VHSgoodiesWA 281 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 NewsNation SHOULD HAVE stopped regular programming and AT LEAST SIMULCAST WGN-9 when the announcement broke out... But they didn't. What a joke of a 'network'. Poor Dan Abrams, Marni Hughes, and Leland Vittert. Whenever the time comes to jump ship, do it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJonNews 94 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 (edited) Dan Abrams I can do without, thank you very much. I don't need that "Us vs. The World" narrative on my screens anymore, especially after applying it to, of all things, a somber moment from three days ago that literally everyone but NewsNation was covering. I do feel sorry for Marni Hughes, though. (This, by the way, is coming from someone who's watched the channel exactly three times ever since NewsNation started out; twice in the first two days of its life, and once three days ago.)

CLETVFan 363 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I'm surprised that the Live PD revival ended up on Reelz instead of NewsNation given that Abrams is on NN. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only assume Nexstar execs wanted no part of it. Especially considering that A&E is taking legal action against Reelz for "copying" Live PD, I'm assuming that played a role into Nexstar taking a pass on the show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLETVFan 363 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Sounds like A&E was looking to revive Live PD before Reelz launched the new show. As for NewsNation, I read that Elizabeth Vargas is filling-in for a week on the channel, but I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up with a regular gig on the network. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VHSgoodiesWA 281 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Well, it looks like NewsNation will air the state funeral for the Queen. At least they did something right, heh? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJonNews 94 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Well, it took them long enough, but NewsNation is indeed airing the state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II like the other news outlets instead of doing what they always do when it comes to huge breaking news (miss it habitually, which I honestly was expecting them to do since it's been made clear up until now that they couldn't do anything right). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowBergen 485 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Interesting. I’m visiting RI. Neither the Nexstar station (CBS) nor the Sinclair station (NBC) are yet (as of 6:30 am). Standard Media’s ABC station is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLETVFan 363 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 NewsNation ran the entire speech from former President Trump at a rally in Ohio this past weekend. This is the same network that didn't cover a lot of breaking news events. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJonNews 94 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) Personally, I don't really consider a Trump rally worthy of breaking news or live coverage, in my opinion, since my consensus of Donald Trump as president is... well... to put it nicely, the opposite of thumbs up. Back on topic, NewsNation has a group of former Fox News people at the helm, including Bill Shine. Of course they're going to go to live coverage of a Trump rally! It's not that surprising. And of course, the Trump rally is within news programming. Would they be doing that if it wasn't? Yes. Any other news besides "You-know-who's Cavalcade of You-know-whats" that actually do warrant live coverage outside of their news hours? Not a chance.

CLETVFan 363 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 It appears that NN is about to lean more right. If that is the case, then they should not promote themselves as "unbiased." They had dropped the ball a lot when it came to breaking news coverage (even Newsmax and Fox News covered Queen Elizabeth's death), but only choosing what to cover and what not to makes them a joke. (BTW, they probably get more ratings with Blue Bloods reruns than any of the newscasts) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably had to give the Campmeeting guy and Joseph Prince make-goods though; I wouldn't be shocked if they got higher ratings at 5am than the primetime lineup does on a dead news day. But hiring scandal-plagued anchors and covering non-newsworthy stories looks really bad when you have a station afflicted by multiple issues/scandals already as-is end up like this last night: Edited September 19, 2022 by mrschimpf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 609 Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Taking a look at NewsNation's schedule for the first time in forever, I can't help but notice that there's no longer an 11pm ET live show. Does anyone know when that got eliminated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJonNews 94 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) "Cuomo" premieres tonight at 8pm Eastern on NewsNation. And big news (that we missed, because we thought NewsNation would carry on as if nothing happened): NewsNation preempted all of its programming just under a week ago to devote coverage to Hurricane Ian. https://tvnewscheck.com/journalism/article/newsnation-preempts-programming-to-devote-full-day-coverage-to-hurricane-ian/ We could have covered it sooner, but because this is NewsNation we're talking about (the network that habitually neglects important news that happens outside of their news programming hours)...

CLETVFan 363 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 The fact that now I have heard about NewsNation (actually) preempting regular programming for Hurricane coverage shows how little the channel has been impacting viewership. I wonder how the ratings were for that day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalItalian2 163 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) Chris Cuomo premiere only achieves 8000 in-demo viewers (147,000 overall). Absolutely pathetic.

DJonNews 94 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) As expected... dead last among all the competition in the demo. And for added paltriness, here's how it looks like in the demo... "Eric Bolling: The Balance" on Newsmax - 16,000 viewers in the 25-54 demo "CUOMO" on NewsNation - 8,000 viewers in the 25-54 demo ...and when it comes to total viewership: "Eric Bolling: The Balance" on Newsmax - 151,000 total viewers "CUOMO" on NewsNation - 147,000 total viewers "The Balance" outranked the "CUOMO" premiere in the demo, and it outranked the "CUOMO" premiere in overall viewership. https://www.forbes.com/sites/markjoyella/2022/10/04/chris-cuomos-return-to-prime-time-lands-in-last-place-at-8pm/?sh=2f5d85a03d95 Not a good start so far for Cuomo on NewsNation. Then again, what do you expect? It is NewsNation, after all. Edited October 4, 2022 by DJonNews 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VHSgoodiesWA 281 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 And even worse...2,000 people 25-54 sipped their coffee in front of the TV as they witnessed the start of another "Morning in America." Adrienne Bankert ought to be ashamed of herself. Even Bozo in full costume would get 10,000 more AM viewers. Consider this: that's 40 people in a single state watching this program!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
