On election night, Fox News dominated ratings with 10.3 million viewers from 8 to 11 p.m. Eastern time, marking a significant lead over its competitors. CNN, hosted by Warner Bros. Discovery, drew only 5.1 million viewers, and for the first time, it fell behind MSNBC, which had 6 million viewers. The viewership across television networks was substantially decreased compared to the previous presidential election cycle, reflecting a changing audience behavior where traditional TV viewing is declining, especially among younger viewers.
