Tuesday Broadcast Ratings: MLB All Star Game Had More than Twice the Viewers as RNC

Watching the Republican National Convention?

Nope. That’s the answer for everyone but Fox News viewers. The convention has been of little interest in TV land.

On Tuesday night, the three major networks averaged 2 million viewers apiece for the RNC at 10pm.

Ironically, the MLB All Star Game — shown on Fox TV stations — picked up 4.63 million viewers.

The only numbers for the RNC are on Fox News, and they’re sinking night by night. Between Monday and Tuesday, Fox News lost 1 million viewers. Only about 5.5 million tuned in Tuesday night to see the rogues gallery of anti-Americans give their spiels.

Last night’s numbers will be in soon.

Tonight is the big RNC finale. Trump will appear on stage with a white Kotex bandage on his ear, and talk about getting shot, and Biden being too old. He won’t mention his own 34 felony convictions, or how he killed 1 million Americans during COVID.

By the way, the American League beat the National League 5 to 3.
