The liberal media’s downfall is accelerating as Americans turn off outlets that have spent years pushing left-wing narratives instead of honest news. Network giants like CNN are now experiencing ratings disasters that would have been unthinkable a decade ago. With primetime viewership sinking to a humiliating 538,000—a record low—CNN is seeing the consequences of prioritizing political agenda over factual reporting. MSNBC fares no better, stumbling through its weakest summer since 1998, a glaring signal that everyday viewers simply aren’t buying what the liberal media is selling.
In stark contrast, Fox News continues to dominate. “Jesse Watters Primetime” and other unapologetically conservative programming have kept millions of viewers engaged, providing the direct, reality-based commentary Americans hunger for. Greg Gutfeld’s meteoric rise in the late-night scene further proves how audiences crave wit and common-sense perspectives, not sanctimonious lectures from legacy outlets that refuse to see where they went wrong.
The decline of CNN continues as the network has reached an all-time ratings low. And fellow left-wing network MSNBC has also recorded record lows.

While entire neighborhoods burned, CNN and MSNBC downplayed and excused criminal chaos—the kind of reporting that insulted Americans’ intelligence and destroyed trust. When the facts don’t fit the narrative, these networks twist reality, and viewers have had enough.
The disconnect grows wider when networks like MSNBC spend airtime praising President Biden as vigorous and sharp, when anyone with working eyes can see the exact opposite. It only reinforces the sense that these networks are nothing more than mouthpieces for the Democratic establishment, selling a sanitized fantasy oblivious to the real concerns of hardworking Americans.
With ratings in free fall, the question is not whether these liberal networks will recover—it's whether people will even remember them in a few years. The American public has awakened to the blatant bias and incompetence; increasingly, they seek out news sources that tell it like it is, not how the D.C. elite wishes things to be. The collapse of the liberal media isn’t just poetic justice for years of misinformation—it’s a turning point for truth in American journalism.
