LEMON FADE: Disastrous Don Leads CNN Morning Show to Lowest Ratings in a Decade

posted by Hannity Staff - 2.13.23

Turns out, Americans don’t like to start their day with Lemon. The struggling host has driven CNN’s morning show into the ground, sending the disastrous show to its worst ratings of the last ten years.

From The Wrap:

Since its Nov. 1, 2022 launch, “CNN This Morning” — hosted by Don Lemon, Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins — has drawn in the lowest viewership among adults 25-54, the key demographic for cable news, and the second-lowest total viewership among each iteration of the network’s morning programming since “New Day” was launched in June 2013, according to Nielsen data.

According to Outkick, “Lemon has sunk total viewership of 16.2% compared to the most recent iteration of “New Day. In the demo, viewership has decreased by 21% with the show’s first three months on-air.

“CNN This Morning” draws fewer than 400,000 viewers a day.

Last week, reports were circulating that Lemon screamed at morning co-host Kaitlan Collins, 30, who ran off the set in tears in December.
