CNN posts lowest ratings for key demo in its history

“ Ratings-challenged CNN hit rock bottom in a key viewership demographic last weekend — another sign of the difficulties facing incoming boss Mark Thompson.
The cable news network logged its worst weekend ratings on record in the all important 25- to 54-year-old demo, according to the latest Nielsen data released Tuesday.
CNN — which launched in 1980 and bills itself as “the most trusted name in news” — totaled just 55,000 viewers for its weekend slate of shows that include Sunday political programs “State of the Union with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash,” and “Fareed Zakaria GPS.”
The network’s Sunday primetime lineup, which featured “The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper” and “Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy,” drew 43,000 in the demo.
The ratings are the network’s worst since 1991 — the earliest TV data is readily available.“
You hate to see it. It is incredible how far they’ve fallen in the past 20 years. Guess that’s what you get for the trash they produce.

81 million CNN loving people “showed up” 3 years ago and they’ll “show up” again in a year.

That's never coming back.
We are in the age of internet podcast where an infinite supply of custom infotainment is available for consumption.

Have they stopped forcing every airport to carry CNN?

And those employees screeched at the sky when the new boss had PDJT on for the town hall and delivered huge ratings. Hope they all lose their jobs

Is actually a decent show. First season is on Netflix. If he wants it to survive, he ought to get Netflix to produce it directly

Perhaps the talent is the issue CNN. Ever think of that?

While I do agree, other channels still get viewers. But cnn continues to plummet. Why is that? We know why- most people don't like propaganda and cnn is propaganda
