Man you guys are fast. They are rumored to replace one dumpster fire with another dumpster fire cast. The issue is deeper than Reid, and one the network has fostered which is a business model loser with unprofessional clowns.
Joy Reid's MSNBC show is CANCELED as ratings plummet
Amid a looming landscape of languishing cable and legacy news stations, MSNBC had their
lowest-rated Januarys in history in the highly sought 25-54 demographic.
During the hours of 8-11 p.m. ET, MSNBC barely managed an audience of 734,000, with
CNN securing just 522,000.
Talking heads ranging from Jake Tapper to Joy Reid failed to stop the bleeding - as did a move from MSNBC that brought back Rachel Maddow to TV sets five times a week, at least for the first 100 days of the new administration.
MSNBC lagged to just 45,000 viewers during the day and just 63,000 during the peak hours of night - with the Maddow experiment seemingly failing.
In terms of percentages, though, the figures were even more alarming; MSNBC essentially lost nearly half of its 25-54 audience since this time last year, continuing a 65 percent slide seen since the election.
In primetime, the network's numbers are down 41 percent from 2024. When it came to programming delivered during the day, the percentage dip was the same.
The final episode of The ReidOut is set for sometime this week.
