The leftists over at CNN have always been their own biggest fans.
But over the past year, they’ve been served a massive dose of reality with tanking viewership numbers.
And CNN executives wanted to crawl under the boardroom table when they heard this embarrassing news.
CNN more or less created the 24/7 news cycle.
They were the first major cable news network to go head-to-head with legacy network news organizations including ABC, CBS, and NBC.
Now, they’ve been slapped with the ultimate embarrassing news.
When Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election—and proceeded to make good on his promise to start draining The Swamp—something snapped inside leftist newsrooms.
The result has been a manic downward spiral proving that Bernard Goldberg was dead-on when he wrote Bias more than 20 years ago: members of the media aren’t merely veering off course at times.
Instead, the corporate-controlled media is packed to the gills with people so skewed in their thinking that their idea of where “center” is would cause Karl Marx to do a double take.
Of course, that view doesn’t even come close to reflecting the views of Americans.
This country has been divided almost exactly down the middle since hanging chads had conservatives holding their breath lest Al Gore take over our lives.
For decades, leftist members of the media managed to hold their noses discreetly and pretend they were providing balanced coverage.
But after Donald Trump won his bid for the White House, they got way too honest about how they really felt.
As long as Donald Trump was in office, Americans watched the train wreck happening over at CNN in fascination.
But once CNN took on the arduous project of pretending Joe Biden is a sane and competent leader, their viewers had every reason to abandon ship.
Now, CNN is not only getting its tail kicked by Fox News on a daily basis—Newsmax is also cleaning up by beating Ted Turner’s baby at its own game.
On Friday, May 6 Newsmax broadcast Donald Trump’s Pennsylvania rally drawing a stunning 738,000 viewers.
Meanwhile, the best CNN could muster was 645,000 viewers with Anderson Cooper 360.
Getting whipped by Fox News is a painful reality CNN executives have been forced to get used to facing on a daily basis.
Tucker Carlson pulled 2.85 viewers that night while The Five attracted 3.15 million viewers.
Americans are done getting their marching orders from a bunch of arrogant looney leftists who couldn’t care less about issues that truly matter to them.
