#CableNewsIsOverParty: Does The End of the Trump Presidency Spell Doom For Fox News?
On this week’s episode of Millions of Screens, Ben, Libby, and Leo dissect the events of the past week, including the attempted coup by a brigade of MAGA terrorists at The Capitol, Fox News dipping below CNN and MSNBC in the ratings for the first time since September 2000, and the continued rise of OANN and Newsmax. Does the end of the Trump presidency mirror the end of the 24-hour cable news network? Will a “boring” Biden presidency see ratings for all news networks plummet? Additionally, Ben and Libby discuss Nielsen’s reporting on the top streaming titles of 2020 where (surprise, surprise) Netflix dominated. And lastly, Ben explains the success of Viacom’s simulcast of this weekends NFL Playoff matchup between the Bears and the Saints on Nickelodeon, replete with slime whenever a team entered the endzone.
