REPOST - - Cable News Ratings Friday May 12: CNN Prime Time Viewership Drops Below Newsmax

WOW!  Turn out CNN has fallen to 4th place AND BELOW NEWSMAX in Cable TV News Viewership!  Below is a repost from Mediaite.  Fox News is still easily #1 - but it has taken a viewership hit since cancelling Tucker Carlson.

CNN prime time dropped on Friday to 335,000 average total viewers from 8 to 11 p.m, coming below right-wing channel Newsmax, which scored 357,000 average prime time viewers.

The ratings-beleaguered network landed in fourth place in prime time, also behind Fox News and MSNBC, which averaged 1.44 million and 1.08 million total average viewers in prime time — respectively.

In the key 25-54 age demographic, CNN did a bit better with 87,ooo average viewers. Fox led with 109,000 and MSNBC was in second with 98,000 average demo viewers. Newsmax, meanwhile, averaged 45,000 prime time demo viewers.

After 8 p.m. on Friday night, no CNN show rated above 300,000 viewers and Newsmax beat the network from 8 to p.m. Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace at 10 p.m. marked its lowest-rated hour since it launched on the network and dropped 25 percent since its Friday debut.

Here is a full breakdown of Friday’s cable news ratings by show:

Perhaps you are proud of the incompetent method of departure from Afghanistan or the encouragement of the " little incursion " into Ukraine by Putin of Russia.
You spew lie after lie after lie every night of your career.
You are a tool in the hands of democrats & do their bidding all the time. Yes, Trump calls some nasty women "nasty", but you call half the country derogatory names & smear & dehumanize them ! Trump is neither racist or antisemitic as you falsely try to portray him.
It is disturbing to watch you spin the truth time & time again !
Where were you, hypocrite, con man when all summer 2020 democrat leaning groups were burning & looting & rioting & destroying the police & law enforcement groups ?
Are you now concerned about assaults on police officers ?
You're the one who constantly lies shamelessly & disparaged the audience & at least half the population for their reaction. Kaitlan Collins was not a journalist but a shameless "prosecutor" & partisan hack with an agenda to demean & vilify Donald Trump.
She failed & then you were instructed by your masters to spin the event even more & tell us what we " heard" & what we should think !
And suppose that everything we see on Fox, or ANY OTHER new station is Fake? Do you really think that Fox News stages all those lines of Illegal’s? Do they stage the Mobs of them sleeping in tents and defecating in the streets?
The lawless Border Crisis it is NOT fake, or should trust the Democratic Party and ignore common sense and what our own eyes see!.
It is a calculated move by Biden & the democrats & the DNC to let in as many million illegal migrants into the country as possible
The man leading this corrupt & fraudulent
effort is Department of Homeland Security Secretary, Mayorkas.
Mayorkas looks you straight in the eye & lies & says the border is secure and under control.
He does so even when testifying under oath in the Congress . He just outright lies !
The Videos that they show are full of chaos and lack of order.
Millions have illegally been let go unchecked into the country !
This illegal entry is phase one of the conspiracy.
And how about the Biden Family’s corruption? Are those Bank Records ALL Russian Disinformation, like the idiotic Politicians want us to believe AGAIN? You can keep telling yourselves that, but don’t expect us to believe it as well!
Just Imagine being a Democrat and having to PRETEND that Joe Biden is Competent, Hillary Clinton is Innocent, and Barrack Obama Did A Good Job! What a Great Liar You would have to be.
