The CNN business decision to go 24/7 anti-Trump has not paid off in the ratings. Apparently President Donald Trump foes including those with Trump Derangement Syndrome have concluded that MSNBC is a more credible option.
From The Daily Caller:
“Fox News marked its 66th consecutive quarter as the most-watched cable television network as rival CNN failed to top even Home and Garden Network and the Discovery Channel…MSNBC finished second in total viewers behind Fox and third in primetime behind Fox and TNT, which received a major boost from the NBA playoffs. Meanwhile, CNN sat at tenth for primetime behind networks like ESPN, HGTV, Investigation Discovery and History. In total viewers, CNN finished seventh behind Nickelodeon and HGTV, among others.’
RATINGS ARE IN!@FoxNews just marked its 66th consecutive quarter as the number one network in cable television.
Meanwhile, @CNN got beat by a network dedicated to marble countertops and open floor plans. https://t.co/fp3W4hSRCU pic.twitter.com/EdvAIsY0vO

Image how low CNN ratings would be if the network which Trump famously branded “very fake news’ stopped paying airports to force-feed its content at boarding gates.

Perhaps the new AT&T ownership which bought CNN parent Time-Warner will rethink the perpetual and tedious anti-Trump narrative.
