People aren’t buying it. CNN and MSNBC ratings are dropping. Combined they are substantially less than Fox.
Fox ratings are getting in the range of the big network ratings - CBS, NBC, ABC. Tucker Carleson’s interview with Kyle was over 5 million, which is more than some CBS evening newscasts.
Seriously, who would watch man hating feminist NorDUH O'Donnell lie about the news?
The problem is that the networks don’t depend on ratings to survive - they depend on sponsorship from Pfizer and other giant corporations.
Those sponsors do not have to care about the ratings competition between the networks - because they own all the networks. They only care about pushing certain narratives.
If one network loses ratings to another, Pfizer won’t pull their sponsorship - as long as their narratives are being advanced.
