MSNBC's Biden interview loses out to comedy reruns in critical demo ratings
Story by Jeffrey Clark • 21h

Despite extensive advertising and securing President Biden's final television interview of his term, MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell's interview ratings lost out in a major demographic to comedy shows and reruns on other platforms.

O'Donnell's interview with Biden that took up the show's hour drew 1.2 million total viewers and just 97,000 in the critical 25-54 age demographic.
 
Repeats of "Seinfeld," "Family Guy", "Friends," "The Office," as well as an episode of "South Park" were some of the shows that won over MSNBC's interview with people between the ages of 25-54.

During the 10 p.m. ET hour, when O'Donnell's interview with Biden aired, Fox News Channel commanded a 68% share of total cable news viewers and 71% among viewers between the ages of 25-54, while MSNBC had 23% and 15%, respectively.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
