Before we get to CNN, we’d like to introduce this poor fellow who posted this on Reddit after Donald Trump was banned from Twitter:
Heimish Conservative ~ Twitter is hurting real people.
Heh heh heh heh heh. Trump's Twitter feed was this guy's meal ticket, and now ... POOF! Hey, Heimish ... maybe you should send a bill to Jack Dorsey, eh? ROTFLMAO!
We wonder if they’re having similar discussions over at CNN. Some insist that CNN had decent ratings in January because people were glued to their coverage of the January 6 storming of the Capitol, and now that President Biden’s in office, things are smooth sailing. But there’s also the matter that Trump was president for most of the month, although he was banned from Twitter, starving Brian Stelter’s Reliable Sources of rich segments like analyzing Trump’s Twitter typos for deeper meaning.
Yeah, they're all pathetic, obsessed buffoons.
Joe Concha ~ The drop CNN is experiencing is profound. On Friday, not one program broke 900K total viewers. Prime averaged less than 800K overall.
For comparison, the network averaged 2.74 million viewers in January, so we're talking about more than two-thirds of the audience - gone.

The dynamite lineup of Anderson Cooper, Chris Cuomo, and Don Lemon just isn’t drawing them in.
Joe Concha ~ Note: The 2.74M average was for prime, not Total Day.
Comfortably Smug ~ Wow!
VegasYAK ~ (Replying to @ComfortablySmug) Well deserved.
Mtlcndns ~ (Replying to @ComfortablySmug) In their defense the audience may have been standing in traffic and or looting.
Derpinator ~ (Replying to @ComfortablySmug) They aren’t worried, Biden will just put them on direct payroll.
Thomas Crescenzi ~ I wonder how long it will be until they're like MTV and show mostly "lifestyle" programming rather than what the channel is named for.
Capitalist@Large ~ (Replying to @JoeConchaTV and @TomBevanRCP) Viewership down 67% but lies and distortions up 300%. CNN will never learn so the marketplace is disciplining them. What’s that phrase, Get Woke ...
Harry ~ (Replying to @JoeConchaTV) Especially encouraging to see Tucker blow the lid off the competition. He has 1,000,000 more viewers than Hayes on MSNBC & almost 2,000,000 more viewers than Anderson on CNN, WOW!
Homer ~ (Replying to @JoeConchaTV) At what point are those numbers just people that forgot to turn off the TV?
It's probably all of those airport TVs that are automatically tuned in to the Clown News Network, don'tcha know.
