So with this humiliating career demotion, all he\u2019s doing now is making it official.<\/p>\n<p>But back to the ratings\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Whatever you think of Fox News \u2014 and other than a couple of people over there, I do not think much of Fox News \u2014 it\u2019s not just a cable <em>news <\/em>juggernaut, it\u2019s a cable <em>TV<\/em> juggernaut. Fox News kills in the ratings. Fox is so far ahead of MSNBC, and most especially CNN, those two left-wing outlets hardly rate as competition. Fox\u2019s only real competition is ESPN and networks like TBS and TNT. Week after week after year after year, Fox brutalizes its competition in the ratings\u2014except for \u2026 the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/09\/29\/fact-check-chris-wallace-and-joe-biden-repeat-charlottesville-very-fine-people-hoax-at-debate\/\">lying<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/clips\/2021\/01\/20\/fncs-wallace-biden-speech-was-the-best-inaugural-address-ive-ever-heard\/\">left-wing<\/a>, and utterly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/clips\/2020\/10\/16\/fncs-wallace-im-suspicious-of-ny-post-hunter-biden-story-giuliani-not-a-reliable-source\/\">useless<\/a> Chris Wallace.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>For nearly 20 years, Chris Wallace has been the one and only Fox News name brutalized in the ratings.<\/p>\n<p>Last week is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adweek.com\/tvnewser\/dec-5-sunday-show-ratings-face-the-nation-and-this-week-split-first-place\/495558\/\">perfect example<\/a>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Face the Nation<\/em>: 2.8 million viewers.<\/li>\n<li><em>Meet the Press<\/em>: 2.6 million<\/li>\n<li><em>This Week<\/em>: 2.5 million<\/li>\n<li><em>Fox News Sunday<\/em>: 1.2 million<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So I\u2019m not accused of cherry-picking, here are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adweek.com\/tvnewser\/here-are-sunday-show-ratings-for-the-2020-21-tv-season\/489644\/\">the ratings<\/a> for the 2020-2021 season:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Face the Nation<\/em>: 3.4 million<\/li>\n<li><em>Meet the Press<\/em>: 3.3 million<\/li>\n<li><em>This Week<\/em>: 3.1 million<\/li>\n<li><em>Fox News Sunday<\/em>: 1.3 million<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now, I am fully aware that <em>Fox News Sunday<\/em> is not a Fox News show. Instead, it broadcasts on the Fox broadcast network. But that\u2019s what makes Wallace\u2019s 18-year failure especially grievous. When you are riding the Fox News brand, there is no excuse for <em>Fox News Sunday<\/em> to lose to these other far-left Sunday shows, especially when <em>Fox News Sunday<\/em> enjoys the advantage of airing on a broadcast network.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19110082\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" readability=\"35\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.breitbart.com\/media\/2021\/12\/GettyImages-1089884218.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-19110082\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GettyImages-1089884218-683x1024-1.jpg\" alt width=\"276\" height=\"414\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Chris Wallace attends the Vulture Spot during Sundance Film Festival on January 26, 2019 in Park City, Utah.

It\u2019s not as though he sat in last place by a hair. This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/09\/24\/15-times-chris-wallace-went-after-trump\/\">left-wing activist<\/a> was serially humiliated.<\/p>\n<p>Wallace\u2019s failure is inexcusable, especially today when Greg Gutfeld\u2019s late-night Fox News cable show <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/entertainment\/2021\/09\/25\/nolte-greg-gutfeld-beats-every-late-night-climate-night-program\/\">regularly beats<\/a> the insufferable Stephen Colbert and the equally insufferable Jimmys\u2014who enjoy the advantage of airing on the top three broadcast networks.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for Wallace\u2019s humiliating failure is obvious. The whole Fox News brand is based on the idea that maybe the other half of the country would like to see their ideas and points of view presented as something other than racist, sexist, and crazy. Well, Chris Wallace didn\u2019t offer that. He was <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/clips\/2019\/07\/21\/fncs-chris-wallace-there-is-no-question-trump-is-stoking-racial-divisions\/\">one of them<\/a><\/em>, always <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/09\/29\/fact-check-chris-wallace-falsely-claimed-trump-is-ending-racial-sensitivity-training\/\">one of them<\/a><\/em>. Whether it was his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/clips\/2021\/06\/04\/fncs-wallace-defends-fauci-attacks-highly-political-lab-leak-emails-contain-no-smoking-gun\/\">rabid left-wing<\/a> politics, his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/clips\/2019\/09\/24\/fncs-wallace-there-is-meat-on-the-bones-of-trump-impeachment-inquiry\/\">ludicrous defense<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/clips\/2020\/10\/22\/fncs-wallace-if-hunter-story-was-true-we-would-have-seen-the-fruits-of-that-investigation-by-now\/\">establishment narratives<\/a>, or his dull choice of all the safe and usual-usual guests, Wallace offered viewers nothing new, nothing original. There are Chris Wallaces all over the dial on Sunday mornings, so why tune into <em>Fox News Sunday?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Granted, there\u2019s no reason to tune into any Sunday show. These programs are not only useless for anyone interested in becoming informed; they\u2019re just a smugger version of your average cable news hour. But that\u2019s for a different column\u2026<\/p>\n<p>What I\u2019m saying is that Fox must be thrilled to finally be rid of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/09\/30\/nolte-joe-biden-and-chris-wallace-started-it-by-interrupting-trump-numerous-times-first\/\">dishonest<\/a> dead weight that was Chris Wallace. With an honest, interesting, and intelligent host, <em>Fox News Sunday<\/em> has all kinds of potential to grow. Of course, I won\u2019t watch, but you know what I mean.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I am going to enjoy watching, though, is Wallace\u2019s fall from a high-profile Sunday morning network show to being buried alive at something called CNN+. Oh, my, I\u2019m going to lol all over that.<strong><em>&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Follow John Nolte on Twitter <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NolteNC\"><strong><em>@NolteNC<\/em><\/strong><\/a><strong>. <em>Follow his Facebook Page <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/JohnNolteNC\/?skip_nax_wizard=true\"><strong><em>here<\/em><\/strong><\/a><strong><em>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fox News must be thrilled to finally be rid of Chris Wallace, the only recognizable name at Fox regularly murdered by the competition.
