I watched latter part of Trump’s “town hall” on NewsMaxTV. I don’t suppose that channel gets figured in to the MSM ratings.

Several NBC stations on the West Coast including major ones in LA did not air the Trump town hall live. Yesterday the ABC stations in the same markets aired Biden live.

People will tune into Biden like rubbernecks, they always have to slow down to look at the disastrous events...People go out of their way to see the fire, or a plane crash...Same thing with Biden.

Rush discussed this today. He said he was being emailed and texted by a great many people asking him what happened to the Trump Townhall?
They had tuned in to NBC in their market and it was not being broadcast. Turns out that NBC allowed local markets to decide whether to broadcast the Townhall or not. Many local markets chose not to.
ABC gave no such option to any of its affiliates.

Let’s see. Biden rallies draw tens of peoples; Trump rallies draw tens of thousands of people. So call me skeptical.

Bingo!

Everyone you watched Trump for a full hour and then tuned in to the last half hour of Biden got counted as a Biden viewer.

I call BS. ABC is invested in Biden winning.......and ABC is the only one that is giving their viewers.

One question: were Trump’s number disclosed before ABC gave their numbers?

This was early Nielsen data. Data now released shows Trump garnered about a million more views.

I would think a lot of people tuned in the Biden townhall out of curiosity over whether he would actually be asked about the biggest story of the day, his family’s immense corruption and influence peddling. Of course, he was not.

Lol, that’s why more people were watching Biden - they were waiting for that very question. Too bad, should’ve known it would never come up.
