It is official. Newsmax TV surpassed both Fox Business and CNBC in daytime ratings the day after Election Day.

Nielsen reported Wednesday that Newsmax drew 287,000 average viewers per minute in the key daypart 9am to 4pm, outpacing CNBC with 285,000 viewers and Fox Business with 281,000.

Newsmax also outpaced Fox Business in primetime, with 205,000 viewers compared to 138,000.

--------

The Nielsen rating only tells part of the story. OTT viewership on platforms like YouTube added an additional 100,000 per minute live viewers tuned into Newsmax TV on Wednesday.

"We're in less cable homes, our channel position is usually not as good as competitors, and our brand is less known, yet we're beating these guys," Chris Ruddy, CEO of Newsmax TV said. "We have a better mousetrap and viewers are flocking to us."

Ruddy noted Newsmax's new programming lineup, including shows like "Greg Kelly Reports" and Sean Spicer's "Spicer & Co." only started this year.

"Our trajectory is like a rocket right now," Ruddy said.

Good stuff. Any news medium that decides that it cannot be objective and consider all aspects of a news event needs to wither on the vine.

Haven't watched Fox News since Election Night. Deleted the app off my phone.

Newsmax is great.

Calling Arizona for Biden far too early is honestly?

Calling the election for Biden knowing that multiple states are headed towards mandatory recounts and the Trump campaign is filing lawsuits left and right similar to the 2000 campaign where the challenger ended up victorious is "honesty"?

Well, you're a leftist so I'm not surprised that would be your definition of "honesty."

Get woke, go broke.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

When they called Arizona but refused to call Florida or Ohio, they lost all credibility.

I like Newsmax, I don't love newsmax, but they are getting my support. Their production value is a little low but I assume the influx of viewers can help that.

I have thought many times that the commercials running right now on newsmax are a great value, they booked those for a few viewers and got way more exposure than they paid for.

Those cleft pallet kids are gonna be rolling in the money, good for them.

You do realize that Fox Business is not the same as Fox News right? They are two separate channels. Get back to me when Newsmax beats Fox News in the ratings.

Viewership across all the networks was down about 14 million from 2016, and FOX still crushed it and set a record for viewership (most watched cable news network in history for the night).

People just want fair and balanced news.

Edit: most people that is.

FOX News has become the Drudge Report of cable tv.

Other than some of the night time hosts, it's gone full blown left. Almost as unwatchable as CNN.

It means we know Soros owns us now....only Tucker and Hannity would ever call out his name. The daytime guests would get shut down real quick whenever his name came up.

They've pacified Tucker a little bit over there at Fox News compared to the way he was originally.

Some of that is good, I suppose. But...

The report mentions Fox Business, completely different channel.

He's made plenty of money. Maybe he'll take a pay cut to appear on a less visible platform for the home team.

No. It's confirmation bias aimed to sell advertising to a different audience.

It's always been confirmation bias.

Now it gives a tiny dose of reality and you're all taking your ball and going home m

FOX News served as the SCOTUS's John Roberts in the Election Day news cycle. Played as "conservative" until a big decision/reporting had to be made that could truly affect this nation, then goes Left when it counted.

FOX News is the Benedict Arnold of cable news, and should be treated as such.
"Green" is the new RED.
