Author Topic: Jon Stewart’s Ratings Are Now Higher Than All Of Fox News (Read 1290 times)

According to the May Nielson ratings, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart beat the entire Fox News network in terms of total viewers. Stewart averaged 2.3 million viewers, while the Fox News prime time and day time line up averaged 1.85 million viewers.

According to Comedy Central, The Daily Show is dominant in its time slot,

For the month of May 2011, “The Daily Show” averaged 2.3 million total viewers and a 1.2 P18-49 rating. Versus May 2010, “The Daily Show” grew an astounding +19% in total viewers, with incredible double-digit ratings growth across all key demos including P18-49 (up +21%), P18-34 (+22%), P18-24 (+21%), M18-34 (+18%) and M18-24 (+21%).

“The Daily Show’s” 1.344 million P18-49 viewers led all late night talk shows in the demo for the month and, with a 2011 YTD average of 1.25 million P18-49 viewers, “The Daily Show” trails only “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” (1.27 million P18-49 viewers) in the benchmark demographic for the calendar year crown.

While Stewart is on the rise, Fox News had a really, really bad May. Total viewership was down 10%, and Fox News lost viewers in the 25-54 demo in every prime time show. Bill O’Reilly was down 9%, Sean Hannity was down 6%, and Greta Van Susteren dropped 12%.

Do you ever actually discuss politics or does your entire existence revolve around cable TV and talking heads?

The economy is burning and all you can talk about is Sarah Palin and Fox News. $:-\$

When cable ratings show FOX owns MSNBC, that speaks volumes.

When cable ratings show Jon Stewart owns FOX, that doesn't matter.

Are you talking about yourself? Because I've never given two flying fucks about any of these networks.

Not even joking, the obsession you two have this woman is just creepy. Your lives revolve around her. It's quite sad, actually. I can't tell whether it's an actual infatuation (likely) or your attempts to deflect attention from any criticism of your Messiah (also likely). $:-\$

Yes, most people (you and the retarded left aside), can differentiate comparing news channels with each versus comparing them with entertainment shows.

How odd there's no big article about all the other entertainment shows beating Fox.

Fox News = Comedy Central. Both are satire.

the format for Beck is very different from an Olbermann.

Hell, OReilly and Stewart's shows are actually pretty similar.

When Stephen Colbert was invited to tour for the Troops;...the people responsible for inviting him did not realize that he was a comedian lampooning conservatives.

Hahahaha! Congrats to political wizards like Chris Matthews and Cenk Uygur for bringing up dead last. It really says a lot when HLN destroys you in the ratings.
