3 News Driven YouTube Channels that Have a Bigger Following than CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News
Before smart phones became so handy, news networks like CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News were where the masses turned to for news coverage. These few stations dominated the television screens of most homes in America. But now that the TV is no longer the main screen in town, neither are news networks.
It’s not that viewership has been terrible for news organizations. According to Nielsen data for Q2 2017, Fox News averaged 1,420,000 total day viewers, MSNBC averaged 886,000, and CNN averaged 788,000 total day viewers; numbers that have been fairly consistent over the past couple decades. But in today’s world, 1.2 million views means nothing when clips of a cat playing the piano are accumulating tens of millions. And when the average age of a networks prime time audience is 68 (like Fox News), it’s time to shake things up and attract the eye balls of a new generation.
There are news driven YouTube Pages that have millions of subscribers; millions of people who receive a notification whenever a video is posted; millions who are committed to staying loyal; millions of people who didn't accidentally leave the program on.
Below are three YouTube pages that have more subscribers than the CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News have viewers on an average night.
