‘Morning Joe’ Beat ‘Fox & Friends’ in Total Viewers for 1st Time Since 2001
The Wrap ^ | 11/18/2020 | Tony Maglio

Last week, MSNBC’s morning show “Morning Joe” topped Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends” in total viewers for the first time since 2001. The same claim holds true for MSNBC’s “dayside” (weekdays 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) programming vs. Fox News Channel’s, if one wants another snapshot at the first-time-in-19-years claim.

“Morning Joe” averaged 1.62 million total viewers from Nov. 9 to Nov. 13. “Fox & Friends” had an average of 1.38 million total viewers over the same Monday-Friday period.

All told, the “dayside” advantage was 120,000 total viewers in MSNBC’s advantage, according to Nielsen. MSNBC averaged 1.64 million total viewers to Fox News’ 1.52 million total viewers. Those numbers represent growth for MSNBC of +30% from the week prior to the election, while the Fox News Channel lineup slipped -33% from the final week of October 2020.

Except for Tucker, I don’t watch Fox anymore.

Odd how things change. I watched F&F, but got tired of the personalities being more important than the content. I switched to Morning Joe to see what the commies were saying, and I liked the panel format. Trump got elected, Joe stated his sole mission was to oppose Trump. I found Mornings with Maria on FBN.

I won’t watch either FNC or MSNBC now, not even on a bad bet.

FBN is starting to get the Murdoch creep. More libs to “debate”, and Cavuto, ugh.

I am starting to see Tucker as a company man too.

Joe’s meltdowns are fun to watch...on youtube so he doesn’t get any ratings, of course

This isn’t just a typical post-election drop in interest. If it was the other networks would have comparable declines and they don’t.

I stopped watching Fox and Friends years ago. I couldn’t stand the rushed segments all the time. They crammed so much in and then would rush guests off the air.

I always felt sorry for the toy lady who would take all that crap to the studio at 4 am, just to have 30 seconds to describe it all.

Plus, too many technical glitches.

I wonder if that Murdock woman realizes yet what she actually meant when she proclaimed “we did it”!!!

And Fox ratings dropped more than MSNBC ratings increased. Morning Psycho won because of Foxit.

I’ve always loved Fox and Friends but watch very little TV anymore. They seemed to be one of Donald’s favorite to appear on. I find it hard to believe Morning Psycho is worth watching .

The Fox experiment is dead.

Bust it into small pieces and bury it. Deep.

Who can stomach a cheery Rino cheering Kilmeadeand & Doocy in the morning right now?

Now that Fox is wounded, kill it.

NO MIDDLE GROUND!

20 years of Fox gains gone in a week. What the hell were they thinking?

Exactly right. I really think a good portion of the Fox News audience is alienated and won’t be coming back for a while, if ever.

Fox has to do some fence-mending, but I for one won’t be back. Broken trust.

I think it's spectacularly wrong headed to bash fox news. we may not like them very much these days, but we're part of the conservative base. our minds (for those of us that haven't lost theirs yet) are already made up.

FNC stands a better chance of reaching those swing voters, and moving them our way. they have a legitimate purpose to serve that cannot be accomplished if they're dead.

crowing over the corpse of FNC does not, and will not, benefit us in the end.
