According to Nielsen Media Research, Newsmax&#8217;s &#8220;Eric Bolling The Balance&#8221; recorded 467,000 viewers in the 8 p.m. ET hour, while only 447,000 watched CNN&#8217;s &#8220;Anderson Cooper 360.&#8221; In the 9 p.m. ET hour, &#8220;The Right Squad&#8221; on Newsmax garnered 32,000 more viewers than CNN&#8217;s &#8220;Whole Story.&#8221; And in the 10 p.m. ET slot, &#8220;Greg Kelly Reports&#8221; scored 278,000 viewers while &#8220;Who&#8217;s Talking to Chris Wallace?&#8221; only managed to notch 263,000.<\/p>\n<h3>Conservative Network&#8217;s Ratings on the Rise<\/h3>\n<p>Newsmax&#8217;s CEO Christopher Ruddy said in a statement, &#8220;Newsmax has witnessed a consistent, positive trend for weeks and we are looking forward to enormous interest in the network as we draw closer to the GOP primaries and &#8217;24 election.&#8221; According to a recently published Newsmax article, the conservative network&#8217;s ratings have increased since Fox News&#8217; firing of Tucker Carlson several weeks ago. Late last month, Fox released a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/florida-arrests-two-residents-for-illegally-voting-in-previous-elections\/\" title=\"Florida Arrests Two Residents For Illegally Voting In Previous Elections\">press release revealing<\/a> the network and Carlson had &#8220;agreed to part ways,&#8221; but didn&#8217;t provide a specific reason as to why the host was leaving.<\/p>\n<h3>Tucker Carlson&#8217;s Departure from Fox News<\/h3>\n<p>Through the past several years, Carlson arguably provided the most insightful analysis of current events among New York and D.C. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-press-sec-used-insult-condemned-by-dem-officials-as-homophobic\/\" title=\"Biden Press Sec Used Insult Condemned by Dem Officials as \u2018Homophobic\u2019\">media pundits<\/a>. Since departing Fox News, Carlson has announced he will start airing his show on Twitter. &#8220;There aren&#8217;t many platforms left that allow free speech,&#8221; Carlson said in a video he tweeted. &#8220;The last big one remaining in the world, the only one, is Twitter, where we are now.&#8221; As of Tuesday, the video had garnered more than 27 million views.<\/p>\n<h3>About the Author<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Shawn Fleetwood is a Staff Writer for The Federalist and a graduate of the University of Mary Washington.<\/li>\n<li>He also serves as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/exclusive-american-freedom-convoy-set-to-launch-on-march-1\/\" title=\"Exclusive: \u2018American Freedom Convoy\u2019 Set To Launch On March 1\">state content writer<\/a> for Convention of States Action and his work has been featured in numerous outlets, including RealClearPolitics, RealClearHealth, and Conservative Review.<\/li>\n<li>Follow him on Twitter @ShawnFleetwood<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newsmax beat CNN in prime-time ratings on Friday, becoming the third-highest-rated cable news channel in the US.
