FOX News Crushes the Competition in Ratings Again Thanks to Tucker Carlson
“‘Tucker Carlson Tonight’ was the most-watched cable news program of the week among both total viewers and the advertiser-coveted demo, averaging 3.2 million total viewers and 505,000 in the demo.”
Despite constant warnings from Democrats and various liberal cable news hosts, FOX News remains on top of the cable news rating game, and it’s not even close.
FOX News has almost always dominated the ratings, but now they have a secret weapon. You may have heard of him.
His name is Tucker Carlson, and he is kicking ass.
Brian Flood reports at FOX News:
‘Tucker Carlson Tonight’ helps Fox News beat CNN, MSNBC primetime combined for 45th straight week
Americans flocked to Fox News last week for information and analysis during a jam-packed news cycle as the economy, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, COVID, violence across the nation and all-things politics continue to dominate headlines.
Fox News averaged 1.5 million viewers from May 16-22, thumping all of basic cable as no other network surpassed one-million viewers. ESPN finished second with an average audience of 831,000 while TNT finished third with 788,000 average viewers.
Fox News averaged 2.3 million viewers during the primetime hours of 8-11 p.m., topping all basic cable competitors except for the NBA Playoffs-heavy TNT and ESPN. Fox News crushed other cable news offerings in the category, as MSNBC averaged 910,000 viewers and CNN failed to crack the top ten with a dismal average viewership of only 597,000. It was the 45th consecutive week that Fox News outdrew CNN and MSNBC combined during primetime…

Tucker has come under repeated attack lately from every corner of the establishment media.
Even Carl Cameron, who used to work for FOX News but, like others, lost his mind under Trump, recently talked about jail for Tucker Carlson and others for merely expressing their opinions. Remember, these are the same people who claimed Trump was a fascist authoritarian.

Here’s the terrible news for Democrats and never-Trumpers. Tucker is popular among young viewers.
Don’t take my word for it. The left-leaning outlet Mediaite recently reported:
Cable News Ratings Monday May 16: Tucker Carlson Draws Most Young Viewers in All of Cable News
Fox News’ second-highest rated program in terms of overall viewers, Tucker Carlson Tonight, led all of cable news Monday night in the key 25-54 age demographic.
Carlson brought in 508,000 demo viewers, far surpassing The Five’s 374,000 demo viewers.
The Five had most overall viewers with 3.306 million total viewers, edging out Carlson’s 3.16 million total viewers.
Carlson was so dominant among younger viewers that he more than tripled CNN’s Anderson Cooper in their time slot, who only brought in 162,000 demo viewers. MSNBC’s Chris Hayes landed in third place at 8 p.m. in the demo with 128,000 demo viewers.
If you were wondering, this is precisely why the left is engaged in a non-stop effort to silence Tucker Carlson. He is brilliant, but he is also an excellent communicator who makes the left look bad, which cannot be allowed.
I’ll leave you with this. It’s Tucker’s reaction to Biden’s remarks on the shooting in Texas. It’s brutal, but I challenge anyone to claim Tucker is wrong:
Make no mistake. Tucker is under constant attack because he is right.
If he were truly irrelevant, as some idiots on the left have claimed, he wouldn’t matter to them.

Cops did nothing, oh they did cuff parents trying to rescue their children

Maybe they SHOULD be de-funded. They stand there and do nothing while shops are looted and burned, but hassle people over nothing. Kristalnacht 2.0?
I’ve been saying this forever, the only thing I agree with the left about, get rid of the cops. All they do in many cases is protect the murdering criminals. That is what they did here, not only not stopping the bad guy with the gun, but stopping the good people that wanted to go in.
Get rid of the police, get rid of the police state. We’ll take care of the problem ourselves.
Throw in DAs like in L.A., Chicago, Baltimore, New York, and you have a deal.
Works for me
Sure you don’t want to shoot all the lawyers first? 😉
You guys need to take a break. Uvalde is not a sleepy little community. They are constantly besieged with illegals.

It’s non-stop chaos and everyone is living on edge just waiting for bad things to happen. We should be blaming the open borders crowd and that includes the entire Uniparty and corrupt globalists who own them. This is the way the world is these days and if it hasn’t arrived at your town yet, it is coming soon. Let’s hope is arrives in Delaware soon.

Take a break from what?
Have you tried setting your hair on fire? Much of what we “know” is questionable.. This town sounds like a war zone on a normal day.
No, have not tried that. I don’t recommend it though. The cops will stand there and watch you burn.
Much of what we “know” is not in question. The cops screwed this up from the first minute. That much is certain and admitted to. All of these cases have at least one thing in common, bad police work.
You can make all the excuses you like, no one will buy because it’s clear a shooter was in the school while the cops stood around outside stopping the parents from saving their children.
It’s shameful. And trying to cover it up is shameful.
Leftists and NeverTrumpers don’t attack Carlson because he’s a racist. They know that is lie. They attack him because lots of people are listening to him.
Relatively speaking. One million out of around 320 million isn’t much of an audience and doesn’t speak well for the knowledge level of the general populace.
“Racist” has no meaning anymore. It’s just a derogative word void of factual content. But hey, it’s the only weapon the rabid socialists have so we must bear over with their primal screams.
Usually Tucker is over the target
The Governor needs to organize a state-wide volunteer organization that can be used as school security or where-ever else they are needed. He could expand the little Texas Defense Force to do this.
The problem isn’t the lack of security, it’s the lack of proper upbringing. Until the past decade or two, school security wasn’t even a consideration outside of the inner cities. Way back when, when I was a kid, the biggest “crime” anybody ever committed was to block the outlet in one of the sinks in the industrial arts classroom to flood the place and piss off the prof..
Fact is that Democrats OPPOSE arming teachers, or having more armed police in the schools BECAUSE the shootings are useful for them. They support abortion UP TO THE MINUTE OF BIRTH, which is nothing more than murder. The hypocrisy is stunning.
“”UP TO THE MINUTE OF BIRTH””
And past. Only pro-life people were upset about Gosnell.
Get back to me when Carlson recognizes the 2020 election theft and stops covering it up.
The entire lineup at Fox absolutely refuses to even say the words, “2,000 Mules”. Why is that?
Fox was opposed to Trump in 2016 and in on the steal in 2020. That is clear and was made clearer when they called the election* for Biden very early in a contest that would ultimately show a biden “win” by 10,000 votes. No way FOX made that call based on any evidence, they made it because they knew the fix was in and they wanted to effect public opinion.
*Fox were the only ones that made that call. The designated hitter.
The bulk of America appreciates truth and can smell bullshit.
Tucker says what everybody knows, but what the MSM will never admit.
Mentally ill 18 year olds walk into gun stores and leave with weapons. If you can’t fix that, you can’t fix anything.
Define mentally ill. Is it what you decide? Biden? Schumer? Pelosi?
No so easy as it will be abused.
Thank you for the updated info, Mr. LaChance. Nicely done.
The problem with the statistic is it doesn’t compare Tucker to all mainstream media in his time slot (which is the proper comparison).
We have work to do, Tucker Carlson is popular and his message is popular unfortunately so is the other message.
Total viewers for all news shows:
– All 19 FoxNews shows are in top 20.
– The 17 top ranks are all FowNews
– First CNN show comes in on 22. place
– NewsMax now has 2 show higher than 2 CNN shows so NewsMax is coming
CNN and MSNBC has been knocked out by FoxNews. Only the hard core socialist community bother to watch CNN.

Just remember, those same Libs who think 18 year olds are not mature enough for gun ownership; are sure pusing to get the votes of those same 18 year olds (even talked about giving vote to 16 year olds). The contortions those Libs will go through. to get a vote.
