decision of a single man.
We need FOX News if we want Trump to win the White House in 2024.
Especially with the Twitter ban and possibly Facebook still too.
This is my message to all FRee Republic.

I haven’t watched FNC since October 2020 and haven’t missed their T&A show and their liberal news division and oh so ethical personalities like Cavuto, Brazil, the FNC weekend female commie babes, Wallace and Whoraldo one bit.

I was a loyal viewer from 1997 until last year. They lost my trust and respect and have shown no inclination to get it back. I was a lifelong major league baseball fan, watched all the time. In 1994, they went on strike at the seasons end, I declared a pox on the owners and players houses and haven’t watched an inning since of any game. Same with the Miami Dolphins, I was a fan since the late 60’s. They took a knee with the rest of the hate America NFL so not one snap have I watched since the first knee on the ground. Yes I can hold a grudge, once you cross a certain line I will forgive you but keep you at arms length.

If I want news I watch local news for local news and OAN or Newsmax for national news. FNC died at our home for good, they drew first blood.

I cancelled Faux News. So sick of their anti Trumpism and the firing of Lou Dobbs.

You may be right but, fool me once shame on you, I don’t give second chances.

When Fox hired Donna Brazille I could read the tea leaves. Many of the good Fox people are on Newsmax now. I would rather watch them there.

Their firing of Lou Dobbs at FBN was the last straw for me. Hiring Brazille didn’t help. But their fake polls are just exhausting.

LOL. It’s game over. Democrats will win in 2024 and will win EVERY SINGLE contested seat in the 2022 mid terms. They control the electoral system.
