MSNBC Primetime Ratings Crash, Worst In Eight Years | |
2014-07-31 | |
[BREITBART] As July closes out, MSNBC has posted some of its worst ratings in eight years. The network came in third in total viewers and fourth in the key 25 to 54 age bracket for the month. In prime time, the network came in second in total viewers and third in the key demographic. This was MSNBC's worst showing in prime time in the key demo since 2006. MSNBC was down 16 percent in total viewers over July of 2013 and was down a whopping 33 percent in the 25 to 54 demographic. It lost 16 percent and 25 percent in prime time over last year. While the cable network's total viewer numbers were slightly up for July, its percentage of viewers in the key demo was down by double digits. Both All In with Chris Hayes and The Rachel Maddow Show were down 20% in the key age demo, while The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell was down 17% in the age bracket. Daytime programming for the network also struggled in July.

#9 MSNBC is safe harbored by cable/satellite bundling and that's the way the cable/satellite owners want it. They keep their lil'voice box booming their bigotry and bias and you have to pay for it if you want the other venues (other than open broadcast). |

#8 Good news today. Better news, if they fold completely; they are foaming at the mouth liars and truth-benders. Apparently MSNBC is driven by ideology and not the free market (if there still is one). |

#5 Excellent idea Raj. To keep it fair and balanced perhaps someone from Fox could officiate. |

#4 Just had an idea to raise ratings - maybe Chris Hayes and Ronan Farrow could swing purses at each other in a boxing ring? |

#3 So which will crash first, MSNBC or Al Jazira? The race to chapter 11 is on! |
