Trump's Election Victory Shakes Up TV News Ratings

The 2024 U.S. presidential election results led to significant shifts in television news viewership, with Fox News emerging as a clear leader.

Fox News dominated the election week, becoming the most-watched network across all television with 2.6 million total day viewers.
MSNBC experienced a dramatic 54% drop in primetime viewership following Trump's victory, struggling to retain its audience.
NBC's 'Today' show maintained its top spot in morning news, experiencing significant viewership growth during election week.
Fox News' election night coverage attracted nearly 13.6 million viewers, outperforming all other networks and setting new viewership records.
