Saw the following headline in Forbes:
"Fox News Nearly Sweeps Top 100 Highest-Rated Cable Telecasts In August."
According to the article, Tucker Carlson got an average of 3.3 million viewers.
Among viewers 25-54, the key demographic group for advertisers, Tucker Carlson Tonight finished first with an average audience of 551,000
So I looked at what his numbers were back in October of 2020.
Overall viewership:
Carlson - 6.315 million
Among viewers 25-54
Carlson - 1.245 million
Edit: Someone astutely pointed out that ratings are typically higher before a presidential election.
Here's some numbers from April of 2020 that should serve as a better indicator:

From when Carlson eclipsed Hannity as their top draw:
Nielsen Media Research showed Hannity with an average of 4.4 million viewers and 809,000 in the all-important 25-54 age demographic.
On the other hand, Tucker Carlson averaged 4.6 million viewers and 885,000 in the 25-54 demographic. April was Tucker Carlson’s highest-rated month in both categories.
Still a significant decrease.
Fox News lost MY household permanently. WE won't be back.
I don't watch Fox News or listen to anyone associated with it. They are done.
Same here.
I'm proud of you and your family.
If everyone felt the way you do, Fox news would be done.
They would do the exact same thing to us again - in a heartbeat.
Same over here. My mom was diehard fox news and I would watch tucker occasionally. Haven't watched since and I was even able to get my mom to stop watching
Heck ya! Starve them out. I think most people who watched Faux News election night coverage, especially them calling AZ, are no longer viewers.
We occasionally do Tuckers opening monologue, but only if there's something going on like Afghanistan.
Everyone is jumping to frankspeech.com
WTF is wrong with the 1/2 still watching? Retards.
Probably old people. My in-laws watch TV all the time and it's constantly on Fox. It's maddening.
Well you are not wrong. Considering the viewership lost by the other channels, they probably switched to Fox, hence the numbers. Honestly, you have to be retarded to watch things like CNN or MSNBC. So for them, this is a radical shift as their bodies slowly begin to acclimate to ingesting some actual truth.
Yeh, you raise a good point, it very well could be "shifters". I guess FOX is slightly better that the Communist News Network anyway.
Who can watch Hannity.
Honestly, I think they don't care. All of MSM is being financed. Losing viewers doesn't matter to them.
Probably getting enormous funds from the 1%.
Their audience is not missing them.
FUCK FOX
Good. Fuck em. Still watch Tucker, Laura, and Gutfeld tho.
The afternoon line can all go suck a dick right behind Hannity ... that cockgobblers voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I'd rather listen to my libtard mother in law for an hour than that windbag.
Fox is fucking up. They need to harvest my man Jesse Kelly as quickly as possible. That dude is the realio dealio
