The bad news is that CNN continues to post more significant year-over-year losses than its competitors, and finished a distant third place behind Fox News and MSNBC in prime time. The network ranked No. 13 across basic cable in total prime time audience.
Compared to its July 2018 performance, CNN was -11% in total prime time viewers, -13% in total day viewers, -32% in the prime time demo, and -32% in the total day demo this month.
I used to watch CNN quite regularly, and even leave it on as background sometimes. I'm talking like 8-10 hours a day on the days when I'm home. In the last 2 months thats probably been reduced to 15-30 minutes per day.
CNN used to have the veneer of credibility when everyone recognized FOX as beholden to the Republican party and MSNBC to the Democratic party. This was all thrown out of the window in the 2016 election - first exposing CNN leaking debate questions to HRC through Donna Brazile, their shrill coverage of DJT, pushing of conspiracy theories (like RussiaGate), and sowing racial animosity between Whites and minorities.
The thing is, MSNBC already had a head start on them. People who want objective news will go elsewhere.
CNN is a joke, but no different from NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, NYT, Washpo, etc.
