Nolte: Doomed CNN’s Primetime Ratings Hit 33-Year Low
Breitbart ^ | 05/23/2024 | JOHN NOLTE

Posted on 05/23/2024 8:25:50 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

“CNN suffered its worst ratings among primetime viewers in the most coveted demographic by advertisers” since 1991, reports the New York Post.

Glorious.

“The [disgraced] cable channel … drew just 83,000 viewers aged 25 to 54 during the week of May 13-19 from 8 to 11 p.m. — its lowest-rated week since 1991, according to Nielsen.”

Glorious!

“Fox News garnered more than twice the audience in the key demo, with 186,000 viewers, according to Nielsen. Left-leaning MSNBC was a distant second with 111,000, the data showed.”

GLORIOUS.

Struggling CNN dropped into fourth place behind Newsmax for prime time viewership ratings last Friday night, the slump following a rare climb to the top driven by Donald Trump’s town hall appearance. https://t.co/LTQRhfhu3p

How do they stay in business? Because they are a paid government contractor.

You know who has been gaining while CNN has declined: MSNBC.

The Dims keep mobing further to the Left with further to the Left media benefitting.

When the government itself runs the news media, there is no incentive to report news. It merely shapes itself around its self interest disguised as news.

Some good news for the day. I guess fewer and fewer people are going for the woke BS. Also, the bias in the Trump reporting.

A rerun of Sponge Bob SquarePants draws 2 million viewers, beating out ALL the cable news outlets.

It just demonstrates how non-important the Nielson Ratings is, or how many low information voters are in the USA.

I’d rather watch SpongeBob than Network News.

Just when we thought there was no good news. Maybe they can report on the assassination attempt?

Spewing deep state propaganda/lies doesn't require ad revenue...it's all paid by the deep state.

In related news...

Gov. doesn't need your tax dollars (they make money out of thin air with a keyboard click)...taxing is merely a means of control.

The day may come when only CNN will be permitted to run, all others banned by the Government.
