Newsmax eclipses CNN

Just The News

CNN’s prime time viewership fell below that of Newsmax last week, marking a significant drop in the network’s ratings after it hosted a town hall event with former President Donald Trump that earned the ire of its largely left-leaning viewer base.

On Friday, the network brought in an average of 335,000 total viewers between 8 and 11 p.m., more than 20,000 below the right-wing Newsmax, which claimed 357,000 average viewers, according to Mediaite. Both significantly trailed the top two networks of Fox and MSNBC, which claimed 1.44 million and 1.08 million average prime time viewers, respectively.

CNN did outperform Newsmax among viewers aged 25-54, earning 87,000 average viewers to the other’s 45,000.

The drop in CNN ratings comes the same week that the network enjoyed a major ratings boost last Wednesday night, during which time it hosted former President Donald Trump at a town hall event.

  1. Only 25k viewers aged 25-54? Hmmm.. I’m betting that count for key demo doesn’t include streaming cause that’s where most of them are. CNN doesn’t offer a free stream unless you’re sitting in an airport or waiting room and quite literally forced to watch it or the unidentified gender purple hair across from you with crazy eyes.
