The short story is that fewer than half of Biden supporters are "Very enthusiastic" about supporting him compared to 65 percent of Trump supporters, who identify as "Very enthusiastic."
On Monday night, the NBA playoffs trounced convention coverage on all three over-the-air networks combined.
The first night of the virtual 2020 Democratic National Convention was largely a snoozefest and that was reflected in its dismal TV ratings, which tanked compared to the opening festivities of 2016.Among the six, MSNBC drew the most eyes during the 10 p.m. hour, with 5.1 million viewers.
Overall when including cable news numbers released by Nielsen late Thursday afternoon, the second night of the Democratic convention attracted 18.2 million viewers, down two percent from Monday night's 18.6 million.
MSNBC led the way on the cable news front with 4.6 million viewers from 8:00 pm to 11:00 pm ET. CNN was second in total viewers with 3.6 million, followed by Fox News with 3.5 million.
Democrats are claiming a total audience of 28 million - if you include all those online viewers.
It was only 0.2 for CBS. My theory on voters tuning in to this "America's Got No Talent" TV show is that it's just bad reality TV. Americans are a discerning folk and the Democratic convention as "Must-watch" TV is like a cross between a bad episode of the Bachelor and a good episode of Marriage Boot Camp.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
