Liberals are going to go crazy over the great news that Fox News host Harris Faulkner got.
Forbes said that her Fox News show, “The Faulkner Focus,” had more viewers this week than the left-leaning talk show “The View” for the first time.
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you FOX and Faulkner Focus viewers.” The Fox News host said on X, “A big thanks to Forbes for showing our 11 a.m. ET daytime team some love.”
It’s even more impressive when you think about how many people can watch “The View” because it’s on broadcast TV, but only cable subscribers can watch Faulkner’s show, and as more and more people “cut the cord,” the audience size is decreasing.
Heartfelt gratitude to the beloved viewers of FOX and @FaulknerFocus. And big thanks to @forbes for showing our 11am ET daytime team some love: Harris Faulkner Beats ‘The View’ As Fox News Sets Ratings Record. 🙏🥰 https://t.co/vaL1JTOGoC

“I could not grab this big win without my wonderful team,” Faulkner told Forbes. “It’s a testament to the hard work and passion we put into bringing Americans the latest news and analysis on what matters most to them. The Faulkner Focus is a place where audiences can tune in and know their questions about the day’s headlines will be answered with respect for all sides, and we are proud viewers continue to choose us at 11 a.m.”
Fox News also had its best month ever as its primetime shows averaged an audience of 2.8 million with an average of 353,000 viewers in the key demographic of adults 25-54 that is most coveted by advertisers.
“As we mark 23 years as America’s most-watched cable news network, I would like to thank our incredible team both on and off the camera for their dedication to delivering the best product in news,” Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott said. “Each year, we surpass new milestones, continue to innovate, and outperform the competition due to their tireless efforts and I could not be prouder.”
Other networks have not been having the same success.
In what senior executives are calling an attempt to modernize their business model, CNN and NBC are planning to lay off hundreds of staffers, though for the time being, the cuts will not extend to on-air talent.
