i have noticed that some fox affiliates are not carrying the network's coverage of the inaguration and instead running their regular programming

 

WRLH in Richmond is currently airing Steve Wilkos, so unless they break in to cover the swearing in, I assume they won't air it at all.

i find it quite surprising that fox is allowing their affiliates to skip a presidential inaguration broadcast

FOX had to toss a bone to some of the liberal affils to make up for that whole Ailes fiasco. They decided to let some of them cut-away because even FOX knows this is pretty boring TV by todays standards.

I saw it on the internet.

If the side-by-side photos are any indication, it appears nobody cared less. Only 250,000 people saw it all in person, compared to the 1.8 million who packed the National Mall for Obama's 2009 inauguration.

 

In the end, low attendance may translate to lower TV ratings for this "inauguration".

All of the DC stations ditched the network around 1:30-2pm to cover the protests & riots locally. WRC was the only terrestrial station who stayed local through the swearing in and speech from Pres. Trump, via their Cozi subchannel.

And in the end...

FNC won with 4.8 million viewers.

15.3 million viewers watched coverage on the Big 4 networks.

NBC lead across the board, starting with 5.8M total viewers.

A big number, but not "yuge".

And Trump accused the media of lower numbers at inauguration when he said that numbers were pretty high. Yeah right.

 

Thank god 2020 is just 3 years away.

Be careful what you say, otherwise we'll get another "delightful" Trump poem in this thread.
