  • Ratings for the No. 2 and No. 3 cable news networks have plummeted since Donald Trump's victory, while Fox News remains the leader.

The article from The Wall Street Journal discusses the significant impact of former President Donald Trump on cable news ratings, particularly for MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News. Trump's presence in the news cycle has historically driven high viewership, with his legal battles and political activities continuing to draw viewers even after his presidency. However, with Trump less in the spotlight, these networks are experiencing a ratings slump. MSNBC, which saw a surge in viewership during Trump's term, has struggled to maintain those numbers, with its prime-time shows like "All In With Chris Hayes" and "The Rachel Maddow Show" seeing declines. CNN, despite its efforts to pivot towards more neutral reporting, has also seen a drop in viewership, especially after the departure of key figures like Chris Cuomo. Fox News, while still leading in ratings, has not been immune to the downturn, particularly as Trump's influence wanes and the network navigates its own internal changes and viewer expectations. The article suggests that without Trump's daily drama, these networks are finding it challenging to retain their audience, leading to a broader discussion on the future of cable news in a post-Trump era.
