CNN’s ratings drop coincides with release of Mueller report
NY Post ^ | May 1, 2019 | Richard Morgan

CNN’s prime-time ratings plunged 26% in April — the cable news network’s worst month for total viewers since October 2015, according to Nielsen Media Research.

The network suffered a 41% slide in viewers aged 25 to 54 — the demographic most coveted by advertisers. And not one of its prime-time shows finished in the top five for news.

CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time,” which airs during the network’s highest-rated hour, finished in 26th place.

The ratings slide coincides with special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian election interference, which found no collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign — a boon for Trump supporters and a letdown for people who want him impeached.

The WarnerMedia news outlet run by Jeff Zucker drew 198,000 viewers in the 25-to-54 age group, while MSNBC delivered 255,000 and Fox News 389,000.

“Others” must include The Real McCoys reruns.

Just about every cable tv owner in America pays a piece of their fee to CNN whether they watch it or not. CNN isn’t worried about ratings.

People now know that Anderson Cooper is nothing but a dnc stooge.

The pompous blowhard always tries to claim he’s neutral, but people know better, especially after his little staged dances with that nutty Puerto Rican mayor.

CNN drew 198K viewers in the 25-to-54 age group. MSNBC delivered 255K.
Thats 453K total, sports fans. Far more than Fox News's 389K.

The Cultural Marxists are still ahead.

For the first time in decades the "package" system may be threatened. As more people opt out and instead pay for these new services, many of which might not have CNN, revenue models will change IMO.

Democrats, Low lifes, America Haters...wanna see a gent with great supporter pulling powers...check out POTUS, Donald J. Trump next Wednesday, May 8, 2019 at his scheduled Rally in Panama City Beach, Florida. Don’t bother to follow along with Democrat, Joe Biden and the other failed Democrat POTUS Candidate failures...which they all are.

Trump makes all of them look like the losers they really are. All these Dem Candidates combined together, have zilch supporter (No one shows up) drawing power at their rallies!!!

I’ve watched that show, and CNN should be worried.

It’s a good show, something CNN hasn’t been able to muster for decades.

I enjoy watching their show until Comcast remove HGTV off their line up.

LOL. That's a lot of work D.O. You need to learn about .jpg files and images and stuff.

Try YouTube.

😄

I know about them.

Sometimes there’s pleasure in going old school.

I found an HTML code that is very useful.

Replace the space after < and before >...

To turn it on.

< pre class=”txt” >

Type what you want here, and no spaces will be reduced when your HTML text runs.

At the end of your text...

< /pre >

What I did there only took a couple of minutes.

I hope you’re right. I’d like nothing better than to see CNN go out of business in my lifetime.
