When you operate a 24-hour news network and you’re being beaten in the ratings by a children’s television station — during the daytime when the kids are all at school — it might be a good idea to take a look at your business practices to see how you can improve. But not if you’re CNN!
If you’re CNN, you double down on the anti-Trump crazy train and tell your remaining handful of viewers that they can go to H-E-double-hockeysticks if they don’t like it.
The original fake news network is absolutely tanking in the ratings. If you think ESPN has been terrible ever since it decided to stop covering sports so it could call Trump a racist 24 hours a day, this will sound really weird, but… ESPN is now beating CNN in the ratings race.
More people are tuning in to see “Kung Fu Panda” on Nickelodeon than Wolf Blitzer on CNN. “Spongebob Squarepants” is whipping the pants off of CNN’s Don Lemon. And poor little Chris Cuomo is less interesting than whatever “Dora the Explorer” is doing.
For more perspective, tune in — just for a moment — during a flag-hating NFL game next Sunday and observe all the empty seats in the stadium. That’s what CNN’s audience looks like right now. It’s really bad!
Just how bad are the numbers? Check out the video below, which will leave you wondering how much longer CNN can hang on before its last viewer abandons it for good!
