‘Morning Joe’ & MSNBC ratings tank after election

The viewing figures for Morning Joe and other MSNBC shows don't appear to be getting any better following the fallout of Donald Trumps presidential election victory in November. In a report from rival network Fox News, based on figures from Nielsen Media Research, Morning Joe is down 35% among total viewers, averaging 720,000, and down 37% in the key 25-54 demographic. As previously reported, the morning show hosted by Joe Scarborough and Mike Brzezinski saw a dip in ratings following their meeting with Trump. The Monday, November 20 episode, where the hosts discussed their meeting with the president-elect, brought in 839,000 total viewers and 113,000 viewers in the 25-54 demo, while the Tuesday, November 21 episode dropped to 680,000 total viewers and 76,000 in the key demo.

Other MSNBC shows aren't faring so well, however. As reported by Fox News, Alex Wagner Tonight, Inside with Jen Psaki, and The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell all recently hit record lows.

Post election, don't people go back to their distractions? Is the point of this story to show Right-wing tribalism is right because it is popular?

I stopped listening to morning joe after they went down and kissed the ring of the King of the Dotards.

Personally I prefer the talking heads who are NOT arse kissers.
