MSNBC May Take The No. 1 Spot!

Gaining.

The folks over at Fox are losing their goddamn minds over the Washed Up 45 indictment.

Special prosecutor Jack Smith has announced on Tuesday that the former president faced four criminal charges for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Fox is calling this an attack on the freedom of speech. The network believes we are living in a "Banana Republic".

And while they're crowing over at Fox, MSNBC is gaining momentum. 

MSNBC, the only network to broadcast special coverage of the indictment, swept overall primetime figures as the No. 1 most-watched cable news channel. Fox came in second place with 2.19 million total viewers, while CNN lagged behind with 1.06 million viewers, according to Nielsen-live-plus-same-day figures. 

The trend continued in the demo for primetime, with MSNBC leading the pack with 350,000 viewers in the key cable demographic among adults 25-54. Fox came in second with 279,000 viewers, and CNN came in third with 208,000 viewers in the demo. 

In the words of Stephanie Ruble, "Let's get smarter."

The network has seen a ratings boom in the last few weeks and it maybe safe to say that MSNBC may be the No. 1 cable news network. The progressive agitators on the network are effective in messaging.

MSNBC was in special coverage mode to detail the charges outlined in the indictment brought against the former President. The network’s special coverage was led by Rachel Maddow, Ari Melber, Joy Reid, Chris Hayes, Alex Wagner, Lawrence O’Donnell and Stephanie Ruhle. 

From 4pm until 12am, you can watch Nicolle Wallace, Ari Melber, Joy Reid, Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow, Alex Wagner, Lawrence O'Donnell and Stephanie Ruble. On weekends, you have Ali Velshi, Katie Phang, Jonathan Capehart, Rev. Al Sharpton, Ayman Mohyeldin and Alicia Menendez doing their best to help. I can't forget Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Willie Gest, Jonathan Lemire, Anna Cabrera, Jose Diaz-Balart, Chris Jensing, Katy Tur, Alex Witt, Yasmin Vossoughian and Mehdi Hasan.

Adding Jen Psaki and Symone Sanders Townsend also helps.

So the network is trying to bring in more viewers who are supportive of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris' agenda. They are hitting back at Republicans and Fox for years of peddling misinformation, conspiracy theories and culture wars.

I became more supportive of the network. I gotten tired of this noise of the far right.

Need sanity.
