President Donald Trump speaks from the South Lawn of the White House on the fourth day of the Republican National Convention, Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020, in Washington.
A week earlier, Nielsen said 24.6 million people were watching Biden accept the Democratic nomination for president. Over four nights this year, Democrats averaged 21.6 million television viewers while Republicans had 19.4 million. Democrats had more viewers on three of the four nights, with Tuesday the only exception, Nielsen said.
Similarly, the left-leaning MSNBC reached an average of 5.74 million viewers for coverage of the Democrats anchored by Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid and Nicolle Wallace. For the Republicans, the three anchors had a 1.7 million average, Nielsen said. Pace was an advantage this year. The productions, which ran with very few noticeable glitches, moved swiftly with shorter speeches and little dead time. That was an adjustment for television networks, which generally could count on dead time and long-winded speakers so their analysts had time to talk.
Sure they did. Believe the main stream media.... they have fiction rather than facts...
Most of us were laughing
You have to believe FAKENEWS, which is truly the enemy of the people, to believe this bullshit
Because leftists watch too much TV.
And that means what?
Liar liar pants on fire
Fake news purposely not including online views. Total views TV + online: Republicans = 147 million democrats 120 million Total fundraising: Republicans $76 million democrats $70 million
Hey most of the Nba was on LeBron time
The Biden regurge-fest? Same speech he gave in 2008 running for VP. Nobody on the 4 day endless zoom call could give him an original idea! 47 years of milking the system an accomplishing Nada-Joe Biden trump2020
AP, your bias is showing.
Who gives a f..k
Fake news
B. S.
But what about online streaming? This is just one comparison.
AP lies and lies and lies
Well good for him: 'Republican National Convention brought in 147.9 million total views across television & online between Monday and the end of Thursday night's programming' 'DNC convention, had 122 million total viewers through television and online.
Overall, the ratings for the conventions has Trump winning by a landslide! You guys are clowns 🤡 🤣 😂
Inaccurate since C-Span, OANN and others were not countedin those totals.
theschnittshow Check your facts Todd.
It’s a lie
Of course they did on the mainstream channels. All the smart people were watching the RNC2020 on OAN or C-Span to avoid the rhetoric.
If correct, they watched to see if JoeBiden was lucid or not. dnc DNC it’s beyond pathetic at this point.
Because Trump is a loser, that's why
That won't get Biden elected. Americans as a majority see whats happening. We will re-elect our president.
I didn’t watch Trump ...... But I did listen to it on YouTube .....
People want to hear and know the truth
Although these numbers do not reflect the actual views, I fail to see why these numbers matter? The only numbers that matter are those of the electoral college, which will be won by realDonaldTrump, easily.
That does not mean all those watcher's want him to wi.
Anyone that believes these stats will never accept that CorruptNews manipulates facts to fit their narrative.
Now include streaming numbers
Haha
147.9M views across TV/digital – 25M more than Biden/DNC. $76M raised for RNC & TeamTrump – $6M more than Biden/DNC. RNC2020 told voters real stories from real Americans who benefited from realDonaldTrump’s policies – and it clearly resonated!
Misleading people again. More views in totality for RNC
China bots logging into the stream?
So I guess there’s no need to vote now since the winner has been determined right AP?
This is an absolute joke....
Someone is not boasting about his ratings. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Hey realDonaldTrump you were a ratings bust. No one wanted to watch you.
Stop your lies we the people know the truth
We all watched online to avoid the FakeNews talking heads. 👍 Check the online numbers on the C-SPAN YouTube page. The RNC blew away the DNC. Big time. Trump2020Landslide
You conveniently fail to mention that the RNC destroyed the DNC in total viewers, including online streaming. This is 2020, guys!
We don't watch main stream. Good to know lots on the left watched the RNC! Hopefully they'll wake up and WalkAway2020
LoL media
FakeNewsMedia
So you cherry pick what you consider 'viewership' and apparently streaming online doesn't count. No matter how much you lie, manipulate, and twists facts you will hear from us 3 Nov!
this is such a naive lie that it’s not even funny! I remember how Killary Clinton was ahead of Trump in all ratings and press mentions. And where did she end up? Wrote a book! Ahahahaaa!
In 2016, the ratings of the GOP convention were much higher than those of the DNC convention, and yet all experts were saying Hillary would win easily.
Highly doubtful.
realDonaldTrump
On your fake news media networks maybe. We have other networks or online channels we watch.
ratings make sense. Lots of interest from both parties to see Harris and Biden, esp. Biden, wondering if his memory lapses would occur. As for Trump, those that hate him were not going to watch. With TheDemocrats registration edge, the DNC should of had higher
Fake news
Now do streaming which is where the President’s supporters watch 🤦♀️
Do you feel the panic in this tweet? In the past, I honestly would have given more credence to a statement of this nature BUT 2016 was really the breaking point. Remember those +98% polls? You should know better. Please let's see those other numbers you so conveniently OMITTED
Fake news
Hope the votes for biden will be much more so there is no mistake who got most Electoral votes
I only watched the RNC for the trainwrecks.
Ofcourse ppl want entertainment.... What a better entertainer than presidential candidate with dementia
I tried watching on TV but the pundits kept interrupting so I streamlined it on Cspan.
AP is bs on the viewer numbers, in 21st century how does you miscounting the online viewer are you discriminating those viewers?
Now add all the people like me that watched it online coming nine last night.
Such BS
Bullsh!t. RNC had 20 MILLION more total views than dnc. More outright lies from communist media. Change your name to Pravda, already.
1 problem... Trump had 600% more online viewers.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣OK. Thanks.
I would say that The Associated Piss is fake news...
Fake news again
Nonsense.
It was a rare appearance by Joe “Hiden” Biden.
They left out fox business, OAN, Newsmax and C Span. Please. There is no way more people watched Biden over Trump
That’s because everyone likes hearing fiction. Watching the democrats is like watching the Oscars. Patting themselves on the back.
Hmmm. I wonder what possible natural disaster was going on that night ?
A lot of us tuned into the Dem convention just to see the extent they would go to to misinform America. We were not disappointed. Likewise, had to watch Joe Biden to see if he was able to stand for 20 minutes & read from a teleprompter without using his hand to finger follow.
Just because you put it in print does not make the lie believable
And just in AP says Hillary Clinton will win 2016 election.
RNC= 143 million between livestream and networks. They thrashed the DNC, fake news.
That mean more people were laughing at his speech.
Lies Wow disgraceful 🤮🤥🤥🤮 We are not deaf dumb and blind !!!🧐 Corrupt media wow you should be ashamed !!👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Aww mann somebody’s going have a tantrum...pray for Melania 🥴🤣🤦🏾♂️
That’s because everyone was amazed he actually spoke we had to watch
Given the vagaries of TV ratings, pretty close to a draw re closing speeches.
I don’t believe that for a minute!!!!
Riggghhhtttt....
Was c span including it this figure or was this just major new channels. A lot of people watched on C Span without interruption.
The actual number was 21.6mil at GOP
It's going to be a close election.
Do your research, their ALL a bunch of crooks. There isn't a politician, foundation,organization leader or advocate,that isn't a multi millionaire. And they keep getting richer sitting in their walled in compounds using All of us as their pawns to do so.
That is because the Democrats are drones. They would sit and watch a photo of Biden on the screen for 6 hours a night.
theschnittshow I don’t believe it.
Interesting. I wonder what the real numbers are since we are all playing politics at this point.
For Trump, this may be worse than losing an election.
LMAO! AP with the FakeNews
Some of us were watching for a good laugh!
Standard is really set to low nowadays because we're talking about who got the higher TV ratings between the Trampism and DNC convention.
I'd say the numbers are higher if FOX news did not air the DemocraticNationalConvention
There was a catastrophic HURRICANE!!!!!!!!!
That’s because we have jobs.
Lol most people stream and don't watch TV
Yes we trust all the “factual” information given to us by the six or seven corporations that control all of the news. Manure.
Truth...No one was watching DNC’s poorly produced convention. Media is trying to hype it up. If you have brain cells, you can easily figure out but media is ignoring the facts
Views- delete immediately; most networks didn’t even air Trump!
🤫 don’t tell IngrahamAngle
FakeNewsAlert
So basically, only 15% of the population wanted to listen to politics for 8 nights. More to do in our busy lives.
If it’s anything like the electoral college, the democrats lose again
Everyone was watching to see if Biden could remember his lines or where he was.
Fake news.
Network How snout online and cable
I watched also, BC I wanted to see for myself how far his cognitive decline had advanced. Nothing to do w/Mr. Biden the candidate.
Bragging? That’s a Trump skill. He is the master of that game!
You shouldn’t give the Marxist false hope. 20 million of Bidens viewers were there for the entertainment value.
So Biden won the popular view. What about the electoral view?
BS...Liberal MEDIA stopped showing the conventions or interrupted. MEDIA BS as usual!
Popular vote always wins; electoral votes are questionable
So realDonaldTrump is a LOSER
Joe Biden is scared shitless of Donald trump.
🥳
But I watched both. I like watching liberal nonsense. It’s fun.
Republicans no longer watch TV ! Why would you want to watch every show and commercial insult white men, pushing mixed race /same sex relationships 24/7 ?
We all wanted to laugh at Uncle Joe.
For some reason I don’t believe the AP !! Fake News Media!!
OH NO! WHAT SHALL WE DO!
Most of us watched it on the internet because we have cancelled our tv provider. No reason to watch all the fake news, overpaid athletes and whiny actors that think we care about their opinions.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wait 24 hours....
Most Republicans avoided the network coverage due to biased commentary. They watched via streaming and or CSPAN. I'd bet the streaming numbers favor the RNC.
Why doesn’t have any internet numbers
