CNN’s Jake Tapper sees 75% of his audience flee

American Thinker:

By Monica Showalter

‘Get woke, go broke’ has cut many a corporate profit. But for CNN’s top newsman, Jake Tapper, the specter of 75% of his audience tuning out is starting to look literal.

According to Fox News:

CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper” has shed a staggering 75% of its audience since the liberal network experienced a January spike in viewers. 

Tapper’s program averaged 2.8 million viewers in January but settled for only 706,000 in the 4 p.m. ET timeslot from May 31 through June 23, losing three-quarters of its audience in the process. Tapper’s second-quarter viewership is down 49% compared to the first quarter. 

The audience keeps moving and moving away from him. Which must be humiliating for Jake, given that one of his CNN rivals, Brian Stelter, recently became a for losing a mere 72% of his audience. Ted Koppel has been grossing out since 2018 and all that Stelter ever does is go lower.

But Jake has lost more, even though Jake is better-known and doesn’t have some of Stelter’s “disadvantages.” Stelter in fact is one of the yuckiest guys on the air, not just less photogenic than Jake, but prone to doing gross stuff, such as posing pantless as if he were on the toilet for viewers’ edification. CNN in general is a laggard’s laggard, lagging even the laggards in lagging market. But nobody seems to have as many lost viewers as Jake. more here

  1. I met a guy from Vietnam who told me that Koppel leapt on a helicopter that was evacuating wounded during a fire fight. He refused to get off until this guy put his pistol to Koppel’s head and told him he would kill him if he didn’t get off.
    Koppel got off.

    Gutless, whining, shitweasels.
    Why anyone would listen to them is a mystery.

  2. Fake Crapper has aged DRASTICALLY BAD since PRESIDENT Trump won the first time. The Trump Effect is a real thing!

    But no one at CNN is bleeding more out of his ass than Don Lemon! See what I did there? 🙃

  3. Don’t discount that some conservative hate Stelter that they may be tuning in to see the Idiot Make an Ass of Himself.

    I sometimes watch him the same way I watched Rachel MadCow deny the Navy Hospital Ship’s Arrival as it was docking.

    Stelter is like watching a train wreck.

  4. The ironic thing about Trump being banned on many media platforms is that there is nothing for MSM to talk about. There is No Fuel to create outrage and get eyes on Reaction Type stories.

    Biden gets beach balls for questions rather than softballs and we already know he likes chocolate chocolate chip ice cream.

    I can only watch Stelter if Mark Dice is doing the voiceover. And I’m worried that Stelter would break out his Pennywise smile if I were watching.
