President Trump’s rally on Saturday attracted a record-setting audience on TV despite the smaller-than-expected crowd in attendance at the Tulsa, Okla., event.
A whopping 7.7 million total viewers tuned into Fox News from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. EDT during Trump’s remarks, making it the most watched Saturday in the network’s history during that time period, according to early Nielsen data.
Trump’s rally also gave Fox News its largest Saturday night primetime audience ever from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Trump’s State of the Union address is the only telecast on Fox News in 2020 to outdraw the 9 p.m. hour of Trump’s speech on Saturday, which averaged 8.2 million total viewers.
By comparison, ESPN’s coverage of the NFL Draft’s opening night averaged 8 million, MSNBC’s most-watched Democratic primary debate averaged 7.7 million and CNN’s most-watched Democratic primary debate averaged 7.4 million.
The Trump campaign has stated that even more viewers tuned in when including the significant audience that watched via streaming platforms.
“President Trump’s rally in Tulsa attracted over 4 million unique viewers across all of the campaign’s digital media channels. The live-streamed pre-rally shows drew an audience of more than 2.5 million unique viewers by themselves,” Trump 2020 communications director Tim Murtaugh said in a statement.
Fox News’ YouTube stream picked up over 2.1 million views, while Fox Business Network’s livestream drew over 580,000. The rally was streamed on a variety of other platforms, as well.
Liberal pundits have labeled the rally a disappointment because of the in-person attendance figures – but the Trump campaign disagrees.

This is a kick in the stomach to those who were crowing here the other day about the empty seats in the upper deck.
Pfffttttt! Wait until the Rip VanBiden selects contestant rice to be the vp pick. They’ll have a 120 times the viewers.
Sooo, that is what? 240 viewers?
What? You don’t want to watch Hannity’s girlfriend in the morning?
Just joking with you!
I must’ve fallen back to sleep as it comes on at 3AM here.
:^)
I listened to Breitbart this morning and it was all over but the shouting. Alex Marlowe the host kept saying he hasn’t left Trump, but the president has lost his message, the crowd size was smaller that the million Trump bragged about,...blah, blah, blah
I made it about 30 minutes and bailed out. I wonder if XM Radio has real time listener data that the host can see when he’s turning people off.
RSBN had 6,000,000 TV viewers of the Trump speech. That is the largest TV Audience RSBN ever hosted in its history. When you add up all the Trump TV watchers...it comes up to between 20-25,000,000 people heard & saw Trumpie speak!!!
As for Joe Biden...stay tuned...rumors have it the Democrat National Committee is going to drag the old female hag horse in the barn, out to become the VP Choice of Biden. This way Hillary Clinton can become POTUS, when Biden is declared unfit to be POTUS as a result of illness!!!
Like I have said, so many times on this site...”Desperate People do Desperate things”!!!
AND-It’s impossible for the MSM to spin this into anything but exactly what it is...SUPPORT!
Well, I'm sure that he was disappointed. He had to cancel the outdoor part of the rally and several thousand couldn't get in due to the antics of Antifa & BLM people who were blocking the entrances & the metal detectors.
I'd have been disappointed, too. If people don't go in there before 4pm, they're liable to not get into these rallies in the future as Antifa & BLM will do this again.
I watched every minute.
Plus 4M online viewing!
Figured something was up with all the nay-saying DNCmedia news. ALWAYS watch it on RSBN or Fox(after-the-event)via youtube. Same with the pressers. It helps to avoid any commentary of BS talk by networks.
NewsMax did a great job too.
For giggles, google “Biden victory inevitable”.
So TRUE!
He's getting his message out to MILLIONS of Americans.
The HARVEST will be on NOV 3rd, 2020.
OANN is the only news channel we watch, and we like it.
Oooohhh, the liberal forces ain’t gonna like this!!!!
