The primetime hearings for the Jan. 6 commission's investigation into the 2021 Capitol riot were broadcast live on almost every major station, yet failed to capture national interest and produced ratings far below other comparable national televised political events.
Almost 20 million viewers tuned in for the hearings on Thursday night, according to The Hill. By contrast, President Joe Biden's State of the Union address in March pulled in 38 million viewers. In 2018, then-President Donald Trump's first State of the Union attracted over 45 million, per the New York Post.

The rest of the country didn't watch because they didn't give a d***. The legacy media hasn't figured that part out.
I agree with Tucker in that these hearings provide the legacy news channels a break from having to discuss the bad news that is destroying the country.
I wish Tucker would run a full hour on “The Murder of Ashli Badbbit and other Lies” when the next s#it show is aired.
"20 million hard-core leftists tuned in."
That's an impressive .0606060606060606 segment of the United States population.
Fake Libtard Propaganda Show Fails to Lure Suckers 🤪
20 million is probably close to the actual votes cast for Biden in 2020. Just saying!
20 million is not small. It’s a lot more than watching their regular shows. Who stuck up for us on our side?
Ditto!
7 - January 6th - 3% concerned, 0.18% very concerned.
Doesn’t matter. So-called news shows will replay this for months.
People are too busy looking at the grocery and gas bills to look at such dreck.
Just The News is quoting from The Hill. Others are reporting that they only had 11 million tune in. It was even lighter after hour 1.
The evening “news” on these networks collectively get an average daily viewing of 1.6 times those who tuned into this garbage last night.
20 million tuned in, and then tuned out 5 minutes after listening to the Cheney hag drone on about nothing.
I refuse to watch. I don’t like circuses and I despise their clowns.
I can’t figure it out. Every channel that no one watches broadcast this extravaganza and that didn’t amount to big umber? I just don’t get it
I proudly didn’t watch any of it. I stuck with my local radio regular programing.
People are too busy looking at the grocery and gas bills...

And worried about their personal safety.
The country is disintegrating around them.
