Laura Ingraham’s “The Ingraham Angle” drew 2.156 million on Wednesday, April 19. But this past Wednesday, two days after Carlson was confirmed gone, her show drew 1.55 million viewers.

Jesse Watters’ show also saw a decline. For Wednesday, it saw an audience of 1.558 million, but a week prior, it generated 2.1 million.

In response to the Nielsen ratings numbers, Fox News said in a statement to news outlets that Fox has been cable news’ most-watched network for 21 years, with its team “trusted more by viewers than any other news source.” When reached for comment, a Fox spokesperson also told The Epoch Times that “Fox News led cable news on Monday and Tuesday across total day and primetime with viewers and A25-54,” referring to the 25-54 age demographic coveted by advertisers.

Fox is headed to the cable graveyard to keep CNN & MSNBC company.

My cup of schadenfreude positively runneth over!

Anyone still watching Fox is still stuck in the old paradigm. They probably believe Zelinsky is a good guy and think Mickey Haley would be a good president.

Watters has been out on FMLA for the last two weeks.

I very rarely watch Hannity - I turned him off ages ago because his questions are 5 minutes long, not leaving the guest time to answer, and when they do, he constantly interrupts. He also talks about himself at every opportunity which drives me nuts.

Having watched Fox Prime time since the days of “Hannity and Combes”, I stopped watching the evening FNC since Tucker left. I now watch Hindustan Times videos watching the Russians kicking Ukrainians and the Biden Crime Family's butts instead. BTW, Neocons you are losing bad the Proxy War!

Fox has more competition for conservative viewers than ever before. There is Newsmax, OAN, Real America’s Voice and more. These networks have some very good shows, so who needs Fox?

Watters was off last week

I suspect ratings will increase for his show and some of that will bleed over into prime time

Sean the roofer
Sean the wallbanger
Sean the martial arts guy (SF’s don’t use Martil arts other than Krav)
Sean the marksman.

What a ludicrous hack.

Fox is headed toward becoming the Drudge Report of television. It will always be there but soon it will be a “safe” place for Democrat/communists to go on and be interviewed.

Quick, Mr. Hannity, step up that tick-tock game of yours. You know, spend days hinting that a major story is about to break. Then do not deliver.

Yep, that should bring the viewers back.

Sean Vanity is a deep state tool. When the fired the great Bob Grant at WABC they put the shit bag Vanity in his place and the rest is sad history.

Boycott Fox, sure, but what is the aim in suddenly trashing Hannity? Or Ingraham? Or others?

I’ve never been a huge fan of Fox’s lineup. I tune in semi-regularly, though, to Carlson and Bartiromo, who stand far above in terms of seriousness and rigor (and not just compared to the network’s other talking heads). In the wake of Carlson’s departure, I too find myself putting Fox at the end of my morning read, visiting near last and for a brief time only. But I have no antipathy toward the poor sops who are presently stuck headlining Fox. Why would I? Blame lies strictly with the Murdoch family and the corporate suits.

As long as I’m posting, it is inconceivable to me that either the Murdochs or their minions could imagine muzzling Carlson through the end of 2024 by keeping him under contract. This would be an act so stupid and suicidal that it just isn’t plausible.

They’ll free Carlson from his contract as soon as they can. They desperately want and need separation. It’s Carlson who will extract his pound of flesh over this, not the other way around.

No Fox at all.

Ratings improved slightly by weeks end. My guess is that will continue as the anger wears off. If it continues, it shows how soft Laura, Sean & Gutfeld really are.
