Over tofu turkey, the powers behind the extreme-left cable news network MSNBC must have expressed many thanks yesterday for CNN, because it is only by comparison to CNN that MSNBC’s November ratings are not embarrassing. Compared to November of last year, MSNBC’s viewership has nearly been cut in half and the “Lean Forward” network continues to get crushed by Fox News.
MSNBC:
Primetime (Mon-Sun): 645,000 Total Viewers / 190,000 A25-54
Total Day (Mon-Sun): 401,000 Total Viewers / 124,000 A25-54
Fox News:
Primetime (Mon-Sun): 2,011,000 total viewers / 348,000 A25-54
Total Day Mon-Sun): 1,201,000 total viewers / 248,000 A25-54
In total viewers, Fox News beats MSNBC by nearly 3-to-1. In the advertiser-coveted 25-54 demo, the ratio is closer to 2-to-1.
Compared to November of last year (a presidential election year), MSNBC is down 45% in total day viewers and 50% during primetime. Fox is down only 21% and 18%, respectively.
In the 25-54 demo, MSNBC is down 52% in total day compared to last year, and 57% during primetime. Fox news is down 30% and 41%, respectively.
CNN is a rolling disaster.
