Alright, so we have been tracking with CNN's ratings decline over the last several months, and it really is bad, I mean there is just no way around it. Their numbers for Q2 of this year were some of the worst ever. They fell to just over half a million viewers total, TOTAL. They struggled even more during the ALL IMPORTANT primetime hours of 8 to 11 pm eastern time. They finished in an embarrassing 15th place in terms of the most-watched networks on basic cable. They finished behind channels like TLC, Discovery and the Hallmark Channel.
They averaged just over 700 thousand primetime viewers; just to give you an idea of how embarrassing that is, Fox averages around 2.4 million primetime viewers. CNN started off the third quarter with the lowest viewership average for the network since 2015, and given how news heavy the second quarter was, with the release of the Mueller Report and the beginning of the Democratic presidential campaign, Q3 promises to be a ratings disaster.
Now while it IS true that cable viewership has declined in general, streaming services like YouTube and Hulu are the wave of the future, so while it is true that cable viewership is down as a whole, Fox news is reporting that CNN's losses really are nothing short of overwhelming. The network lost 18 percent of its audience compared to the second quarter of last year and
CNN also lost nearly 40 percent of primetime viewers among their key demographics. So there is no question that CNN's ratings are collapsing.
