CNN, MSNBC Fear Network Ratings Will Crater Without President Trump in Office
Where do they go from here?

As CNN and MSNBC prepare for a political era without Donald Trump as president, employees of the networks are concerned about the future and tenability of their business model. Both channels attained viewership ratings they had never reached before during Trump’s presidency, with liberals tuning into the cable news channels in pursuit of a predictable stream of content that reinforced their own biases and preexisting beliefs about Donald Trump and conservatives.
The New York Times cites a dozen on-air personalities of the corporate news networks, all of whom believe that their channels will suffer a dip in ratings in 2021 without President Trump.
Longtime CNN executive Jeff Zucker is also considering exiting the network, citing management conflicts with figures associated with CNN’s parent company, Warner Media.

In private network meetings hashing out a plan for the network without Trump, one MSNBC on-air personality suggested the network’s viewers would no longer care or need the channel. “What happens when you don’t need us?” CNN became the highest rated cable news channel for the month of November in the first time in its history, eclipsing Fox News through a stroke of luck only when Fox alienated a large portion of its viewer base by prematurely calling states like Arizona and the election for Joe Biden.
Liberal mainstream media channels have faced serious threats to their business model before, with CNN and MSNBC struggling to stay afloat and avoid layoffs during Barack Obama’s second term. In spite of constant editorializing against President Trump, the corporate news outlets are loathe to criticize Joe Biden and Democrats, as indicated by their recent refusal to cover stories surrounding Hunter Biden’s laptop and the evidence of Biden family corruption it contained.
It ranges from possible to likely that the average CNN or MSNBC segment in 2022 is still fixated upon personal grievances against President Trump, who may already be running in the 2024 election at that point. Coverage of Biden administration corruption, poor governance, and Mr. Biden’s enduring pattern of severe cognitive decline will largely be left to alternative media organizations.

FAKE NEWS DEBUNKED: ‘Zip Tie Guy’ at Capitol Protest Merely Picked up the Restraints From a Table
It was a mostly-peaceful protest by ANTIFA/BLM standards.

One insidious piece of fake news that circulated widely after the Jan. 6 siege on the U.S. Capitol is that there was a protester with zip ties who was among the individuals who dared to enter the holy grounds on that fateful day.
This was used by dishonest left-wing pundits and lying government officials to claim that the Trump supporters were engaged in an insurrection and a coup on Jan. 6.
Larry Brock, the retired Air Force officer who stormed the Senate chamber with zip ties, intended to "take hostages," a prosecutor said.

However, it has since come out that there was not any individual who brought zip ties to the U.S. Capitol protest to kidnap federal officials.
After deceiving the public for weeks, prosecutors were forced to admit in court that a man seen with the alleged zip ties had actually taken plastic handcuffs from police. While this may be a crime, it shows that there was no harmful intent from the protesters, most of whom demonstrated peacefully in and around the U.S. Capitol.
Eric Munchel, a U.S. Capitol protester who has been maligned falsely as the ‘Zip Tie Guy,’ reportedly grabbed the handcuffs off from a table. The new court filing explains what occurred.
“At one point, MUNCHEL spots plastic handcuffs on a table inside a hallway in the Capitol. MUNCHEL exclaims, ‘zipties. I need to get me some of them motherf—ers,” and grabs several white plastic handcuffs from on top of a cabinet,” the filing states, adding: “As MUNCHEL and [his mother, Lisa Eisenhart,] are attempting to leave, Eisenhart says words to the effect of, ‘Don’t carry the zip ties, just get ’em out of their hand.'”
It appears that Munchel and his mother, Lisa Eisenhart, were simply trying to prevent the plastic handcuffs from being used to detain patriots at the scene. As the case is heard in court, more details about the case will be heard, and the full truth can be determined.
Big League Politics has attempted to debunk a lot of the spin, which is coming from liberals and conservatives alike, surrounding the Jan. 6 Capitol siege:
Less than a week after the infamous U.S. Capitol siege took place, many conservative talking heads – perhaps in an attempt to protect President Donald Trump from the nuclear fall-out – are claiming that ANTIFA terrorists were responsible for the mayhem that ultimately resulted in five people dead…
However, investigative work by Big League Politics shows that there is no real evidence showing that this event was promulgated or set up by ANTIFA and the political establishment.
In fact, there is more evidence showing that this was a spontaneous uprising of angry patriots who have been pushed past the breaking point.
As a reporter who was embedded in the thick of the chaotic scene, I personally witnessed protesters singing “God Bless America” and “I’m Proud to be an American” while they were being tear gassed and flash banged by authorities.
Protesters were risking life and limb to climb up scaffolding to wave the American flag and boldly display their patriotism. Chants included “USA! USA!” and “We the People,” with constitutional iconography being found everywhere…
Does this seem like the optics of an ANTIFA rally, or a pro-American uprising? Big Tech entities are scrambling to censor footage of the rally so that they can control the narrative about what actually took place, so people cannot understand this was a pro-freedom revival in the vein of the Founding Fathers.
Additionally, much of the “evidence” showing that prominent protesters seen inside the Capitol were ANTIFA has already been debunked.
While the Capitol siege may have been seen as destructive and drastic, what is really destructive and drastic is the behavior committed by Congress selling ordinary Americans out for decades. The Capitol demonstrators ought to be punished as harshly as the ANTIFA thugs who attacked Trump’s inauguration in 2017 for their mostly peaceful protest.
