History Channel’s ‘Ancient Aliens’ Outperforms CNN In Primetime
Breitbart ^ | 08/14/18 | Katherine Rodriguez

Posted on 08/16/2018 6:17:38 AM PDT by Enlightened1

CNN tanked in the cable ratings between August 6 and August 12, losing out to Fox News, MSNBC, and even the History Channel show Ancient Aliens, according to the latest data from Nielsen Media Research.

CNN’s competitors, Fox News and MSNBC, defeated CNN handily in the ratings war this week. Fox News took the number one slot for primetime viewership at 2.18 million viewers, and MSNBC came in second with 1.75 million viewers.

CNN finished in a distant seventh place, attracting 992,000 average viewers and falling behind HGTV, USA, the History Channel, and TBS in the weekly ratings.

The primetime lineup for the History Channel includes the show Ancient Aliens, a show which delves into the conspiracy theories behind aliens, while CNN’s lineup features hosts Anderson Cooper and Chris Cuomo. The History Channel had 1.06 million viewers in primetime this week.

The network did not fare much better in the ratings for its daytime programming. CNN finished in sixth place, lagging behind Fox News, HGTV, Nickelodeon, MSNBC, and Investigation Discovery.

I am not saying I believe anything on it but Ancient Aliens is my favorite series. I had never watched one minute of this show until I surfed and ran into a rerun showing theories about the prophets just as I was studying them.

Then I bought all the dvds from the 11 years I missed. I love the show. I do not watch ANY current TV shows and no refuse to watch the “news”.

Flaws: straining the make connections to fit the topic such as cosmic egg or sounds of creation. Also, 2012 stuff was silly (end of world). But, try to refute all the good stuff.

Also, I see on Daily Mail or various science feature Drudge lists the same things Ancient Aliens thoroughly investigated years and years ago (new lost sphinx effigy under sand as excavators reveal artifacts Egyptians said did not exist,etc.)

Please don’t insult Mr.Tsoukalos by putting his image next to that abomination before my eyes. I consider the gray haired freak a criminal.

I refuse to have anything to do with science fiction after devoting years to it earlier.

I fully enjoy Ancient Aliens and do not agree with people who are prejudiced against it. Watch Linda Moulton Howe reading from formerly classified documents about the CIA and FBI being secretly corrupt in the 1960s and the lines “we may have to go wet to stop (President Kennedy under a code name).”
Going wet means the wet blood coming out of a target shot by the FBI or CIA. JFK died a few weeks later, bleeding.

Please watch the 2017 episode and refute it.
Not all are absolute fact and some are obviously silly but they are fun to watch and take with a grain of salt. Evrybody lighten up about Ancient Aliens, please.

The hard facts are difficult to refute. Like rotary tool marks and rocks with surfaces as true as a modern truing table. Maybe aliens. Maybe not. But those artifacts weren’t made with chisels.
