Great shows.

Plus, Cartoon Network’s viewership isn’t all that high, so it would be great if those numbers went up.

They canceled "The People's Court"??? Who's the IDIOT that made that decision??? OMG! COME ON! STUPID STUPID STUPID...BAD DECISION!!!

Free the numbers

Why no network numbers? Why are you delaying the numbers? What is the problem? Are you going to do what you did once before because the numbers did not fit your agenda?

The person who made the comment below mine...MJ Luna...should understand the numbers posted on here are based on Nielson ratings...not USTVDB. Newsmax's numbers and those of Fox News...are accurate.

USTVDB falsely claims that Newsmax has an audience of 113,000 compared to Fox's audience of over 2.2 million. The problem with these ratings, USTVDB does not provide on how they obtained these figures? I am certain that every network keeps an accurate record of their ratings.

DirecTV indiscriminately drops Newsmax from its lineup based on its conservative viewpoints -- not based on ratings. However, DirecTV pays to keep 11 liberal networks on the air as it continues to silence conservative speech. In 2022, DirecTV drops One America News Network based on their conservative viewpoints as well. This is a violation of both conservative medias' First Amendment rights, and it must be challenge in the courts.

M.J,

The person making the false claim is you unless you have evidence to back up your claim.

Newswatch

Just so you are clear on the First Amendment:

The First Amendment applies only to state actors, there is a common misconception that it prohibits anyone from limiting free speech, including private, non-governmental entities. Moreover, the Supreme Court has determined that protection of speech is not absolute.

Clearly someone whose under the influence of their bullshit media choices. Act like everyone else is influenced by media then come on here and say exactly what your trash networks are pushing. Lol it would be comical if it wasn’t so pathetic.
