Fox News And MSNBC’s Regular Programming Beat CNN’s Climate Change Town Hall In TV Ratings
Daily Caller ^ | Sept 5, 2019 | William Davis

CNN’s seven hour Climate Change town hall Wednesday night was not enough to propel the network past Fox News and MSNBC in the day’s cable television ratings.

During the same time period that Democratic presidential candidates were discussing their plans to combat climate change with a town hall audience, Fox News pulled in 2.5 million viewers compared to just 1.1 million for CNN, according to Nielsen Media Research.

Fox News also continued to dominate prime-time, averaging nearly 3.2 million viewers, compared to roughly 2.1 million for MSNBC and 1.4 million for CNN.

There are probably public access shows that outperformed that Town Hall diatribe.

CNN Should already have known that this tripe purely dedicated to climate change is not going to get them viewers. BUT THEY DID IT ANYWAY.

Which tells me everything I need to know about their network’s ideology.

Since FOX News has devolved into CNN-lite, I no longer care if FNC has more than 1 viewer.

“Controlled Opposition”

WOW.....I am impressed “NOT”....CNN drew an amazing 1.4 million viewers last night, while FNC drew 4.1 million viewers with its regular evening lineup. I would have to say, based on the fact that there are now 332,000,000 people in the USA and CNN could not even attract 1% of them...tells me the Democrat Party is about to get slaughtered in the 2020 POTUS race. I also look for low life, moron, buffoon, idiot, bloody eye, Joe Biden to withdraw from the POTUS...with Beto O’Rourke not far behind!!! There is one thing that I agree with radical Arabs on...GOD is great...he is removing these low life Democrat Party scum & vermin that would put the USA in harm’s way!!! Case closed!!!

CNN is following the DirecTV business model of how to drive away customers.

Leftists see everything as a subjective analogy, never see things objectively as they are.

Let’s put all of cable news in perspective. There are about 155 million registered voters. The three main cable news networks combined pull in about 7 million viewers a night. That’s 4.5% of registered voters.

The few minutes I had on FOX today, they were all talking about this stupid thing on CNN, so if you didn’t watch it you should know all about it by now. I wish FOX news would have ignored the whole thing. I turned FOX off.
