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.
