CNN And MSNBC Ratings CRASH · Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show!

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: MSNBC ratings crater as viewers at tune out Trump victory coverage. Well,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: you can understand, I mean why they would not be
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: watching after the election because they had been told that
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Kamala was going to win. They had they had been
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: told over and over and over again that Kamala was
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: going to win. There's no way that Trump could win it.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: He's so evil, everybody hates him so much. They were
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: totally caught off guard and it just too painful for
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: them to watch.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Probably, but.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: MSNBC sawts audience crater on Thursday and Friday, just days
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: after the left of center network beat CNN in election
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: night ratings for the first time ever. Thursday's total average
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: daily viewers on Fox News came in at two point
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: six million and three point three hundred and seventy five thousand,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: three hundred and seventy five thousand in the coveted twenty
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: five to fifty four age demographic. So Fox is actually
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: kicking MSNBC's and CNN's ass in that coveted demo. Meanwhile,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: MSNBC brought in only five hundred and ninety six total
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: viewers and seventy one one thousand in the demo CNN
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: brought in four hundred and nineteen thousand total viewers on
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Thursday and ninety one thousand viewers in the demo. So
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: this is the Thursday after the election. I think a
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: part of it is just the I think disillusionmentt probably
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: because if they were watching CNN and MSNBC, they thought
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: that worse, They thought it was going to be close.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: They did not see a total takeover, a Trump takeover House, Senate,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: popular vote, electoral College vote.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: They did not see that coming.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: That would have been a total shock to them because
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: they'd been kept in in illusion by the narrative controllers,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: by the teleprompter readers. They had no idea, no idea
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: there was even any possibility that it would go the
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: way that it did.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: So you can see how maybe just I mean.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Obviously a lot of Kala supporters, a lot of leftists.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Did not take it well already.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, they just went into immediately hysterical mental illness,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: but also too just going. Does some portion just get
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: really disillusioned with their new sources. They're trusted new sources,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: the people they were told were the only ones they
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: could trust. It everybody else is lying, especially those evil people,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: those evil right wingers and social media. If you're watching,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: if you're watching my show, you weren't shocked that Trump won.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: And I said, I took you through the data. I
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: took you through the poles. I showed you the polling
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: errors in twenty sixteen twenty twenty. I showed you what
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the polls are now. I showed you who are the
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: most accurate pollsters and what they were saying. So I
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: and by the way, I didn't say that Trump had
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: it in the bag. I said, if the polling error
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: in aggregate holds from twenty sixteen to twenty twenty, then
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: it's an easy win for Trump. I also said that
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: the what showing you said nothing about shadow cut campaigns
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: or fort fasan or giant you know, three hundred you know,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: three hundred thousand dollars vote dumps at three thirty, three
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: thirty in the morning in Pennsylvania or some other swing state.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: But if those if those number, if the errors in
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: polling and the aggregate polling held, then it would be
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: a walkover for TRUMPET should be pretty easy. But the
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: MSNBC viewers, the see and n viewers, I had just
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: been fed just an utter load of total lies in
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: gibberish for the most part.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I mean they CNN.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: I will say, there's a couple of clips of them
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: bringing up some morning signs, right there were there were
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: a few clips of them bringing up some some warning
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: signs in terms of you know, how people feel about
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: the economy for instance, and that being at a very
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: very low number of approval for the direction of the economy.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: But obviously their viewers were expecting a Kamala win. And
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: there's a reason why it called narrative control. But see
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Fox News was up some sixty percent or over year
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: for the day. Again, people you know who who weren't disappointed,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: who didn't want to just turn away from the world
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: because it was all just too painful. I mean, if
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you're winning, you want to celebrate. You want to look
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: at the people on Fox New celebrating. I can see that.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: But still it's pretty striking by how much though, isn't it.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Fox News was up some sixty percent year over year
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: for the day, while MSNBC and CNN were down twenty
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: three and forty percent, respectively. So MSNBC down twenty three
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: so it's almost one in four people didn't watch forty
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: percent for CNN in primetime.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: The news was even more.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Bleak for CNN and MSNBC as they shed thirty percent
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: and fifty four percent of their viewers fifty four percent
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: for MSNBC more than half. Wow, that's compared to the
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: same day last year. MSNBC host Alex Wagner had her
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: lowest rated show ever in terms of total viewers, while
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Chris Well Chris Hay Show brought in its worst numbers
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: in May of twenty sixteen. Well, that's what you get
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: for constantly lying. People stop trusting you. You give them expectations,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: and those expectations aren't met, they stop trusting you.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Let's see.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: On Friday seven, MSNBC programs recorded their lowest Friday ratings
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: for the year, as the network also saw its lowest
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: rated Friday primetime programming of the year outside of holiday weekends.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Post election.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Fox News averaged four point four million total viewers Wednesday
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: to Friday in primetime and seven hundred thousand viewers in
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the demo. MSNBC brought in eight hundred thousand total viewers,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: eight hundred and eight thousand total viewers for the same
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: period and ninety thousand demo viewers. So that's I mean
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: that's almost a tenth. That's a little over a tenth
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: see it. And meanwhile, saw six hundred and eleven thousand
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: total average primetime viewers and one hundred and fifty nine
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: thousand average demo viewers. So this is this is not
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: good for them at all. Let's take a look at
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: some charts here, so from Newsweek. Let's see number of
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: viewers here. This is for TV viewership numbers for the
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four elections. So this was hold on one second,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: So this was between seven pm Eastern and eleven am
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Eastern from election day to the next morning. Fox News
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: dominated nine point eight million, MSNBC a little over half
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: of that, five point five million, CNN four point seven million,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: So between MSNBC and CNN, I mean, that's actually a
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: little more than what Fox did. But that's two versus one,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: so not good for either of them, but very good
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: for Fox News, very good for Fox News. Let's take
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: a look at this. These are only up to twenty
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: twenty two, but I thought this was interesting because in
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: seasons twenty sixteen, now, this is this is average number
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: of TVs tuning to news programming during the primetime news
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: slot for CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC SO cutting the
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: cord as a trend. Obviously that's happening. That's hurting all networks,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: cable networks, regular TV networks, ABCNBC, all of those. But
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: let's take a look at the difference between these. So
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: here we've got MSNBC SO. In twenty sixteen average or
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the number of TVs, number of TVs tuning into news
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: programming during the prime time news slot nine hundred and
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: seventy five thousand, twenty twenty two had gone down to
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: eight hundred and twenty seven thousand. You can see there's
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: got a little bit of an increase for a few years,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: but then it goes sharply down and it's not good.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: CNN twenty sixteen, one point three million, CNN twenty twenty two,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: eight hundred and twenty eight thousand, that's a massive drop.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: That's a massive drop. Fox News one point.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Eight eight million, twenty sixteen, twenty twenty two, two point one.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: It's gone up. It's the only one that's gone up
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: of the three. So that tells you something. That tells
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: you something, doesn't it, And it looks like that trend
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: has continued. So what does it tell you, does it
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: tell you that they've just simply gone too far left.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I mean I showed you a clip in the last
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: dream of that lunatic on CNN. Oh no, sorry, it
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: was MSNBC. That lunatic on MSNBC, where who had an
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: absolute freak out because there was a conservative on the
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: panel talking about the election and what went wrong for
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: the Democrats and how you know, putting boys in girls
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: sports and that this the MSNBC contributor had an absolute
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: hissy fit on the set talking about I will sit
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: and listen for this transphobia. Maybe people don't want to see.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Maybe that's too far left. Maybe that's too far left.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Maybe what he's freaking out and being hysterical about is
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: actually a very moderate opinion, which is a point that
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: the other guy, the conservative, made I think quite well afterwards.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: But yeah, maybe that's got something to do with it.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Maybe Fox News is just more normal, Maybe it's actually
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: really moderate. Maybe it's not a far right, far right network.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, I've got my problems with Fox News.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I don't really watch it anymore, to be honest. After
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: at Tucker left, I kind of stop watching it. Maybe
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: a bit of Gutfeld every once in a while, but
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: when I do watch it, it's not I mean it
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: is actually I think the moderate network now see it.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: AT and MSNBC have crazy shit on it. Any network
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: that's a big fan of like sex changes for kids,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: not moderate. That's far left, that's radical, that's extreme. Fox
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: News is the moderate network now, regardless of all the
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: you know what the left may screech and scream about it. No, no,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: that's the moderate view.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Now. So what's what's going on here?
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Breaking CNN to layoff hundreds of staff on air personalities
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: via a report, let's see CNN is sit to kick
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: off around of post election layoffs that will affect hundreds
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: of employees in the company, including on air personalities. At
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: some point, you can just I think that they're just
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: teleprompter readers. They can just build a new star, right.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: None of them are really known when they start.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I think they know this.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Do they really need to pay Anderson Cooper the fifteen
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: million or whatever they pay him a year. Are people
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: really that tied to watching Anderson Cooper lie to them
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: every night? I think it really could just be anybody
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: just hire like some dlist actor to read the news.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I don't think it makes any difference. They're all just
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: reading off teleprompter. Say they're not journalists, right, They're not
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: like investigative journalists. They're not Fine, They've got producers who
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: give them all the information that they need to construct
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: the narrative, the narrative that's actually provided to them anyway.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Sources told puck News that the layoffs will take place
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: in the next few months and will include those whose
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: TV production talents won't necessarily be needed in the new
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: digital first landscape.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Uh oh, let's see.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Reporters and correspondence would be asked to take on responsibilities
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: handled by production teams. Redundant assignments will be next, and
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: various divisions will be reduced or even eliminated. Well, this
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: must be scary for Brian Stelter because they just brought
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: him back on again. Maybe he's gonna have to go
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: and like work in the kitchen now or something. The
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: outlet said that some on air talent is likely to
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: be affected by the layoffs. While layffs are occurring, CNN
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: reportedly plans to create new positions. The layoff and hiring
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: process could result in a net gain in employees to
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: accommodate CEO Mark Thompson stress on a digital first business model. Well,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: they tried that before and it failed after like three days. Right,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: do you remember that I made a video on that.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: If you're not subscribed to the channel, subscribed now and
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: you can go and find that video somehow. Like, do
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: you think Elon mush should buy CNN? It's something people
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: are talking about, you know. Would it be awesome? Yeah,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: but it's too much. There's only so much the man
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: can do, right, Like, it's too much. But maybe there'll
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: be another billionaire that will be inspired by him. I'm
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: sure there are. I'm sure there. I'm sure there are
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: those that are tempted. Right, So, did Elon Musk buy
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: CNN Soon to be XNN? Well no, he didn't, and
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: I don't think that he will. But XNN would be
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: really fun. That would be hilarious.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Anyway.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: That's all I'm gonna say about that. Please like, share
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and subscribe. Subscribing really helps me out. I thank you
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: for that. I will see you next time.
