Iran War Leads to Massive Ratings Jolt for Three Major Cable News Networks
"Fox News led the pack as usual, averaging 3 million viewers in primetime Monday-Sunday and 323,000 in the advertiser-coveted adults 25-54 demo, up 15% and 24% month-over-month in both categories, respectively."
"For MS NOW, it was the channel's most-watched month since October 2024, which came on the eve of the Trump v. Kamala Harris election, a major feather in the cap of new president Rebecca Kutler."
"CNN similarly had its best full-day viewership since March 2022, right after the Russia-Ukraine War started, and its best primetime month since August 2024."
"The Five's ratings were up 2% compared to February, while Jesse Watters won the demo for the month by averaging 387,000 viewers between 25-54."
In March, cable news ratings saw significant increases, driven by viewer interest in the Iran War and President Trump's actions. Fox News led with an average of 3 million primetime viewers, marking a 15% increase month-over-month. CNN and MS NOW also experienced boosts, with CNN reaching 898,000 primetime viewers and MS NOW achieving 1.26 million. MS NOW had its most-watched month since October 2024, while CNN recorded its best viewership since March 2022. Fox News's show The Five topped ratings with 4.1 million viewers.
