CNN Primetime Ratings Plummet Behind Newsmax After Trump Bump

CNN’s Trump bump quickly came to a crashing halt.

The ratings-challenged cable news network drew just 335,000 average viewers during its three-hour primetime bloc on Friday — placing it not only behind Fox and MSNBC but also fringe outlet Newsmax.

The woeful figures came two days after CNN drew its highest ratings in two years from its controversial town hall with former President Donald Trump.

The right-leaning channel Newsmax — which launched in 2014, more than three decades after CNN was founded — garnered 357,000 average primetime viewers.

Nolte: Tucker Carlson-less Fox News Primetime Loses to MSNBC Monday

The far-left MSNBC attracted more total primetime viewers than the Tucker Carlson-less Fox News on Monday.

CNN—a left-wing propaganda outlet that spreads conspiracy theories and encourages political violence against Republicans—was so far in last place Monday it looked like the speck of dirt it really is.

On Monday, without any special programming, MSNBC averaged a total of 1.859 million total primetime viewers.

On that same Monday, without Tucker Carlson, Fox News fell behind MSNBC, with an average of only 1.719 million total primetime viewers.

*pause for a hearty laugh*

Oh, and on Monday, CNNLOL averaged just 485,000 total primetime viewers.

Result: on Friday, CNNLOL attracted fewer total primetime viewers than Newsmax TV—335,000 for CNN compared to 357,000 for Newsmax. With 420,000 viewers, Newsmax was right behind CNN Monday.

CNN Ratings Plummet after Trump town hall: Cable news network Suffered WORST Week Since 2015, Averaging Just 429,000 Total Daily Viewers - while MSNBC had DOUBLE the audience and Fox News had 1.4M

CNN's ratings continue to plunge following the network's controversial town hall interview with Donald Trump.

Last week, the first full week since the May 10 town hall, CNN suffered its lowest-rated week since June 2015, averaging just 429,000 total daily viewers from Monday-Friday, according to ratings data cited by the Daily Beast.

MSNBC had more than double the daily viewers, with 976,000, while Fox News drew a daily audience of 1.4 million, despite a plunge in viewership following the firing of host Tucker Carlson earlier this month.

The May 10 Trump town hall attracted 3.3 million viewers, making CNN the most-watched cable news network that evening, according to Nielsen data -- but the network has been mired in controversy over the event and seen a drop-off in ratings in the aftermath.

Fox News has suffered its own ratings slump in the weeks following Carlson's departure, and last week the network was down 41 percent from a year ago in the key age demo, and down 24 percent in total viewers.

The last three weeks have been Fox News' lowest three weeks in total day ratings in the key demo since prior to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

Many Fox News viewers seem to have fled for the smaller right-wing channel Newsmax, which has seen a ratings bump in three weeks since Carlson's firing, with viewership in the demo up 120 percent compared to the prior four weeks.

For both CNN and Fox, the damage seems to be heaviest in the primetime, and CNN has seen several of its primetime hours fall behind Newsmax since the town hall.

Ha, ha: Only rubes/idiots/MAGA distrust the mainstream media, and the reason there is distrust is because corrupt, dishonest politicians like to deflect their flaws, crimes, mistakes, questionable decisions by blaming the media. Look at DeSantis--the biggest/smallest d-ck in America. He attacks any reporters who asks him a tough question because he doesn't want to deal with tough questions or decisions that could reflect poorly on him. Blaming the media has been a conservative/GOP tactic for years--look at the gangster with all his "fake news" bull$hit. The only fraudulence is coming from trump---fact. In fact, the U.S. media is one of the major strengths of our democracy and our system. If conservatives had their way, their would be no reporting on corrupt public officials or feckless policy decisions; the "news" would be not much more than firemen rescuing cats from trees. That is the way they are. Look at the rubes who think that the gangster has never done anything wrong and the media/Dems are just out to get him. Their naivety is only exceeded by their bias and stupidty; the man has been a walking police/ethics blotter for decades. Do rubes realize how much corruption there would be in America without our mainstream media? This is why the GOP has taken a turn toward fascism: they would get rid of all investigative reporting and turn the U.S. into a country resembling Russia--with the government controlling the media. That's a gangster/tiny DeSantis wet dream.

Yes. Conservatives block reporting on corrupt officials. I remember when Ben Shapiro blocked the NY Post reporting on Hunters
laptop. Ohhh wait… no that wasnt Ben Shapiro. I also Remember when DeSantis told reporters to shut up and got caught calling one of them a “sumbitch” on a hot mike. Nooooo that wasn’t Desantis. Anything else I can help you with?

Ha, ha: Only rubes/idiots/snowflakes trust the mainstream media, and the reason there is trust is because corrupt, dishonest politicians like to deflect their flaws, crimes, mistakes, questionable decisions by blaming the American people. Look at Joe Biden--the biggest racist/dementia patient d-ck in America. He attacks any reporters who asks him a tough question because he doesn't want to deal with tough questions or decisions that could reflect poorly on him. Blaming the American people has been a liberal/DEM tactic for years--look at the racist with all his "C'mon Man" bull$hit. The only fraudulence is coming from Biden---fact. In fact, the U.S. media is the major strength the democrats use to tear down America . If democrats had their way, their would be no reporting on corrupt public officials or feckless policy decisions; the "news" would be not much more than trans firemen rescuing cats from trees. That is the way they are. Look at the rubes who think that the racist has never done anything wrong and the stairs/middle class are just out to get him. Their naivety is only exceeded by their bias and stupidity; the man has been a walking police/ethics blotter for decades. Do rubes realize how much less corruption there would be in America without our mainstream media? This is why the DEMS have taken a turn toward fascism: they would get rid of all investigative reporting and turn the U.S. into a country resembling Russia, Russia, Russia,--with the government controlling the media. That's a racist/dementia addled wet dream.
