Mainecat Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Who knew? How Many People Actually Watch Fox News in America? Fewer than you might think, actually. In fact, all three major networks, ABC, NBC, and CBS have far more viewers, individually for their news programming than Fox News. Far more. Fox has a fixed, conservative audience that often only watches Fox News. Here's an article that might shake up your estimates: https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/how-many-people-actually-watch-fox-news-in-america.html/ How Many People Actually Watch Fox News in America? It’s hard to discuss cable-news viewership without Fox News ratings entering the conversation. Before long, you’ll hear how the network is the most watched on cable, about its hold on news audiences, and how influential it is with the president (himself a frequent TV watcher). In fact, when MSNBC managed to top Fox News in the ratings late in 2018, it became a story in its own right. The network boasted how it posted its best performance against Fox in nearly two decades, with Rachel Maddow leading the charge. But it can be revealing to learn just how many viewers watch these networks get on a nightly basis — and how they compare to legacy stations like NBC, ABC, and CBS. Once you dig into the numbers, the amount of people actually watching Fox News on a nightly basis might sound small. {snip} In the third quarter of 2018, ABC World News Tonight averaged over 8 million viewers, or more than three times the number of viewers taking in Fox News during prime time. NBC Nightly News (7.5 million viewers in Q3) also tripled the audiences measured by Nielsen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin_dry Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 A very small percentage of the population watch any of the cable news channels. It’s simply too disturbing for normal human beings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Jimmy Snacks Posted May 20, 2019 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 20, 2019 I like Dana Perino as well as Bill Hemmer....they are very fair and measured plus no hostility and arrogance from them like you see on MSNBC and CNN.

That’s complete bullshit but we know you like to be edgy so..........it’s so de rigeur to trash Fox, or Rush or any other popular conservative news and opinion sources, all the useful idiots have already filled up that band wagon. So I don’t need that kind of phony and ass backwards justification in my life. You guys keep hating on them and they’ll keep growing their influence and credibility despite your efforts to delegitimize them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox News isn’t responsible for the right wing mass indoctrination of Americans? Could it be Americans turned on left wing ideologies all on their own????? holy shit , this is blowing my mind. All this time I have been blaming Fox News for poisoning the minds of Americans, and turns out people are figuring out Hillary is a cunt all on their own. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodtick Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I’ve been watching CBS local news a few time a week. It seems to be a little less fake and less drama. Fox is getting as stupid as CNN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox is getting as stupid as CNN. Thats the thing. Watch what you want, hopefully from multiple sources and alternate viewpoints. Draw your own conclusions. Wall Street Journal is really good for a daily read, that covers most everything, has both sides, and down the middle as well. 1 hour ago, spin_dry said: Does rush still have his motto, “I’ll tell you how to think”?

Guest Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I believe Hannity has a " hot line " to the White House. That's why I think Hillary and crew will eventually face some serious shit. As I said before, it's gonna' take some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
