CNN, MSNBC Ratings Tank After Trump Election Win

 


BY C STONE | STONE NEWS NETWORK

In the news network ratings game, the rule of law is simple: If you lose viewers, you're cancelled. The broadcast news business can be brutally unforgiving. 

CNN: -27 % drop in viewership

MSNBC: -38% drop

Fox News: +41 increase in viewers


According to multiple news sources:

Primetime viewership similarly cratered for MSNBC and CNN, with MSNBC seeing a 48% decline following the election with an average viewership of

691,000, while CNN slid 35% to average 470,000 viewers. Fox News’ primetime audience meanwhile grew 34% with an average viewership of 3.157 million.


MSNBC’s ratings in key cable demo among adults 25-54 also slid

53% in primetime and 41% in total day, while CNN’s demo audience dropped 35% in primetime and 26% in total day. Likewise, Fox News saw a 46% jump in demo viewership in primetime while the network’s total day demo viewership soared 49%.

And now, Fox News currently has 74% of the cable news audience in prime time viewers. MSNBC has a 16% portion, and leaving CNN with a tiny 11%.

And readers will remember Stone News Network reminding you that CNN and MSNBC have been dropping in ratings for the past 2 years. 

Fox and Friends continues to be a daily viewed show by Trump; we doubt he pays any attention to MSNBC nor CNN.
