SHOCKER: Fox News Ratings Tank as Network Falls Behind Both CNN and MSNBC

Due in large part to the non-stop coverage of Trump’s missteps and perceived misdeeds, CNN and MSNBC have overtaken Fox.

Wall-to-wall coverage of the ongoing — and rapidly evolving — crises in the Trump White House again caused the typical cable news rankings to shift. Tuesday marked a second night at No. 3 for once-infallible Fox News Channel, as CNN snuck in for a primetime demo win over also-surging MSNBC.

It may just be a case of bad timing for Fox, as they settle into a new primetime lineup that relies heavily on Tucker Carlson, who has taken over O’Reilly’s time slot. It’s interesting to note that Rachel Maddow, the smirking MSNBC host, is winning her time slot among adults aged 25-54, with an average of 829,000 viewers.

    With all due respect to RedState, Fox is not right-leaning. Not even “fair and balanced” as its motto claims. At various times, whoever shelled out the most money controlled the content. In 2012, it was the Republican establishment in order to force Romney on us. Trump probably controlled the narrative during the last presidential campaign. And in between, the Saudis have or have had a share in the company.

    All of these networks — Fox, CNN, MSNBC — could disappear and I won’t care.

    I agree. Hardly “right leaning”. I stopped watching them years ago. In fact I don’t watch any TV news. I get everything I need online from multiple sources. Left-leaning, right leaning and in-between. Then I make up my own mind.
