60 Minutes Nabs Bigger Audience Than Trumps Sunday Night Briefing on 3 Cable News Networks
Nearly 9.9 million people tuned into the CBS newsmagazine, while a combined 9.0 million watched POTUS briefing

President Donald Trump may have hoped to upstage 60 Minutes with a last-minute televised coronavirus briefing on Sunday night, but the CBS newsmagazine drew a bigger audience.
60 Minutes, which included a critical report from Scott Pelley on the pandemics impact on the U.S. economy, scored 9.855 total million viewers on Sunday from 7 to 8 p.m. ET just ahead of the 9.03 million who tuned in for the first hour of Trumps live press briefing on CNN, MSNBC and Fox News combined, according to Live + Same Day data from Nielsen.
We should note here that comparing broadcast and cable networks TV ratings is tricky, since broadcast reaches more people than subscription-based cable. And comparing the numbers put up by a broadcast show like 60 Minutes to a presidential press conference airing across multiple cable news channels is harder still.

(9,426 posts)He knows NOTHING, and spouts off about how great he is. I can not stand the "man" The gop should be ashamed of the support they have given to this lunatic. He is responsible for thousands of deaths in this country, by inaction when he KNEW what was coming. It did not deter him from his golfing, or rallies. He is a disgrace not just to this country, but to the human race. An overgrown, orange, bloated, ignorant child. I LOATHE him and his entire grifting family, with a burning passion.
Every day to see if maggot or his "droppings" have come down with this crap.
As far as hating the bloated bag of pig shit your in a
Very long line.

(11,884 posts)Promoting propaganda instead of the truth is corrupt , and exposes his true intentions are to protect trump , not the American people. Don't listen to him , just watch what he's doing . Its always for him , always he's the victim, always claims others are lying , and corrupt. Never him. All while people are dying from is refusals to act , and after knowing. it would cause that to happen. His supporters are dying to, exposing him as a fraud more than ever now.

(983 posts)In northern New England, it's only on 5.3, Me tv only shows reruns of old tv shows
So it's appropriate
ABC, NBC and CBS not showing it anymore, just noticed this week, was turning it off when it came on
