CNN Loses to Fox News in Ratings Battle despite Hosting Debate

Hahahahaha
Despite hosting the most highly anticipated and pivotal presidential debate in recent history, CNN failed to draw the expected viewerships, losing out to Fox News, which wasn’t even hosting the debate.
The ratings battle between the two networks should have been in CNN’s favor. However, even after demanding social media companies limit streams and censor conservative news sites, forcing people to watch the debate on CNN, they still lost.
Nielsen Fast National data revealed that Fox News drew 8.8 million viewers, slightly edging out CNN’s 8.7 million, while MSNBC trailed with 3.97 million viewers.
The rating embarrassment comes amid Joe Biden‘s performance during the debate, as critics, media talking heads, and Democrats fell into a panic after the president’s cognitive issues were laid bare for all to see.
Doubts about the 81-year-old incumbent’s fitness to serve another four-year term have now caused an itnernal flip out within the party, as many are now calling for Biden to be replaced.
CNN’s John King reported that there was a sense of panic among senior Democrats about Biden’s performance.

That’s pretty embarrassing for CNN considering Fox is a shell of itself and they still beat CNN

I'm as conservative as you can get but FOX News is just crap....as a news source. It's a tabloid and I think it honestly is not very conservative. That being said, CNN is just a dumpster fire of institutional leftism so I don't cry one tear for them. But we could do better than AP newswire Newsmax and Fox/NY Post News

The one thing I told my elderly father I wish he would have done was NOT watch it on CNN..
I am convinced many older Americans believed they had to tune into CNN to watch the debate.

I actually really like Mark Lavin's weekend show.
I usually like Laura Ingram's Opening Monologue, then I usually bounce
Usually around 10:00, Ingram's and Hannity's monologues are uploaded at the same time so I can hit those up back to back and bounce
Jessie Waters annoys me for some reason. I like the dude but I feel like he talks down to me - I don't know it's just weird. He just seems like his shite doesn't stink and way too Bill O'Reilly to me.
Hannity - I don't know WTF is going on with him. I know he's getting older and has probably lost a little pep in his step, but he just sounds so fricking depressed these days.
I have heard many times that he really envy's what Megyn and Tucker and them are doing. Like that is kind of his dream to do his own thing like them, but he is stuck at FOX with his huge contract that he can't get out of.
Gutfeld - I usually last about the first 15 minutes then bounce
I do not care much for The Five
During the day, I just keep FOX on as background noise when I work at the computer

Get a firestick, download the Rumble app and use Real America Voice Live Stream as your background. You can thank me later.

CNN’s John King
He’s the best thing about CNN. Him and their graphics department. CNN has the cleanest graphics package.

After the debate I actually kept it on CNN because I wanted to see how they were going to try and spin the Biden Dumpster Fire.
Even they couldn’t explain away that disaster. It was fantastic TV

I highly suggest turning bongino on the radio for 3 hours a day.
Entertaing and extremely more informative than any TV show.

And yet I'm sure FN got the low rung advertisers. Advertisers should be called out for their anti-Consevatives bias.

It was some of the best TV I've seen in a long time. I watched the debate on Fox then immediately started flipping back and forth between CNN and MSNBC. Seeing all those frickheads go from "Biden is sharp as a tack!" to "Biden has got to go!" in 90 minutes was amazing

That's heckin awesome

Fox and every other news channel also showed the debate.

I use the TuneIn app on pc and phone to listen to local talk radio about 1/week. My current local radio station is a Fox affiliate so it’s Moon Griffon, Bongino, Hannity, then Levin. Early morning, nights, and weekends there is no telling what will be on though

I listen to Bongino every day. He’s my all time favorite
I was just talking about my Fox News viewing habits (which is not a lot)
