CNBC CANCELS SHEPHERD SMITH
CNN's Ratings Are Trash, Jake Tapper's Ratings Are Trash, Don LeMon's Ratings Are Trash, and Other News of the Usual

ABOVE THE MAIN STORY UPDATE!

Max Tani at Semafor has CNBC's bs line:

Shep Smith's CNBC show is ending.

"The News set out on a bold mission of providing non-partisan, fact-based reporting on the most important stories of the day in the U.S. and around the world," CNBC President KC Sullivan wrote in an internal memo. "At a time when misinformation and disinformation is rampant, The News succeeded in providing audiences with the clearest understanding of the facts."

The memo cited "times of flux and uncertainty" as playing a role in the decision.

Don LeMon should be worried. Sexuality is no longer a shield -- not in a Biden Economy.

SO SOON AFTER PRIDE MONTH???

Pride Month ended? During John McCain's funeral?

Fake Jake is getting "promoted" out of primetime and back to afternoons where he will compete with game shows and QVC's "Jewelry" Deals.

I don't know why they put "Jewelry" in quotes in their own show-title. That doesn't seem like a show of confidence in their wares.

CNN's Jake Tapper moving back to old time slot following ratings struggle in primetime

New CNN boss Chris Licht reportedly wanted Tapper to be the 'new face' of the network

That ugly pinch-faced scold of a mug with its aircraft hanger schnozz?

You serious?

Liberal CNN anchor Jake Tapper is being tapped out of primetime and moving back to daytime following poor viewership.

"As part of a special lineup, Jake agreed to anchor the 9p hour through the midterm elections," a spokesperson for CNN told Fox News Digital. "At the completion of that schedule, he'll be returning to his award-winning program 'The Lead.' We will announce post-election plans for that time slot in the coming days."

Tapper made his primetime debut on Oct. 11 with a splashy broadcast that included interviews with President Biden and movie star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Despite the big-named guests, "CNN Tonight with Jake Tapper" only averaged 854,000 viewers, which is a distant third behind Fox News' "Hannity" with 2.6 million viewers and MSNBC's "Alex Wagner Tonight" with 1.6 million viewers. Tapper's audience substantially dipped since then.


Chris Licht, the new CNN honcho, reportedly wanted Tapper to be the "new face" of the network as the CEO has been vocal about his efforts to steer CNN towards nonpartisanship after years of hyper-liberal coverage during the Trump years.

While CNN announced the primetime lineup shuffle would be set at least through the midterms, Licht reportedly wanted Tapper to be in the 9pm ET time slot permanently. The time slot has been vacant ever since the December 2021 ousting of Chris Cuomo.


In October, Tapper averaged only 691,000 viewers. Notably, his daytime program "The Lead," which has been guest-hosted by other CNN anchors during his primetime stint, regularly had higher viewership than his 9 p.m. show and averaged 839,000 viewers last month.

Fox points out that Fake Jake's carefully-curated and DM-enforced reputation for fairness is a complete sham:


"Unhinged lies born from Donald Trump's grievance that he lost and his refusal to accept reality... this anti-democracy insanity -- it has already infiltrated the same halls of Capitol Hill where the rioters once stood... all of this leaves you, the voter, in sort of an impossible position. You should be able to walk into that voting booth and vote on issues that affect your life like the economy or crime or education or health care. But now, in too many races, instead of asking yourself, 'What can this candidate do for me and my community and my children in the next two years?' You now also have to ask, 'Hey, does this candidate believe in democracy?'" Tapper said in his second primetime broadcast while lambasting "election deniers" running for office.

Many of his segments were focused on former President Trump, Jan. 6, and so-called GOP "election deniers," who Tapper long prided himself from banning on his CNN programs despite having welcomed Democrats like Stacey Abrams.

On to Don LeMon. It is my theory that CNN intends to fire him, but they cannot fire a Gay Black Guy outright. (Megyn Kelly says that, on CNN, LeMon looked into the camera and said, "I'm gay and black, don't fire me.")

So they've given him a Mission: Almost Impossible -- improve the ratings of CNN's little-watched morning show or we will say "We gave Don LeMon every chance." And then they'll have enough "cover" to fire him.

Well. If that is their plan for ridding themselves of this sexual assailant, they're halfway home: Like Jake Tapper, Don LeMon's new show is getting ratings even lower that the low-rated show it was supposed to improve on!

CNN's New Morning Show Is Not Off to a Sunny Start in Ratings

The "CNN This Morning" debut declined in Nielsen ratings from "New Day," the show it replaced.

CNN's new-look morning show needs an early jolt of caffeine. The ratings are in for "CNN This Morning" with Don Lemon, Poppy Harlow, and Kaitlan Collins, and they got off to a rough start, lagging behind not only rivals like "Fox & Friends" and "Morning Joe" but also its predecessor on CNN, "New Day."


...

MSNBC's "Morning Joe" more than doubled "CNN This Morning" in terms of total viewers, drawing 793,000 on Tuesday. Its advantage in the key demo was slighter but still significant: "Morning Joe" got 114,000 viewers 25-54. That's nothing. Fox News Channel's "Fox & Friends," the reigning champion of the cable news morning shows, earned 1.5 million total viewers yesterday; 236,000 of those were from the demo.

So Day 1, November 1, was not one to remember for "CNN This Morning." Give the new show some time -- at least as much time as CNN+ got.

"CNN This Morning" is one of new CNN chief Chris Licht's first big programming plays since he was appointed as chairman and CEO in May, gambling that by moving Lemon off his struggling primetime slot and Harlow up from her 9 a.m. slot on "CNN Newsroom," their personalities could be better served in the morning slot and revitalize "New Day." The move was necessary as "Don Lemon Tonight" was in last place among viewers across CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC in both hours.

Bobby Burack at Outkick the Coverage has a better write-up:


Lemon promised a fun and informative program that'd be popular among CNN viewers. Of course, the show is neither.

The clip Bobby Burack links with "neither" is a must-watch. It's like watching paint dry, if paint was a hyperpartisan homosexual and his platonic work frenemies endlessly praising Liz Cheney and Elisa Slotnik for "saving democracy."

Ever been in the hospital for an extended period of time and you're miserable and bored and you smell of sweat and plastic sheets and you cannot watch another re-run of The Price Is Right without hanging yourself from a curtain so you just watch the IV bag dripping into your catheter to mark the time?

Yeah, it's not quite as good as that.

It's literal death. Literal. I'm a ghost now. Me and AOC are dating.

...

Despite heavy promotion, the revamped morning program failed to match the previous average of "New Day," the show it replaced. "New Day" averaged 404,000 viewers in October, topping only the now-defunct "Don Lemon Tonight."

For comparison, MSNBC's "Morning Joe" drew 793,000 viewers head to head from 6 to 9 am ET. "Fox & Friends" swept the floor with both, averaging 1,450,000 viewers.

No show across CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News ranked lower than Lemon's on Tuesday:

Fun and informative!

Yup, check the scoreboard: CNN This Morning appears on the list at 47, 50, and 52 (for each of its deathly hours) after literally all other offerings from Fox and MSNBC and almost all other offerings from little-watched CNN. It's just barely beating Newsmax, which isn't really a full cable news channel.

I don't think CNN's lamesauce attempt to rebrand itself as "nonpartisan" and "straight news" has any chance of working. A woman who has a bad reputation can fashion herself into a lady, but a woman who has a reputation of being the gnarliest, nastiest gutterslut at the docks cannot pass herself off as a proper woman.

I also don't think it's what the last remaining audience watching CNN wants. They want the whore, not the faked-up lady.

I don't think CNN survives in anything approaching its current form. Maybe it can completely reinvent itself or be sold off in parts. But as it stands now, CNN is dead in the water. It can't try to reformulate into a more "moderate" news network. CNN's "talent" is genetically incapable of doing that. Its "audience" is die-hard leftist twats who are genetically incapable of watching that. So what else is there to do?

Not unless they take it more seriously. CNN continues to be an absurd propaganda platform with idiots in charge and on the screen. They have to break away completely from the past and reboot the whole thing back to pre-patch. That means cleaning house on not just the on screen, er, talent but the production people who have crafted it into what CNN has become.

In a year or so of doing news more straight down the middle and without the hilariously obvious propaganda bits, people might start to watch it again. But its going to take time and eating a lot of losses because right now nobody trusts the channel to not randomly explode into partisan suck again.

140 If I were to buy and run CNN I would turn it into an aggregate where I would run local and regional news sources when events happen, with perhaps an analyst segment or a couple of experts in the field discussing it.

Let's say an earthquake happens. Don't have your brainless good looking anchor talk about it, go directly to feeds and amateur footage of the events, use clips from sources like Tik Tok and You Tube from people there, and local news coverage segments. Use live feed from wherever it happens, with translators if necessary.

This is the internet age, nobody wants to see what happened hours later from someone who wasn't there reading from a teleprompter. They want the goods where and when it happened.

167 the wholesale firings must be accompanied by allocution clearly stating that "We know what we did was wrong, and we're going to fix it. Please forgive us and give us another chance".

I agree, I think that would go a long ways toward helping CNN rebuild: admit that the station had gone crazy, admit that it was stupid, admit things were being run poorly, and then show the changes with immediate, and clear differences on screen.

Posted by: BurtTC at November 03, 2022 12:22 PM (YV6PJ)

=========

I think the newscaster is similar to the movie star except that people really did seem to trust the older ones through the 60s. People like Cronkite abused that trust horribly, but I think the trust was there.

However, it created a dynamic that the networks really understood or could actually replicate. What people ended up latching onto after that initial period was the brand, but CBS couldn't change its brand very much. So, in order to explain why CBS was beating ABC or NBC, or whatever the dynamic was at any given time, was attributed to the newsreader. Good newsreaders got ratings. Bad newsreaders got bad ratings.

This atrophied network thinking to the point where they could only think in terms of on air personalities to now where they are throwing tens of millions of dollars at people to buoy relatively small audiences. Networks have no idea what they're doing.

Also, they say he didn't met Orwell, nor disguise himself nor see any body carts. Not that there wasn't a epic starvation he just didn't see that.

The GOP will have its primary sewn up no later than SC, if not before Iowa (NeverTrump donors will blow 9 figures to beat Trump, but it's all going to fail miserably). The Democrats will be publicly demanding a replacement for Biden for months, through at least Super Tuesday, before they eventually settle on him.

It's going to be hilarious.

CNN viewers don't care about information, so "informative" isn't a big deal. CNN viewers actively hate "fun," so that's definitely out.

They are barking up the wrong tree, and need a more audience-focused marketing strategy.

1.) Mornings aren't great to begin with. Their viewers are mostly still sleeping off the wine. Have the anchors drink wine, making it feel socially acceptable to pound wine at 8am. Karen'll love that.

2.) It needs more hate. Not informed hate. Just hate. Maybe put up some photos of DeSantis and have the hosts point at them and scream epithets for ten or fifteen minutes.

3.) It needs more sanctimony. Show Don LeMon and Sloppy Harlot buying a year's supply of corn smuts for their beleaguered yard workers, who live under the shadow of the GOP.

Yes, but the problem is that 30 years ago there were still a whole lot of "moderate" dems, they were still a majority in the party. They recognized that radical leftism was a long term loser. Now, all of those people have been driven from the party, and only the hard core Idealogues remain. AOC and JayPal are going to be at the ideological center of the Dem Party after this election, because everyone who isn't in safe hard left seats is going to be wiped out.

And the Dem party nationwide will turn into what it is in Texas and Florida already; something that struggles to get to the 40% mark in any given election.

Not like recent cycles at all.

Ralston is a Dem operative analyzing NV turnout through early voting. He's out there saying that this is really bad for Dems and very different from previous years. This is another state, like Florida, priming itself for a massive red wave.

Is there any evidence of an "election-denier" who tried to get booked on his show but wasn't allowed? "Banning on his CNN programs" sounds a bit like a euphemism for "I can't get any of these people on my show, so I'll make it sound like I don't want them."

The GOPe standing for nothing means that an alternate, internal power center is primed to come in and make the party stand for something. Trump actively did that in 2016 and 2020. The GOPe thought they could counter Trump with more nothing in 2022.

I think they're having a lot of the same issues finding conservative respondents.

Already have collapsed in Texas and a few other places. Soon, there will be at least 25 states where there is no point in anyone even filing to run with a D behind their name, and at that point the national calculation changes radically. Democrats will become a party of the 3 west coast states plus Colorado, and New England, NY, and Illinois - and nothing else.

I think we outperform the polls, I'm just not sure the traditional "swing states" are accurate barometers anymore. Florida used to be purple, it seems pretty red now.

He's been saying this for a while. Trafalgar has their own polling methodology that seems to use a lot more factors than traditional media polls to try and gauge public sentiment.

One factor he has consistently stated is that many MAGA voters tend to refuse to participate in polls because they have been so demonized they don't want to be publicly identified.

466 438 I think we outperform the polls, I'm just not sure the traditional "swing states" are accurate barometers anymore. Florida used to be purple, it seems pretty red now.

10 years ago, if I said a Republican won Florida, Ohio, and Iowa (and by solid margins) and lost states like Wisconsin and PA by less than 1%, would say they won the White House , easy.

A polling error could help Democrats gain Senate seats

So what would the election results look like if Democrats did 5.4 points better than the FiveThirtyEight forecast currently predicts in every Senate race and 6.3 points better in every House race? In this scenario, it would be Democrats who win 54 Senate seats — the ones in which they are currently favored plus Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio and Wisconsin.

And in the House, Democrats would win 227 seats, while Republicans would win 208. In other words, Democrats would gain seats in the lower chamber, something the president’s party has done only twice since World War II. Those gains would include light-red seats like New York’s 1st and Ohio’s 13th.4 Some endangered Democratic incumbents (like Reps. Tom Malinowski and Tom O’Halleran) would also keep their seats.

China rolls out first 'inhalable' Covid vaccine.

That specifically? No. That Red China would have some new wonder cure for COVID that would roll out shortly after the 20th CCP Congress? Yes.

China's "Zero COVID" policy and associated continuous testing regime is destroying that country's economy and causing tremendous social friction and anti-government sentiment. The CCP, like all authoritarian governments, can never - EVER - be wrong about anything. There is no way to wind it down without declaring victory, and no way to declare victory without a deus ex machina.

The "inhalable vaccine" - whatever it actually is (my guess is that it's nothing, just some benign vapor) - is that deus ex machina. Everyone gets it, then they stop testing, then COVID is beaten, then the "Zero COVID" regime winds down gracefully. Anyone who gets COVID from that point forward had a cold or the flu. The control measures convert to non-health purposes, and the control mechanism (apps and tracking) will be rebranded.

Spain, the richest, most powerful empire for the Age of exploration, spent a century trying to set up cannon foundries in Spain, and failed.
The reasons were varied, but they all came down to being unwilling to make changes culturally and politically to allow such an industry to succeed. All in all they didn't need it since they were rich enough to buy the cannon, but eventually they were at war with the best manufacturers' countries.

I think this is the main problem the Dems have.

614 HOLY S***: Kimberly Zapata, the deputy director of the City of Milwaukee Election Commission has just been fired for committing election fraud by obtaining fake military ballots and sending them to Assembly Elections Committee chairwoman Janel Brandtjen.

SO yesterday I was asking what happens if the Dems get caught in election fraud in a purple state. The general moron answer was "nothing" so I guess we will see here.

This used to be routine in Wisconsin. At least in this case the votes are expunged. A baby step, and I would like to see Wisconsin prosecute her.

616 The GOP gets 54 Senate seats in 2022, 60 is very possible in 2024. It'll take finally knocking out Manchin, Tester, and Brown, but it's possible.

I think both Manchin and Romney retire in 2024. Their actions this year tell me they both know that they've worn out their welcome.

617 I think Squawk Box and Closing Bell are great shows. Becky, Joe and even Andrew are the best hosts of any program, and Sarah goes extremely well with an after work beer. Any show is improved if Kate Rooney gets a segment. Deirdre Bosa is also terrific despite the little hiccup with the LIGMA layoff at twitter.

Republicans have to have a 53 majority in the senate to counterbalance the cross aisle whores Romney and his ilk.

620 Well, Rishi Sunak is a place-holder PM until the Powers That Be can get a Labour guy or gal in there. Keir Starmer?

With all the Jew-hate in the Labour Party, he oughta change his last name to "Sturmer".

By some fluke and this walking disaster of a sick man get elected, I guess the good news would be that he might be one of the more coherent members in the Senate.

They should break 60 pretty easily. They have almost zero chance of losing any of their seats that are up, and they are exposed pretty bad on 10-11 of them. Especially if they lose a few more governorships this year.

I read that as "Bonk-Bonk Pussy Galore". Which would get much better ratings than J6 or Young Sheldon.

Fired? She needs to be stood before a stone wall, and fired at.
