In the latest TV ratings, ABC led the primetime Thursday coverage of the House Select Committee on January 6th’s first public hearing.
ABC’s two-hour coverage averaged 4.9 million total viewers, TVLine has learned. Of the other broadcast networks, NBC tallied 3.6 million viewers, while CBS drew 3.4 million. (Fox aired MasterChef Junior and Don’t Forget the Lyrics reruns; The CW’s regularly scheduled drama programming is detailed below.) Amongst cable news networks, MSNBC led the pack with 4.2 million total viewers, followed by CNN’s 2.6 million viewers. Fox News, which didn’t cover the hearing itself, averaged nearly 3 million viewers during the two-hour block. Fox Business (to which Fox News anchors’ actual news coverage was relegated) drew 223,000, while CNBC averaged 160K.
ABC also commanded the largest share of Adults 18-34 and 25-54, while CNN easily led all cablers in those measures.

everyone just needs to stop watching, it’s that simple.
it only encourages them
US population 332,000,000
Note the deception: They weren’t number in their time slot. They beat the other idiots were showing it.
LOL is that it..so basically your typical commie morons watched, the rest of us with actual LIVES had better things to do
edit: “They weren’t number one in their time slot...they just beat the other idiots showing it...”
There is zero interest in this except by the far left political class and those who have drank their kool aid.
Nice trick there, notice MSNBC & CNN numbers are total viewers, while Fox's numbers are "average number of viewers"
Total counts people who tuned it for 10 minutes and shut off while average would filter them out.
Bastards
I wish they would have seized the guv
So Disney thinks this is good for them…
You were in ahead of me, showing your high intelligence as usual. Dem: "Don't coach me, I got a C in non-discriminatory New Math in public school. So 3-4 million means almost everybody, right?"
Once in the 1950s the major department stores closed while I Love Lucy was on as they were quiet and empty that night. Sign: "We give up. We love Lucy, too. Closed."
And for the first Nixon-Kennedy debate, 100 million watched or listened on radio live. US population in 1960 was 179,323,175.
Dont care….refuse to watch lies.
4.9 million total viewers? Isn’t that what Tucker would get on a real good night? He averages 2.8 million per night.
As the ratings for the cable news networks show, the hearings were a success. MSNBC topped Fox News in terms of total viewers, averaging 3.95 million across prime time.
Fox averaged a total of 2.92 million total viewers for its counter-programming, which is a small boost from the night before, which brought in some 2.58 million total viewers.
CNN, along with MSNBC, beat Fox News in the key 25-54 age demographic. CNN won the night with a big 733,000 demo viewers, while MSNBC had 573,000 and Fox landed in third with 537,000.
CNN also saw its total-viewer average skyrocket as the struggling network brought in 2.62 million total viewers – a major boost from its 517,000 average prime time viewers the night before.
The hearings were also a boon for Fox Business Network, which raked in 223,000 average viewers from 8 to 10 p.m., significantly topping competitor CNBC, which averaged 158,000 during the same hours.
Since Tucker is always #1 for the 8pm et time slot but wasn't last night, I guess some of his viewers decided to torture themselves and watch the sideshow.
Math is racist.
Tampa market here -— FOX13 RAN THIS CRAP — no Fox in Tampa DID NOT RUN Masterchef Junior. The wife was pissed.
Article LIES.
Yeah, kind of like when they used to say "Cheve Vega is the best car in its class for customer satisfaction."
The fine print at the bottom of the screen said something like "Class consists of all American-made cars having cast aluminum engine blocks and cast iron cylinder heads."
Tuck was on last night. FoxxBusiness showed the hearings, not Fox News.
You naysayers are wrong. We really should watch-I didn’t. Reruns perhaps-span.
We have to stay on top of our enemies and pay attention to what they’re up to. Most important we have to see how our people are standing up for us. The rats would constantly interrupt and our chairman are wusses-always have been. There’s an election coming up. It’s what it’s all about. Rats are desperate and our representatives have no business giving them any opening.
HUH? Butt, butt, butt 81 million votes........... You know, 10 million more than the articulate decent looking black guy with no ghetto accent.🤬
Nice catch between “total” and “average” viewers, especially over 2 hours.
If next to no one went from not believing the Jan 6 hoax to believing it after last night, I’d be surprised.
If many viewers who came in curious ended up switching the channel, thinking, “This is bullshit,” I’d be very unsurprised.
That said, most viewers merely confirmed their prior biases.
