CNN Fake News™ is on life support - CNN Ratings Down 41 Percent from Last Year

[OneHungLo]

Bankruptcy on deck

Last week, CNN dropped a full 41 percent in the daytime TV ratings and fell 36 percent in primetime compared to the same week last year.
AdWeek reports, “CNN ranked No. 6 across basic cable in total prime time viewers, and No. 5 in total day this past week. Despite the top 10 finishes, the network was -36 percent in prime time viewers, and -41 percent in total day viewers vs. the same week last year.”

Not only did CNN see a devastating drop from last year’s ratings, the network was once again bested by its competitors. Fox News came in first place with during the day, while MSNBC came in second.

In basic cable, CNN was in fifth behind ESPN and Nickelodeon. During prime time, CNN slid down to sixth place while ESPN came in first. Fox News, MSNBC, HGTV, and the USA network all defeated CNN.

The network has repeatedly seen embarrassing viewership losses compared to 2017. In August, the network lost 12 percent of its primetime viewers compared to 2017.

During one week in August, the network dropped 23 percent during the day and 24 percent in primetime compared to the same week last year.

The ratings slide isn’t the only recent embarrassment for CNN.

This week, it was announced that reporter Jim Sciutto would begin co-hosting a morning program for the network, despite the fact that Sciutto had recently made serious errors and was a key figure in CNN’s ongoing fake news scandal over their misreporting of a story about Michael Cohen’s knowledge of a Trump Tower meeting with Russians.

Jeffrey Toobin, an analyst for CNN, also humiliated the network further recently by falsely blaming Antifa violence on black Americans.

Indeed Breitbart is not the best source but you just have to watch the CNN drivel ( once my most popular station) to come to the same conclusion.

Their fall was expected since the idiot Jeff Zuker who used to run NBC, essentially elected Trump by great coverrage and ratings in 2015/16, and now reaping what he has sown. Anti Trump single issue TV is not as popular...Then throw in other losers....Bourdain, Lisa Lang, Kamu Bell and you have dug up your own grave...

World can go to "the pits" yet the idiot will only cover one topic for days on end. Ted Turner please come back

Hey OnHungLo, Question for you:

Let's say you had a product to sell and you want to buy adverting on TV. Who would you trust to give you ratings? Adweek or Brietbart?

August 2018 Ratings: CNN Has Its Second-Best August Ever

Fox News and MSNBC may be getting headlines for being the two-most-watched networks on basic cable, but CNN held its own in August 2018.

First, it ranked as a top 10 basic cable network in total viewers, during prime time and across the 24-hour day.

Second, CNN defeated MSNBC this past month in adults 25-54. That’s not out of the ordinary across the 24-hour day, but it is out of the ordinary in prime time. However, it happened in August, with CNN averaging 346,000 A25-54 viewers that month vs. MSNBC’s 340,000 A25-54 viewer average. It’s the first time CNN has defeated MSNBC in the prime time demo since Sept. 2017.

the only thing on life support is Chump's presidency

[Robbie]

CNN has been a joke for a while now. Starting back when they "covered" Anna Nicole Smith's death 24/7 and the subsequent child custody battle for her daughter 24/7 and there was NO other news in the world during that time.

Then they did it again with the Malaysian Airline disappearance. Even President Obama zinged them about that ridiculous coverage during one of the Press dinners.

And now...CNN is just off the rails. All pretense of un-biased news reporting is gone.
Everything is reported as "Democrats are Great!" and ANYBODY remotely associated with the President is either an Evil Genius or a complete fool. Or both. And definitely they are all criminals.

And Syria? Doesn't appear to exist anymore on CNN. The entire Middle East or the war on terror? Gone.
There is NOTHING but Trump 24/7

Here's a newsflash for all of you who only watch MSNBC or CNN or only look at their websites:
All the breathlessness over Manafort getting a plea deal for his tax evasion from over a decade ago is a distraction.
The REAL story that is happening is a Grand Jury has convened for Andrew McCabe and also President Trump is about to bring the hammer down by un-classifying the FISA warrants that were used against his campaign by the Obama Administration to spy on them.

You won't hear that on television. But CNN did at least BURY it in their website a few days ago about the Grand Jury:
https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/07/polit...ury/index.html

The falsification and use of the fake dossier to obtain FISA court wiretaps is a REAL CRIME. Not some feverish made-up nonsense in your heads.

Shit is about to hit the fan on the deep state.

This is what is truly comical about these guys going off day in and day out about "more evidence against Trump" stuff.

The exact opposite is happening every single day. The FBI, DOJ, Clinton Campaign, Obama White House etc are all being exposed for actual crimes.... and they seem to be oblivious to it. This willful ignorance and obliviousness of the actual facts are what led to a Trump Presidency to begin with.

The stuff that Judicial Watch uncovers every week through FOIA requests is truly horrific at times.

I love this "investigation". It is building up to the very purge the entire US Government needs and the funniest thing is that Trump didn't have to do it to them, they end up doing it to themselves. They are literally draining themselves from the swamp. It's beautiful.

A single page that proves conclusively that no one on the Left actually cares about the truth, facts or rule of law.

All they care about is who is and who isn't obeying the narrative... and woe to those who don't obey.... because as always, the end justifies the means.

Funny how no one cares about the high ranking Senator that actually employed a Chinese spy for 20 years.... Interesting that never comes up. I mean, being that everyone cares so much about foreign influence in politics and all...
