With a total average viewership of 2.224 million in primetime, Fox News outperformed competitor networks MSNBC and CNN. CNN had its lowest-rated prime-time week ever, both in terms of overall viewers and the key demo, with none of the network’s programming attracting an engagement of more than one million watchers, which has long been considered a barometer of prime-time success. Fox News had a significant lead over CNN, with 268 percent of CNN’s peak time viewership for the week.
In total, Fox had 98 of the top 100 most-watched telecasts of the week, with FNC’s The Five once again capturing the title of highest-rated cable news show despite airing outside of peak time, when viewing is typically strongest, per report.
Tucker Carlson Tonight, Jesse Watters Primetime (2.464 million viewers) Hannity (2.654 million viewers), & Special Report with Bret Baier (2.375 million viewers) all had an average total audience of 3.237 million viewers.
