For An 80-Year-Old He Can Still Draw Viewers -- October 21, 2023

Locator: 45779TV. 

Some say this was his best speech ever.

President Joe Biden‘s Oval Office address Thursday evening drew a sizable audience.

Across six broadcast networks and the three biggest cable news channels, the address — in which the president laid out the case for continued aid to Israel and Ukraine — averaged a little over 22 million viewers (22.12 million).
Broadcast networks pushed their regular primetime schedules back by about 20 minutes to air the address.

ABC drew the largest share of the the total audience with 4.65 million viewers, followed by fellow broadcasters NBC (3.57 million) and CBS (3.46 million).
Fox News led cable with 3.35 million viewers in preliminary ratings, followed by MSNBC (2.11 million), the Fox broadcast network (1.45 million) and CNN (1.4 million). Univision drew 1.27 million viewers for the address and Telemundo, 858,000.

ABC: of the three major networks, ABC is considered the most liberal.

Without question, Fox is considered the most conservative.

Having said that, among cable networks can anyone really challenge Fox News. It used to be CNN but that train left the station long ago and is now sitting on some siding waiting for Greta.

I've never considered MSNBC a news network; it's a liberal talk show.
