Sean Hannity’s Ratings Plunge After Tucker Carlson’s Fox News Exit
Epoch Times ^ | April 29, 2023 | Jack Phillips

Tucker Carlson’s exit from Fox News appears to be impacting more than just the timeslot that he hosted for years on the network.

Carlson’s finale a week ago drew 2.65 million viewers, according to Nielsen. The data shows that Brian Kilmeade’s substitute hosting gig for “Fox News Tonight” saw ratings of 2.59 million on Monday, 1.7 million on Tuesday, and 1.33 million on Wednesday, respectively. Last Wednesday, Carlson drew about 3 million viewers, Nielsen figures show.

But the 9 p.m. Fox News program hosted by Sean Hannity drew about 2.5 million on Monday, 2 million on Tuesday, and 1.7 million on Wednesday night, according to Nielsen. In comparison, Hannity drew about 2.6 million viewers the Wednesday a week before, the ratings show.

I stopped watching Hannity when he would shake hands with his guest while holding his pen in his hand, jerk.

True, very true. Became sick of his attitude, arrogance, and idiocy a long time ago. After 2020 election, he’s dead to me.
Also, in my 61 years, I’ve never heard anyone use the term “specificity” in nearly every conversation…. it seems Hannity thinks it hides his ignorance.

I watch Hindustan Times videos when I want to see Russian propaganda.

When I want to view Ukrainian propaganda, I come here.

Long before Hannity became a thing, I knew that somebody with a NY accent wearing cowboy boots was a poser.

Hannity personifies all that is wrong with the modern conservative movement. A thin gruel of stale platitudes delivered by a sub-par IQ host. In both messaging and messengers, conservatives are being outmaneuvered.

Hannity is probably running out the clock on his contract with Fox. Mailing it in.

“Sean Hannity’s Ratings Plunge After Tucker Carlson’s Fox News Exit”

Told you so.

Loss leader or better put lost leader.

Tucker was their leader. Now that they “lost” him, people who tuned in to see Tucker stuck around for Hannity and others.

Now, without the draw of Tucker, fewer are tuning in AT ALL!

Hey Murdochs, toasting each other with Bud Lights? FOOLS!

Be careful what you say about Hannity or he will send his “Twitter army” after all you Freeps.

Yes, that’s what he used to call us years ago because he didn’t get the respect that he thought he deserved. I don’t remember if he was registered here or he only lurked.

If money was all that matters you might have a point.

Lebron James and Jay-Z are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. I wouldn't trade places with either of them if I was a cockroach.

This simply proves that most of Hannity’s viewers weren’t viewers at all.

They were people who walked away from the TV after Carlson’s show and forgot to turn it off…

Why does anyone watch or listen to this disloyal, untalented buffoon anyway?

His show went downhill when Colmes left.

I want to have Sean's baby.

I always wondered what Sean's FR screen name was.

DITTO, way to much this is EXACTLY WHY we don’t win our battles, watching a TV station who betrayed our principles AFTER we made them successful is to much for 1.7 MILLION people to give up and try to save our nation!! OUR SIDE are gutless a small sacrifice like NO FOX is to much for our side to bare!!

The late great Bob Grant used to pejoratively refer to Hannity as a “wall banger.”

At least Trump was a lifelong friend and did not spend 3 weeks sliming her by saying she was a Liberal when she was pro life.
