Ratings Collapse: CNN Now Losing To Nick-At-Nite In Prime Time Ratings War
The Federalist ^ | July 6, 2017 | The Federalist Staff

Posted on 07/06/2017 5:17:31 PM PDT by Rockitz

Last week, more Americans tuned in to watch re-runs of “Yogi Bear,” “Full House,” and “Friends” on Nick At Nite than to watch Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon’s shows on CNN.

According to cable ratings from the week of June 26-July 2, CNN’s viewership of its primetime shows was ranked significantly lower than its competitors like Fox News and MSNBC, which place first and second respectively. Clocking in at No. 10 on the list, CNN fell behind HGTV, Nick At Nite, History Channel, and ESPN — the sports network that’s been hemorrhaging viewers for months.

CNN’s ratings nosedive corresponds with the network’s ongoing feud with President Donald Trump. Last week, Trump tweeted out a GIF of himself appearing to pummel a wrestler with CNN’s logo superimposed over the latter’s face. The network has covered the tweet nearly nonstop ever since. It also went after the Redditor who made the GIF and threatened to dox him unless he apologized and promised to never say anything CNN dislikes again — a move that drew much criticism and may have been illegal.

On July 4, CNN published a fake quote from Abraham Lincoln. On Thursday morning, the network falsely claimed German Prime Minister Angela Merkel had chosen the location of the G20 summit to sabotage Trump.

Their talking heads are trashing Trump over new Russian spying and refusing to admit Russia meddled in the election.

They’ve come to believe their own lies and basically you have liberals jerk circle interviewing each other to assure themselves of the vileness of Trump.

No news here.

.... re-runs of “Yogi Bear...
Yogi Bear on his worst day makes more sense than CNN, the rest of the alphabet networks, and Chuck Schumer/Pelosi democrats

CNN is basically the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party.

Its about as relevant to American life as Pravda was in the Soviet Union.

Although you cannot believe any of CNN’s “reporting” has anything to do with what Trump is actually doing.

Like Ahab was obsessed with Moby Dick, they’re obsessed with Trump. Fun to watch their decline.

It may actually be worth it to tune in to watch these fools turn on each other as they attempt to protect their own bloated salaries. That would be entertaining!

I used to watch the History Channel when they had documentaries on Egypt and Greece and stuff like that. I quit when they shifted to these fraudulent “reality” shows like Pawn Stars and the unbelievably boring Ice Road Truckers. Utter garbage tv. But it’s cheap to produce so other craphole stations like AandE are dominated by that horrid junk.

CNN? Never watched it. In fact I don’t think I’ve watched a a tv news show in 35 years. They are all lying propaganda shills for the globalists and their lackies in the deep state.

The new owners will certainly clean house and change the name...but what will the on-air people do. MSNBC has only so much money to work with.

Hey those Full House episodes are worth watching!

And who doesn't like "Friends"?! You get frazzled out at work. You come home. You want to unwind. No one in the right mind would subject themselves to the histrionics of CNN.

I’m a Hogan’s Heroes man myself. Don’t know if it’s on Nick at Nite, as I don’t have cable.
