MSNBC Lost Half Its Primetime Audience Since the Election

MSNBC celebrated its scores triumph over CNN the day after the election. For the first time in history did MSNBC surpass CNN in scores for election day. &nbsp,

I’m not exactly certain what they might have been celebrating. On election day, Fox News defeated both network, capturing more than 10 million viewers and earning 6 million and 5 million from CNN.

However, after the vote, ratings for both CNN and MSNBC cratered. Next Thursday, while Fox gathered 2.6 million ears in night, MSNBC managed an crowd of less than 600, 000, only 71, 000 in the desired 25-54 video. CNN brought in an uncomfortable 419, 000.

Fox News increased by 60 % from last year’s same day, while MSNBC lost 40 % of viewers. Prime day was even worse. In comparison to last year, the radical left network lost 53 % of people.

Fox News:

A former TV news executive who requested anonymity claimed that during his first administration, the audience’s dislike of Trump did n’t seem to be present. &nbsp, &nbsp,

” As its weak post-election day scores show, MSNBC should never expect a’ Trump Bump’ this time around. The long-time TV news executive said that even liberals are opposed to Joy Reid’s condescending firmness and the group’s contentious rhetoric.

MSNBC had very little to honor, according to NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck.

Houck told Fox News Digital,” While MSNBC thought they may have won with the election day scores, they may have realized that Americans were just watching the breakdowns because they thought it was consistently and intellectually stimulating tv,” Houck said. &nbsp,

It’s accurate. As the day progressed, I was watching them star as Trump’s political vote count increased and they were denied entry.

It’s probably best if MSNBC does n’t look at their ratings any time soon if they want to stay anywhere close to their happy place because they were falling behind reruns of” Golden Girls” and” Peppa Pig” in previous years,” Houck said. ” Democratic people have to be physically, psychologically, and figuratively distraught. They’re beyond dejected”.

Houk does n’t anticipate that leftists will soon make a comeback.

The gloomy justifications that the scorching results deserve appear to be temporary solutions to the searing results, from working-class ladies to Hispanic men to traditional media. It’s a sour item no one will want to talk to going ahead because Chris Hayes and Alex Wagner have a product to undertake to, which the departed will only have to change if they move even further left, Houck said. &nbsp,

MSNBC viewers Sharon Waxman, chairman of TheWrap, a Hollywood business release, says the press “got it bad” and she wants to take a break from watching the news.

” If you’re like me, you have n’t turned on the news since last Tuesday when Donald Trump won the election. Personally, I ca n’t bear to listen to another minute of wisdom from Joy Reid, my friend Lawrence O’Donnell, or the admirable Rachel Maddow”, Waxman wrote. &nbsp,

” I ca n’t do it”, Waxman continued. ” I’m never saying I’ll not see or hear again. But – am I only here? – Listening to more twaddle from the same claptrapping apparatus causes my whole system to sag.

Waxman was perplexed by the criticism of Trump from his legal views to his “bad works” and his subsequent “bad works” not to convince citizens.

” None of it landed, it appears. Obviously we are talking to ourselves”.

Real dat.
