Ratings and Reputation: CNN Had a Very Bad, No Good, Awful February

CNN’s reputation and brand, which was already sliding off the charts, took a tremendous hit in February, a hit the now-official Least Trusted Name In News could not afford, as it was already in last place when compared to Fox News and MSNBC. Moreover, CNN also sunk to last place in total primetime viewers.

According to an ongoing YouGov survey, CNN’s brand-collapse began back in June. As the left-wing network became even more strident and nakedly transparent in its crusade to personally destroy Donald Trump, all in an effort to make Hillary Clinton president, CNN’s descent from first place in the brand-survey, to last place, was at first a slow one. In October and November, as the Clinton News Network pulled out all the stops and kitchen sinks in its arsenal against Trump, the bottom fell out.
