The audience for the six-hour proceeding, while larger than average weekday viewing, fell short of the TV audience for other recent political events that riveted the country. In July 2017, about 19.5 million Americans tuned in when former FBI Director James Comey testified to the Senate Intelligence Committee about his dealings with Trump, according to Nielsen data from 10 networks.
Duh
On the first day of the televised ImpeachmentHearings The vast majority of Americans watched the most Popular TV News Channel ~~ Fox News ~~ It ranked 1 FoxNews, the favorite among Trump and other Republicans
Did they count those of us who watched THE ENTIRE THING when it re-ran from 6 to 11:30?
Reuters should know better. Can you say internet ? Iiiin-ter-neeeeeeet.
We have lost faith in the process. The facts are known and it is in the hands of the Senate who has said they will ignore the evidence.
It’s a farce and most people have day jobs.
Who cares about ratings? This isn't a television show but a government hearing. People are at work, on computers, tablets, and phones. I'm on my tablet. My sister was on her laptop. Get into the 21st Century
What do you expect? That Americans would actually care enough about their democracy to pay attention when it's literally failing right before it's eyes?
It's because it's not important to people. We all know it's not going anywhere.
Republicans are basically ignoring it, where as with Kav, you had both sides watching. Nothing worth noting really in there.
Weekday. Two weeks before Thanksgiving. Your headline is misleading.
Maybe some of us are watching on phones & computers.
😂😂😂😂😂
Democrats NEVER learn
That’s gotta hurt for Democrats hoping to gin up their anti-Trump base. It suggests that people know it’s all a show without substance, designed in advance simply to justify a party-line vote, using a patently unfair procedure.
The truth from the beginning about Ukraine glennbeck explains with documents to back. CNN won’t investigate or report facts. HERE’s the facts. Do your own research.
Who watches regular tv?
tdzwilewski The smart people know he's a crook and the rest don't gaf. As long as he hates and scapegoats the same people they hate, they're good.
FreeCitizen33 People work for a living! The viewing audience will increase.
These are working days for most people & work radio would be contentious. Hence post real time reporting is vital.
Weirdly, Trump will hate this
It'll pick up....just wait.
Political fatigue is indeed a factor. And then there's the fear that nothing will come of it, which would worsen the tragedy that is Donald Trump.
People have to work. We can't stay home and watch the republican shit show trying to protect the criminal in the White House.
Haha
Working...and listening. And, some of us are actually reading.
Seriously, this is your focus? 🤦🏻♀️
Most people watching the hearings aren't doing so on TV (which is an outdated legacy medium). Those numbers are terribly misleading, and its dangerously misleading to report them as an indication of the total audience for the hearing.
Reuters, stop it. Just stop it.
They're sick of it. Kavanaugh Comey and now this, three strikes and the dems are out
People do work
