If any of the January 6 Commission’s hearings are again scheduled to take place in prime time, it’s entirely possible that the networks will take a “hard pass” next time:
🚨🚨 Dems BS 1/6 hearings BOMB in the ratings!
8pm ET ABC Attack on the Capitol 0.5 4.477 NBC January 6th Hearings 0.4 3.296 CBC Capitol Assault Hearings 0.3 3.335
9pm ET ABC AOC 0.6 4.233 NBC Jan 6 0.4 3.331 CBS CAH 0.3 3.139

The Hill’s Joe Concha adds some context:
Context: The evening newscasts on CBS, NBC & ABC average anywhere from 18 to 20 million viewers combined on a typical night. Those newscasts do not air in primetime. The January 6 hearings airing in primetime Thursday took in just 11+ million viewers on those three same networks. https://t.co/KcdsM5sx3Z

CNN and MSNBC were up because that’s basically the 1/6 Commission’s base, and no doubt they’ll be hoping for another hearing in prime time, but the networks certainly won’t.

The Left criticized Fox News for not airing the hearing (it was broadcast on Fox Business) but they did discuss what was going on during their regular programming.
🤣😂🤣 Based on the ratings (or lack thereof)… a whopping 11M on network…
Most people were also buy with other business instead of worrying about BS from 17 months ago https://t.co/RLkOefIzve

The Democrats’ (with the help of a couple Republicans) attempt to distract Americans from the real problems is failing miserably with all but the Left’s base.
*** trending (other articles on Twitchy) --- Thread on the 'ugly truth' about what regular Americans REALLY think about January 6 is straight-FIRE --- ‘You’d want to pop ’em’: A ‘viscerally angry’ 79-year-old Biden has a plan to lower shipping costs
That was the first night. Downhill from there.
How many more episodes?
You could almost say this was the libs ‘preaching to their own choir’ — no minds were changed, not the way they want.
They’re not worried because Biden is bailing them out
Whatta bout Season 2.0?
Promising a Smiley Virus halftime show to draw a crowd was a big mistake. LOL.
One thing brought up was why the president wasn’t put in a bunker? Interesting question since the rest of the leadership was.
Just like with Mueller - they got nuthin’.
Oh that’s too bad…where were the 81,000,000????…they would have done better with reruns of fantasy island…or the twilight zone which is what they have inflicted on this country…
There was a Hockey game on.
I like the ray epps documentary of rumble better. Looks like he could have been working with the enemy. He has disappeared. Another one about a guy in jail that said there was a girl killed by the police that’s being covered up. Not Babbit a different woman.
Cool! It will be interesting to see how well the laws of supply and demand kowtow to piss-ant laws passed by Congress.
Also, instead of wasting taxpayers' dollars on yet another bogus hearing, let's prosecute Hillary for treason and Hunter for his crimes. Only then will I give you clowns in DC the time of day.
Imagine what these people would do if they had serious power!
Is there going to be a cliff-hanger ending??? Are we going to have to wait until next season to see how it ends????
. . . What absurd, corrupt tripe!!!!!!!!! The networks are complicit in displaying this evil fraud of Marxist show-trial . . . IN PRIME TIME!!!!!!!!
It is impossible for me to NOT watch them more than I do already.
Nobody cares about this staged political hit job.
Most people see it for what it is.
Pure propaganda by people desperate to keep power.
The proponents of the hearings are confirmed liars and cheats and known to have zero ethics. The justice system is openly two tiered for all to see. The more likely result of this government conspiracy witchhunt is to turn Trump and the rest of those being held into martyrs ans saints. We just don’t believe them any more.
Instead, we started clearing out the junk room.
The Democrats’ (with the help of a couple Republicans) attempt to distract Americans from the real problems.
Nothing ever changes in a rat hole.
