Woot—replacing propaganda with propaganda!

Anyone else very depressed to learn that they had a 120 week straight run of being the top and it’s 100% hate porn and propaganda?

For all it’s bragging about ratings, Fox News has always been competing against TWO other news networks [ETA: in other words, the other two combined still have a bigger audience.] So if Hannity wants to say CNN and MSNBC are “far left” then he’s admitting more Americans are progressive than conservative.
And I wonder how much OANN and NewsmaxTV have been stealing their audience as well.

It’s also patently ridiculous to frame those networks as left-wing. I mean, CNN recently gave Trump an extended primetime campaign ad for free in the form of that stupid “Town Hall” last month.

I certainly don’t think those networks are far left, they’re just way more “reality based”, which is the real difference between them and Fox News.

In all honesty I’d figured it would’ve been a lot longer than that, so I’m happy to discover that it wasn’t. What happened 120 weeks ago that they didn’t have the top spot longer than that? Without doing the math, that fairly much lines up with January 2021.
The primetime drop occurred during a week filled with Trump indictment news.

How can these TV networks have much power and influence at all when their viewership is like what, .25% of the population?
Do a lot more people visit their websites?
