“ CNN’s ratings took a nosedive by a massive 90 percent both overall and in the all-important demographic coveted by advertisers in the first week of the new year.
The Jeff Zucker-led cable news network averaged just 548,000 viewers during the week of Jan. 3 — a major drop from the nearly 2.7 million viewers for the same week in 2021, according to Nielsen ratings.
The year-ago ratings were jolted by the left-leaning network’s coverage of the Jan. 6 attack on the US Capitol, which resulted in CNN having its most-watched day since Ted Turner launched the news outlet in 1980.
But on the one-year anniversary of the attacks, viewers flipped over to CNN’s right-wing rival, Fox News, which topped the ratings for coverage of the event.”

I think like a lot of people I see them at the airport or when someone on another channel plays something insane one of their remaining hosts just said. Clay Travis just pointed out in the radio Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity have more democrats watching than cnn’s prime time lineup.
Politico cites two unnamed sources who say Chris Cuomo’s legal team is who brought it the romance to the surface in negotiations for the ousted host’s severance pay.
