Latest / Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show! / CNN Ratings COLLAPSE, Fall Behind NEWSMAX
Transcript
- 0:00So CNN is in a tough spot now. They always leaned left, of
- 0:05course, but over the Trump years they decided that the money was in going
- 0:09full Orange Man bad cult, and probably ideologically they were aligned with that as
- 0:14well, and so they courted and trained their existing audience to expect CNN to
- 0:20just simply be Trump reply. Guys, just whatever Trump says is bad,
- 0:24whatever he does is bad. And in fact, whatever good things Trump was
- 0:27doing, they never even heard about, or it was spun to make it
- 0:31look like it was bad. So that's the Frankenstein's Monster audience that they wanted,
- 0:37and they got only decreasingly so because that same audience is not happy with
- 0:43some of the stuff they're doing recently. Even though you could hardly call CNN
- 0:47conservative or even centrist these days, but even so, they've committed some cardinal
- 0:52since they had Trump on for a town hall. Yeah, they didn't like
- 0:55that. CNN has been telling them for years now that he's new Hitler,
- 0:59So why would they have themon That's crazy right here, as CNN primetime ratings
- 1:03Planet after Trump bump fall below Newsmax. Now they're already terrible ratings, would
- 1:10have gotten a bump from having Trump on because Trumpet supporters would have watched.
- 1:14But their cult member audience that they've cultivated doesn't like that. In fact,
- 1:19I think they were enraged by it, and now they're tuning out on drugs.
- 1:22I guess they're going to MSNBC. The ratings challenged cable news network drew
- 1:26just three hundred and thirty five thousand average viewers during its three hour primetime block
- 1:32on Friday, placing it not only behind Fox and MSNBC, but also fringe
- 1:37outlet Newsmax. Now Newsmax, I believe has been growing, and I actually
- 1:42think they have some pretty good programming on Newsmax. It's definitely biased, but
- 1:46who isn't now this three hundred and thirty five thousand average viewers. Now,
- 1:51to put that into context, at Tucker Carlson, before he left Fox was
- 1:53getting over three million average. So this is very poor for a supposed may
- 2:00cable news station. Now CNN is undernew management, has been for I think
- 2:04about a year and a half now, and they made a lot of noise
- 2:07about moving to the center but trying to be a more objective cable news station.
- 2:13I haven't seen a ton of evidence of that, except for maybe the
- 2:15Trump town hall, although it didn't look like, you know, resting bitch
- 2:20face who was interviewing him, was being particularly objective. But here's another example
- 2:25of maybe an attempt to seem not totally biased. Here's from Jake Tapper,
- 2:30and let's see what he said. Regardless, the report is now here,
- 2:34it has dropped, and it might not have produced everything of what some Republicans
- 2:38hold for. It is, regardless, devastating to the FBI into a degree,
- 2:43it does exonerate Donald Trump. He's talking about the Durham investigation there,
- 2:47which shows, of course that there was never any justification for the investigations into
- 2:53Trump, over all of the Russian nonsense. And let's see what left wing
- 2:57propagandist Aaron Rupar had to say. Truth Social just in to push alert,
- 3:01alerting everyone to Tepper's misleading commentary. How about this enough from Jake Tepper retweet.
- 3:07If you think he's a posh, congrats, Jake Tepper, you just
- 3:13sold your balls and sold for a job. Deal with the devil is the
- 3:16thing. They don't want any objectivity, they don't want any fairness. That's
- 3:20not what they're going to CNN four. They're going there for Orange Man.
- 3:23Bad, and they're not going to accept anything else. It hurts them to
- 3:28hear anything else. Here a fire Anderson Cooper, fire Jake Tepper. Oh
- 3:32yeah, because they're mad at Anderson Cooper too, Because even though he ranted
- 3:36like a lunatic about Trump after the town hall, he still defended the decision
- 3:40to have who's very likely to be the Republican nominee for president on the network
- 3:47so that the American people can hear from him. Again, they don't actually
- 3:51want news, right, they want propaganda. So anyway, there you have
- 3:54it. I mean, CNN has put itself in a position where to actually
- 4:00tell the truth, any truth at all, is going to hurt them in
- 4:02the ratings because the people that they've trained to want the opposite of truth won't
- 4:08accept truth. So they're going to have to go through a tough time for
- 4:11a while if they do indeed genuinely wish to reform themselves. And I will
- 4:15give them credit having Trump on, even even if that was just for ratings.
- 4:20I mean, he does deserve to have a platform, considering he's probably
- 4:24going to be the Republican nominee and having TAPPA admit at least some truth.
- 4:29I mean, you know these are These are toes dipped into the water.
- 4:31Right will it continue? I don't know anyway, Please subscribe, like and
- 4:35share Shore. It really helps me out. I thank you for that.
- 4:38I will see you next time.
