Fox News Channel beats MSNBC, CNN combined in weekly viewership

[Ransom]

FNC’s 8-11 p.m. ET lineup of “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” “Hannity,” “The Ingraham Angle” and “Fox News @ Night with Shannon Bream” averaged 2.6 million viewers, compared to 1.5 million for MSNBC and just 832,000 for CNN. The period of Oct. 8-14 marks the second straight week that FNC topped MSNBC and CNN combined during prime time.

The jam-packed news week featured Kanye West’s White House visit, the swearing-in ceremony of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and a variety of midterm elections content. Fox News finished behind only the Major League Baseball-heavy TBS during prime time, ranking No. 2 among all of basic cable for the week for total viewers. ESPN, MSNBC, Hallmark Channel, HGTV, USA, Fox Sports 1, TLC and Discovery joined the Top 10, while CNN finished No. 14.

MSNBC nearly double the 832,000 for CNN. Reckon Cuomo ain't lighting no fires for CNN, he's not entertaining, he's a total hack. 2.6 million for Fox.....832k for CNN. Fox...more than 3 times more viewers? Got some 4.2m viewers total there, Fox has 2.6m. I'd call that dominating your market share.

That's a sad reflection of our society actually.

It's like saying Auschwitz killed more people than the next 3 camps combined.

Yeah. It's like saying that.

An Auschwitz analogy, the comment mostly about how poor CNN does.

Decaf Captain, they do make it.

Bourbon, thanks

MSM on both sides of the political spectrum... wait, just stating that media is on either side of the political spectrum should be an ice bucket challenge to you if you consider yourself a free thinker wanting unbiased news, but to continue my point, the MSM herds, gathers, corrals.

Journalism is dead, all we have lately is propaganda and if you prefer Nazi propaganda over any of the other equally misleading, influential forms of it then you're still digesting propaganda.

For a short period MSNBC was beating fox and cnn was narrowing it, they have utterly totally FLOPPED and are no further behind. Shows that people even democrats dont buy their bullshit

Young people don't watch TV. Fox New's audience is older than most. The median viewer is around 66.

No Common Sense. Here in America, CNN is on in airports. Restaurants. Bars. Got my car serviced the other day at my local dealership.....CNN playing in the lounge.

Young people drinking the koolaid. The entire morning droning on about Saudi Arabia, you'd think Trump had killed this 'reporter.' Then the Stormy Daniels story just another that has blown up in their face. Remember the campaign finance violations, the lawsuits, the lawyer the media brought in repeatedly, CNN discussing the irony of after all this monumental Russia and obstruction probes, a porn star would bring 'Donald Trump' down.

But I do agree tv isn't the only source and young people stream news. Or get it from where most of the Left leaning Members here in tpf get their info. Facebook.

Not to them. To them it's advertising dollar revenues. Your product is going to be seen during the commercials on Fox News by 2.6 million viewers. On CNN, your commercial is seen by less than a million. Now gee....wonder who I want to give money to in order for them to sell my product? General Motors, Dell, from Geico Lizard to the We are Farmers, it makes a yuge difference, donttread.

And it's got to cut deep in the dragon's lairs of CNN that Fox News had triple the audience. That cannot sit well.

My only point was that Fox's viewers are generally older and that young people are watching less television. Millennials are getting their news and entertainment from the internet and streaming. Some studies have suggested that as few as 45% of them watch or own TVs...in Canada and the US.

And if a Common Sense knows this, would a CNN or Fox News network executive know that as well. Seems you've got right around 5 million folk watching news at night. I'm watching Mookie Betts who just got hit by a pitch, he's the Red Sox first batter.

Anyway. Should CNN maybe change it's lineup, Cuomo a more serious appeal to 'older' viewers perhaps? All three networks are going for the same audience, targeting those watching tv....and 5 million is a bunch of customers for advertisers. A mean...a bunch. Older probably means more $ too. A home owned to spend on. Insurance needs. Health care. Cars.

All 3 know their audience. All 3 run endless tests and demographics and try to get those viewers to tune in. Fox News obviously dominating that market.

Come on lets not pretend that Fox is the only one spinning....... CNN, MSNBC, every media outlet spins now, right or left, there is no real just news outlets any more. They are all opinion outlets and they are all slanted.....

It's simple, really. Regular folks are disgusted with the media. Except Fox viewers, they never get disgusted. They are disgusting to begin with. 2.6 million viewers is about right, that is less than 14% of the population of America. That also happens to fit the ballpark figures for the number of insane Trump worshippers. The other 86% of the population is more intelligent. As evidenced by the MSM dropped numbers.

For someone that has the screen name of common sense everytime you post you prove you have none. It must be like when a big fat guy has the nickname tiny.

That argument can be made but that has nothing to do with the quality of their reporting. That would be a different topic.
