Not sure Nielsen ratings can be compared to “views,” which could last a few moments, an hour or be the same person “clicking” more than once. But an impressive number all the same. Kudos to Tucker, and curses to FauxNews.
So, two out of three Americans has watched this?
I highly doubt this.
It popped up in my feed. I scrolled past it. That counted as a view.
Sure, Trump got 200 million views
But after a month-long voting season and another tortuously absurd month of counting, Joe Biden will get 200 million votes.
“views” is anyone scrolling past the video. And if the same person does that more than once, it is another view. Also includes those who actually did watch it who watched it more than once, and / or watched part of it and then came back later to watch other parts of it - each a separate “view.” X/Twitter is also as ubiquitous outside of the US as it is within.
That doesn’t diminish the fact enough people were interested too at least scroll past it that many times - but difficult to say it was the “most watched interview ever.” The Oprah interviews most likely involved people sitting down on the couch and people watching the whole show from start to finish. Today, it can be people sitting there casually scrolling past something while fidgeting around on the phone and may or may not even be paying that close of attention.
GOOD!!!!
150 million (counting fraudulent) voted in total in 2020. So what we’re saying is that 50 million more than the entire national vote count “watched” this interview. For perspective, the Super Bowl pulls in 200 million. So you’re saying the interview with Tucker was as big as the Super Bowl. I smell a load of BS.
Tucker could have charged millions for a 30 second ad if this were the case. I think this number is being misrepresented big time.
50 million “viewers” more than the entire 2020 election. Right.
I watched the entire interview and I almost never watch interviews, like once every 20 years.
