Fox News Channel was by far the most-watched TV news outlet last week for coverage of the 2024 Republican National Convention. Not only did FNC set primetime cable news audience record last week, the network’s late night-style program Gutfeld! saw an equally impressive trend last week during a special start time.
During its first live shows in program history, Gutfeld!, which usually airs weekdays at 10 p.m. ET, delivered its most-watched week ever in total viewers, the A25-54 TV news demo and the A18-49 entertainment programming demo: 3,253,000; 643,000 and 432,000, respectively. That’s according to Nielsen live-plus-same-day data.
Last week’s post-primetime edition Gutfeld! averaged more viewers than 11 p.m. late-night program The Daily Show, 11:35 p.m. late-night programs, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and Jimmy Kimmel Live!, along with 12:35 a.m. offerings Late Night with Seth Meyers, and After Midnight.
Gutfeld! started at 11 p.m. ET on Monday, July 15; 11:25 p.m. ET on Tuesday, July 16; 11:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday, July 17; and 12:30 a.m. on the convention’s final night — Thursday, July 18, 2024.
Since its launch in April 2021, Gutfeld! has continued to increase its audience across the board and is the No. 1 cable news program in the A25-54 and A18-49 demographics, year to-date.
Please don’t ever report on this asshole. It’s not a real show. Fox News is not a real network. It exists to make right-wing propaganda. Don’t help them do their job.
