American tuned out... News engagement plummetted.
https://www.axios.com/2022/07/12/news-media-readership-ratings-2022Cable viewership across the three major cable news networks — CNN, Fox News and MSNBC — is, on average, down 19% in prime time for the first half of this year compared to the first half of 2021. However the details explained CNN down 47% MSNBC down 33%, respectively.
Fox's ratings are up 12% in that six-month span. I wonder why they lumped it all together and claimed viewership down 19% when it's the Leftie/Demmie leaning MSM that are taking a tank. Must be some Lefties/Demmies watching that 'evil' channel FOX
The pre-pandemic comparison for cable news viewership also shows a drop, with numbers for the three major cable news networks in primetime down 15% in the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2019.Again, detail shows Fox News is up slightly, but MSNBC and CNN are down 16% and 35%, respectively.
Here's what Axios claimed is causing this slide...
"Americans have grown exhausted from the constant barrage of bad headlines..." - Hmmm... if that was the case, FOX would also plummeted too. However they did not...
I think it's because of the fake disinformation, race mongering, Trump bashing, Brandon protecting BS pushed from these two Left leaning media that's making people sick of them and tuning out. Heck more Leftie/Demmies and Independent watches FOX prime time than CNN. Only MSNBC has a slightly higher percentage of Leftie/Demmie tuning in than they are to FOX.
