Nolte: CNN Death Spiral — Ratings Drop to 396,000 Total Viewers
Breitbart ^ | 06/20/2204 | JOHN NOLTE

Posted on 06/20/2024 1:52:17 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

CNN, a far-left propaganda outlet that spreads conspiracy theories and political violence, is in a glorious ratings death spiral, the likes of which we have never seen before.

Nothing can save CNNLOL — not even a tight presidential race, a presidential nominee convicted in a kangaroo court, an open border, an explosion in violent crime, or two major wars. Throughout the week of June 10, CNN was only able to attract an average of 396,000 viewers throughout the total day.

That is astonishing.

During its dreadful primetime hours, CNN dropped below 500,000 total viewers for the week to a pathetic average of just 477,000.

CNN is really collapsing in the most important arena, the 25-54 age demo that determines advertiser rates. CNN averaged only 80,000 demo viewers during primetime and 69,000 throughout the total day.

Before celebrating, let’s count up all the other outlets that are effectively off-shoots of CNN and its Leftist bent. Too numerous to name, probably.

Great news; great point. Probably fake numbers too for fake news.

They’re committed Marxists. It’s always about the revolution.

They’re to big to fail! Every subscription to cable pays CNN, watched or not.

Until it cuts into their carriage fees it means nothing. They have $1B a year flowing in before they sell ad #1.

True, unplugged years ago, but even then come renegotiations time, should see large drop per subscriber donated to “the cause”

Unlike some folks around here who rant against the evils of the airline industry, but haven't set foot in an airport for decades ...

I still regularly fly commercial.

I haven't seen CNN in an airport for several years. The formerly ubiquitous CNN supplied CNN-all-the-time displays vanished all about the same time.

They are state run media. They don’t have to make money. That’s not their mandate.

That’s okay, Fox News is picking up the propaganda slack for the fascists.

They rake in the cash with subscribers even if no one is watching. But unfortunately, some people still are, including their videos on social media which have more views than their ratings...so they are still having some influence...and if they continue to have subscribers, they will continue to stay afloat to have this influence.

"I haven't seen CNN in an airport for several years."

CNN Airport Network shut down operations in March 2021.
