Non-Breaking News: CNN's Ratings Are Absolute Dogshit and Not Even the Smoldering Dark Sexual Charisma of Jake Tapper Can Save Them

Via DougP. of Twitchy, there's completely-expected news that CNN's ratings are exactly where you'd think they'd be.


CNN finished No. 17 among cable stations during primetime last week amid a news cycle that included the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the ensuing manhunt for his killer, a slew of news related to President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet picks, the fallout from President Biden announcing he would pardon his son, Hunter, and a rebel alliance's challenging Bashar al-Assad in Syria.

CNN's primetime lineup of "Anderson Cooper 360," "The Source with Kaitlan Collins" and "CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip" averaged only 367,000 total viewers from 8-11 p.m. during the week of December 2. By comparison, Fox News Channel averaged 2.5 million total primetime viewers during the same period.

[...]

Despite the busy news cycle, CNN's bleak audience was smaller than TNT, Food Network, Freeform, Discovery, INSP, Hallmark Mystery, TLC, TBS, History, HGTV, USA, MSNBC, Paramount, Hallmark Channel, ESPN and Fox News.

It was even worse for CNN's primetime lineup among the advertiser-coveted demographic of adults age 25-54, as the network managed only 67,000 average demo viewers to finish No. 26 in cable.

More at the Twitchy link regarding CNN's latest "news" reportage, including a CNN anchorette literally lusting after the UHC CEO's assassin, insisting that the chyron be taken down so that she could see his abs.

We are real news, Mr. President.

The depravity of white leftist women is unreal.

Meanwhile, the LA Times' owners are hiring conservative writers to provide some tiny amount of balance in the editorial staff.

One leftist has resigned, shrieking "This is not the time for balance!"

It never is for these deranged communists.

Last year, Washington Post publisher and CEO William Lewis delivered a truth bomb in the middle of the newsroom by telling the staff, "Let's not sugarcoat it...We are losing large amounts of money. Your audience has halved in recent years. People are not reading your stuff. Right? I can't sugarcoat it anymore."

Litman has been one of the most unabashed lawfare warriors. Even when the Justice Department was seeking to dismiss the Flynn case, Lipman wrote an L.A. Times column advising Judge Emmet Sullivan how to "make trouble" for the administration. Litman admitted there is "very little leeway to reject the government's decisions to dismiss charges" but encouraged Sullivan to "accomplish what Congress, multiple inspectors general, and a majority of the electorate have not been able to do -- hold the president and his allies accountable for their contemptuous disregard for the rule of law."

On MSNBC's Deadline: White House, Litman declared to Nicolle Wallace that Trump's victory is "an absolute five-alarm fire." He called the effort to restore a diversity of viewpoints as little more than an attempt "to curry favor with Trump." He then added:


"And I just think this is not a time for balance when you have someone who's not telling the truth on the other side.
And it's a deep responsibility. And instead, I think they cowered and are worried about their personal holdings and just being threatened by Trump. And that's a really shameful capitulation, I think. So, I just felt I couldn't be a part of it and had to resign."

It was a telling moment. Litman appeared on a network that has lost half of its viewership and is fighting for its existence in an effort by NBCUniversal to unload it. Readers are fleeing to new media after papers like the L.A. Times and the Washington Post literally wrote off half of the country. Yet, these figures would rather lose their jobs and media platforms than their bias.

51 Ace, not sure if you've seen. Libs of TikTok has a Twitter post about Westpoint denying Hesgeth had been accepted there, and then claiming "clerical error" when he proved he had been. Other part of the story is that a journalist was going to print the denial, until Hesgeth proved he was right. Then the journalist just ditched the entire story instead of printing that Westpoint was lying.

The media, the Democrats and every other left-aligned organization shouted endlessly of the horrors of what Trump would do if elected.
Nobody but nobody did not hear what would happen.

The public overwhelmingly voted for Trump.

But the left?

91 "CNN'... averaged only 367,000 total viewers from 8-11 p.m. during the week of December 2. By comparison, Fox News Channel averaged 2.5 million total primetime viewers during the same period."

That truly is shocking. CNN and Fox are not even in the same league. Fox has SEVEN TIMES the viewership of CNN.

Since "CNN audience" is a stand-in for "Democratic Party voters" and "Fox audience" is a stand-in for "Republican Party voters," this is a pretty accurate reflection of where the nation stands right now, ideologically.

New Jersey residents have been concerned about sightings of many drones flying over at night. Lots of people are asking about it.

Republican Congressman Jeff Van Drew just told Harris Falkner he has confirmed from reliable sources that there is a "mothership" hovering off the eastern seaboard from which these large drones are launching and overflying Jersey and other places. He goes on to say this is suspected to be an enemy state action. It may be an action by Iran or China.

The charge would be labeled a “fifth-degree felony,” which is the lowest level felony offense in Ohio. However, the maximum sentence is up to 12 months in prison, a fine of up to $2,500, and up to five years of probation.

They're a content mill. Their entire model is built on supplying content to their platform to provide justification for users to keep their subscriptions. As long as people see "New from Netflix", there seems to be a pattern that people keep paying.

Most of these shows don't get much in the way of ratings, as far as any metric available is concerned.

Heck, going onto the platform on any random day sees that most of their Top 10 movies/shows are things they license instead of produce.

In a way I run this as a parallel to the Roman Polanski thing.

Sure, he did it, but then so many other people were and are doing it. So from his perspective, and others of his ilk, you can certainly question how and why HE was singled out for the attention.

Same thing as the french diplomat who was accused of trying to rape the chambermaid. Yeah, I know, we were told she was a shakedown artist, but I don't believe that. Something the cops saw on the scene told them to go get his arse off the plane he had boarded. They don't do that to fancy french diplomats without a reason.

They were able to survive the massive declines of the last 20 years because:
1) they were able to de-monotonize conservative channels, keeping the "premium" advertisers on their channels
2) even with the shrinking audience, advertisers could justify it as currying favor with the ruling regime

But now their audience is so exclusive--and so old--that, along with the new Boss in DC, I don't think advertisers are going to keep losing money on them.

people like Litaman are going to substack and bluesky, where they can find a partisan audience. Their problem with that, as they're going to find out, is that only dedicated fans of yours see what you say in either place. It has no wide coverage, so you just become part of a very small and insular group. If you want to use the words cult members, feel free.

Think about this fact:

US population = 334 million

1% of that would be 334 million.

Thus, 0.1 of that would be 334,000.

Which means that approximately ONE-TENTH OF ONE PERCENT OF THE POPULATION WATCHES CNN.

Let that sink in.

He had polio when he was younger.
Addison Mitchell McConnell III was born in Alabama in 1942 to working-class parents of English and Scots-Irish descent.

At the age of two, he contracted polio, which left a portion of his left leg paralysed and saw him bullied by other kids.

He has credited extensive physical rehabilitation and a protective mother with making sure he could walk again, adding that his family "almost went broke" covering his treatment.


His story could have been one of heroic overcoming against the odds, but instead he chose to hang on to power far longer than he should have. When, oh when, will these fossils get it into their heads that there's a time to move on if you want to be remembered fondly, and that time was YESTERDAY!

If you wanted to say that it relied on 20th Century Fox properties and was figuratively a Fox film (you know, the X-Men franchise that petered out so badly nearly a decade ago), that's something else. But no, they paid for the writing and the production, but they didn't actually do anything to make it happen.

UNEXPECTEDLY: Never Trump Lincoln Project paid millions in 2024 to companies owned by its leaders.

Dubbed in Esquire one day after the election as “the most useless people in America,” the Lincoln Project raised $15.5 million and burned through $16.2 million this year. The organization limped out of this cycle with more than $630,000 in unpaid invoices, largely in connection to limited liability corporations tied to Lincoln Project personnel, records show.

Since last January, the Lincoln Project has paid $2.1 million to Lever Communications, the media agency of its senior adviser, Joe Trippi. The funds were earmarked for digital ads and other consulting services.

In that timeframe, the Lincoln Project also dished out $1.5 million to Third Act Media, which counts Lincoln Project creative adviser Ben Howe as a staff member.

Yea, he's a fag. I have never seen an actual "bi" man in the wild. They are all gay. I guess it's possible that a gay man might say "fuck it" one night and have sex with a woman. But the idea that there are men out there who regularly have sex with both men and women is unicorn shit to me. A man who is attracted to another man's hairy ass and balls ain't gonna also be attracted to a woman. Yes, I know it happened in ancient times. I don't think it does any more.

I remember some story about her about a year ago, probably talking about Snow White, that called her a star with real star power, and it was really weird that Disney wasn't showing trust in her star power.

She's starred in two films before Snow White: West Side Story and the Hunger Games prequel.

West Side Story bombed horrible. The Hunger Games movie did decently. The idea that the latter was all because of Zeigler's star power and not...the well-known IP, is the kind of nonsense that Hollywood pushes because it's full of idiots.

There's a video where Xi Jinping mildly scolds Trudeau for leaking info from a meeting. Trudeau tries to argue freedom of speech and Jinping repeats himself. After Jinping leaves, Trudeau stands there frozen for a couple of seconds, then sets off in one direction, stops and sets off in a different direction.

I got two things from that. First, Trudeau is smart enough to know that mild scolding was a BIG deal. Second, the little bitch was so shaken by that, he didn't know what to do with himself.

There's some fog in the definitions now with the rise of "transmaxxing". This is where you're a guy, you claim to be trans and dress like a woman, but no hormones and no surgery and you date women as a "lesbian" that doesn't need a strap-on. This is why a lot of lesbians *really* hate trannies.

It's pretty much the only reason non-drug using women get HIV/AIDS.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen was a morning report a couple of years ago when we were discussing AIDS. They don't even list the number of straight white males that catch it annually because the numbers are so low. Something like under 300 (three hundred) out of a population of 350M.

Spoiler alert: And that 300 is still probably because they're lying and they're actually doing gay stuff.

405 Rhomboid,
People always assumed Caitlin would be on 'our side' from her suffering at the behalf of wokeness, her being straight, and racism. But that is usually not the case for non ideological people.

Those that have no stomach for a fight that might cause them to lose everything and simply want to do what they are good at will always cave just like that QB did in the NFL about BLM nonsense.

The KC kicker is the rare exception but he was defending pro family and religion which is still tougher to denounce than than the alphabet people or the black racialism you see in the WNBA.

For both the QB and Caitlin, there is also the risk to personal safety from goons on other teams and a refusal from your own team to protect you.

Most people are not up for that struggle and even that are initially, often shy away when the price to be paid is too high.

Thus, our current military is an example of strength through diversity nonsense.

I remember some story about her about a year ago, probably talking about Snow White, that called her a star with real star power, and it was really weird that Disney wasn't showing trust in her star power.

She's starred in two films before Snow White: West Side Story and the Hunger Games prequel.

West Side Story bombed horrible. The Hunger Games movie did decently. The idea that the latter was all because of Zeigler's star power and not...the well-known IP, is the kind of nonsense that Hollywood pushes because it's full of idiots.

Yeah Hunger Games made some money, although from what I understand it wasn't a very big role for her. Rachel had a small and forgettable role in Shazam 2 as well, that didn't do well either.

She has a couple of other movies before Snow White as well; Y2K which is being heavily panned and she's the voice of the main character in Spellbound which isn't out yet.

As you note, the idea of the "movie star" isn't happening these days (even Tom Cruise didn't put enough people in the seats for the last Mission Impossible movie), and she isn't one even if it was real.

It's also why women are being encouraged to get prison tattoos and color their hair absurd pinks and blues and purple colors.

It doesn't make the women more attractive. There's not a man anywhere that looks at a woman and thinks it looks good.

But it helps the trannies blend in, because they can't look feminine. They CAN look masculine and have pink hair, though.
