Things are not going the way former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo wants them to just months after being fired by the cable news giant.
Cuomo, who had one of the highest-rated shows on CNN when he was fired, was a rating flop in his debut for News Nation with only approximately 147,000 viewers, the Washington Examiner reported. In the key 25-54 demographic he only drew around 8,000 viewers.
Additionally, syndicated show reruns, such as Paw Patrol, SpongeBob, and Seinfeld, reportedly drew a greater audience among the 25-54 demographic and among total viewers. Fox News’s Tucker Carlson Tonight continued to lead the prime-time spot’s ratings with nearly 2.9 million total viewers — more than 20 times the viewership of what Cuomo drew. CNN’s Anderson Cooper came in second, and MSNBC’s All In hosted by Chris Hayes placed third.
