Fox News received the worst ratings news it has ever experienced on Friday, marking the continued implosion of the previously top-rated cable news channel. As Dailywire’s Matt Walsh revealed on Facebook, their trajectory is likely worse than most even realize.
For 120 straight weeks, Fox News was the most-watched cable news network in primetime. Its main competitors, MSNBC and CNN, never came close. In the key advertising demographic — people between the ages of 25 and 54 — Fox News was the undisputed leader. But last week, after nearly two months of declining ratings following the ouster of Tucker Carlson, Fox News’ streak came to an abrupt and very unceremonious end. Last Friday, Fox News recorded its worst performance in primetime in the network’s history. Just 109,000 people between the ages of 25 to 54 tuned into Tucker Carlson’s old 8pm time slot, to watch the replacement show “Fox News Tonight.”
How bad is that? To put it in context, “Fox News Tonight” was ranked 41st out of all cable news shows on Friday. This is the time slot that used to routinely be ranked number one. Now YouTube streams of people playing with Legos get more viewers. And keep in mind — Fox News attracted those 109,000 viewers on a very busy news night, after the announcement of Donald Trump’s indictment. Not many people cared what Fox News anchors had to say about the indictment of a presidential frontrunner.
Whatever you make of that, it’s clear that the implosion of Fox News is well underway. And it’s showing no signs of stopping. Last week, as Tucker discussed on his Twitter show Thursday, Fox News executives publicly condemned a veteran producer who wrote a banner criticizing Joe Biden. Five years ago, the banner wouldn’t have attracted any attention whatsoever. But under the current leadership at Fox News, it led to the producer leaving the network within 48 hours.
That banner is the most interesting thing that’s happened in that time slot for about two months, so of course Fox News cracked down on it. What’s happening at Fox feels familiar. The network is on the same trajectory we saw with Bud Light, then Target. Fox News executives, for some reason, are destroying their own product, and now they’ve lost the trust of their customer base.
Fox News Is Worse Than Anheuser-Busch and Target
For some conservatives, the exodus from Fox News began years ago. Others, including me, stopped watching following the 2020 election. Most who have abandoned the network took the firing of Tucker Carlson as the last straw. But there are more people to prompt to leave, and that prompting starts with us.
I’m not the first and I won’t be the last to call on patriots to stop watching Fox News. There are many reasons, but the biggest in my book is that they are controlled opposition. They work on behalf of the UniParty Swamp which itself answers to the Globalist Elite Cabal. That makes their crimes exponentially worse than Anheuser-Busch who hired the wrong spokesperson. It makes Fox News far more dangerous than Target or other retail stores that sell LGBTQIA+ supremacy products.
Fox News is willfully misleading Americans. They have been doing so for some time, working as controlled opposition by sprinkling globalist propaganda in with their occasional moments of ideological clarity.
They didn’t like Tucker Carlson. They don’t like any of the current hosts who are marginally patriotic or who embrace the truth. They tolerate the occasional truth as a means to entice people into absorbing the propaganda they deliver.
Fox News does the bidding of Big Pharma. They work on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party. They cover for George Soros, Klaus Schwab, and Bill Gates. In short, the network operates as an organization that must be considered the enemy of the people.
Please boycott them if you haven’t already. They’re irredeemable. Does that mean running off to CNN or any of the leftist outlets? No. Newsmax and One America News are better options. There is also a burgeoning industry of conservative news outlets that should get attention. I’ve been trying to vet them out as much as possible and there is potential. There is hope. More on that later.

Bret Unbearable is taking foxnews down. fire him or become the next cnn. newsmax blows the foxnews prime time out of the water
I quit watching Faux News when Harris Faulkner told Newt Gingrich he couldn’t talk about George Soros, just prior to the 2020 coup
I find substance relief on One America News, Real America’s Voice, and Newsmax
With Rumble, CFP, Revolver, Off the Press, Slay News, zero Hedge, Just the News – who needs Faux?
Watch RAV. You get Warroom, Charlie Kirk, Jack Posobic, Live From Studio B, John Solomon.
100%
Abandon your purpose & your audience & act surprised that you are now competing with those you previously dominated.
You watch MSNBC instead of Fox ? CNN ? ABC, CBS, and NBC ? You are delusional. Fox ain’t great, but they are far and away the best of the broadcast bunch.
Fox News doesn’t broadcast like ABC CBS NBC PBS
Real America’s voice and Newsmax.
Fox is a controlled opposition hangout that banned Newt Gingritch for talking about Soros.
Why ? Because the owners sons are leftists and good friends with Soro’s kid.
The wives dominate and control the kids.
You’re arguing with a strawman. Literally NO ONE (at least no one who would be reading this article and these comments) is saying to watch MSNBC over Fox. Like the article said, the better options are Newsmax and OAN, though I would have added Real America’s Voice to the list.
Time to start watching NewsMax. Just force yourself for a week. FoxNews is like crack. Hard to give up but they’ve crossed the line this time. The pussy libs in charge need to feel the furor of the viewers!
If you pay for cable TV not watching doesn’t do much. All these crappy networks still get a cut of your $100/mo cable bill. If you really want to hurt CNN, MSNBC, Disney and Fox News, you need to get rid of cable TV.
STAKEHOLDER corporations FORCING behaviors. Nice to see people Tuning out, no point listening to Clowns bloviate.
I won’t even click on a fox affiliate video on youtube.
The problem we have is that the Soviets don’t care about making money. Blackheart and VanGrift only want to destroy Western Civilization, and business losses are a cost of doing business. Bud or Target or Fox going bankrupt is a cost, as long as they can destroy our families our heritage, our churches, our military and our justice system (which is already dead – Merrick Garland murdered it).
However, if we keep opposing them, boycotting companies like the above, we will bankrupt those people and companies. Any shareholders in all these companies need to sue them for failing to do their feduciary duty. BlackHeart et al WILL wind up broke, in tatters, lying the gutter, wishing they had not taken that path. It will happen, and only then, will we get our country and our liberty back. And we’re doing it without lasers, clubs, guns, the Injustice Department, the rotted FBI, and firebombs (unlike the Demarxist Party).
“Newsmax and One America News are better options.”
Please don’t forget REAL AMERICA’S VOICE aka RAV!!!
I began watching NEWSMAX just last week and like it better than FOX. But there are several FOX programs and hosts that I watch including the 6-9 am slot and Mark Lavine on Sunday night.
I boycotted Faux news after they said Biden won Arizona. another great source of news is Mike Lindell’s – Frank Speech dot com
Real America’s Voice RAV is great too as an alternative national news. With people like John Solomon, Ed Henry, Steve Bannon and the War Room, it’s an excellent choice. It can be streamed or Dish Network carries it on 219.
Be careful with Newsmax. I switched to them after the FOX AZ call. I looked forward to Greta coming on board but found she’s too liberal having John Bolton on all the time. Eric Boling whom I usually like has.Nikki Haley on. So not quite as conservative as when they started out. It seems the Dominion lawsuit really was a turning point for them and the temperature changed toward blue ever so slightly. I even wrote the editors Of Newsmax on line when one of their reporters did a pro abortion article! It was taken down but never should have made it on there to begin with! Real America’s Voice and Frank Speech. War Room is BY FAR the best reporting! RAV has EXCELLENT hosts John Solomon/Amanda Head, Grant Stinchfield, Jack Posobiac, Charlie Kirk, Ed Henry and so many others. Frank Speech has the last hour of War Room 6-7pm eastern. They have other hours of it but the only place I can find to watch that last hour streaming on my tv. And they have great conservative content hosts as well. I highly suggest you check them out!
Totally agree that War Room has by far the best reporting of anything out there, with the bonus of the other shows that you mentioned as well. Nothing else comes close and yet there are so many who STILL aren’t even aware of it. For articles, I recomment ZeroHedge, Gateway Pundit, Revolver News (which led me to this article) and The Conservative Treehouse.
