The traditional nightly newscasts on ABC, NBC, and CBS, long the dominant players in television news, are facing increasing competition from Fox News. Bret Baier's 'Special Report' has notably outperformed CBS Evening News in ratings, indicating a shift in viewer preferences during the second Trump administration. While the traditional networks remain more popular overall, Baier's program is gaining traction in various markets, driven partly by declining trust in mainstream media. CBS’s recent anchor change has failed to boost its viewership, signaling the evolving dynamics of media consumption in America.
In the second Trump administration, Fox News's evening newscast, Special Report, hosted by Bret Baier, has begun to consistently outperform CBS Evening News.
The audience for ABC, CBS, and NBC nightly newscasts is still larger overall, but Bret Baier is edging closer, surpassing CBS in recent weeks.
Significant drops in trust toward traditional media have contributed to the growth of Fox News, alongside its increasingly favorable program lineup for Trump supporters.
As CBS adjusts to a new format following Norah O’Donnell's exit, it has seen its audience numbers fall even further in the competitive landscape.
