Laura Ingraham says the Jan 6 hearings 'bombed' despite reeling in nearly 20 million views compared to Fox's 3 million

[EvilEyeFleegle]

Interesting logic there---given the disparity in viewership. I also find it interesting that in the immediate aftermath of Jan. 6th--Laura's views were that Trump needed to all the rioters off--and that Trump's legacy was being destroyed!

According to The Hollywood Reporter, over 20 million watched the hearings, with ABC and MSNBC drawing the largest audiences. Fox News' regular programming during the same time period averaged about 3 million viewers.
In December, the January 6 committee reported that Ingraham texted former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows on January 6, telling him that Trump needed to call off the mob. Ingraham was one of several Fox News hosts that appeared to privately blame Trump for the riot, only to take a different position on air later that day.
"Mark, the president needs to tell people in the Capitol to go home. This is hurting all of us. He is destroying his legacy," Ingraham wrote in a text message to Meadows during the riot.
Hannity texted Meadows as well, calling for Trump to "make a statement, Ask people to leave the Capitol." Brian Kilmeade, a host of "Fox & Friends," texted: "Please, get him on TV. Destroying everything you have accomplished."

FOX News has it's way with not being fair and balanced and actually is a disservice to it's viewing public with it's propaganda team, AKA primetime shows.

Fox News is the only Conservative prime time network on TV. There is just one standing against every other prime time network that is clearly Liberal and clearly anti-Trump. There is your "fair and balanced" Media. We have no such thing.

No way.
Fake news.

“This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period, both in person and around the globe,” Sean Spicer said. “Even the New York Times printed a photograph … in their paper, which showed the full extent of the support, depth, and crowd and intensity that existed. These attempts to lessen the enthusiasm of the inauguration are shameful and wrong.”

“Don’t believe the crap you see from these people, the fake news,” Trump said, pointing at reporters as the crowd broke out in boos. “Just remember, what you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening.”

“Sick with us,” he pleaded. “Just stick with us.”

Defending a "conservative" who spent $8 trillion in taxpayer $$$ in 4 years.

Does anyone really expect that Bill Clinton reject to tell the truth?

Fox saw what happened to their ratings when they tethered themselves to reality and called the election for Biden.

Licking Trump's butt is necessary for their survival, at this point.

Laura Ingraham might as well be a drowning person gasping for air or a thirsty person begging for water. She has no control over her own on air behavior, at this point. It's compulsive.

Fox News is a JOKE. The people who work there are not journalists.
They are pathetic clowns. All of them. Chris Wallace was the only credible anchor there, and now he's gone.

You left out Juan Williams & Shep Smith

 

[DudleySmith]

If true, that means there are 15 million more GOP voters out there now. Nobody watching those loons and the bad Uncle Remus impersonator is going to vote for Democrats.

So Hollywood Reporter is saying 20 million, The Hill is claiming 11 million.

Who to believe? Who to believe......
