The NewsNation special “We Are Not Alone: The Historic Hearing” drew some 106,000 total viewers, eclipsing the 65,000 who tuned into CNN’s docu-series “See It Loud: The History of Black Television” at 9 p.m., the Nielsen data showed.

NewsNation also beat out CNN in the 25-54 demographic coveted by advertisers, attracting 39,000 viewers to CNN’s 32,000, according to Nielsen.

    So what? Is this post just to shit on CNN?

    This is tinged with right wing logic. The two programs don’t have a lot of overlap in audience, so the numbers don’t matter. This wasn’t a choice people made between alien and black people.

    This is more of a political post, meant to trash CNN, who nobody gives a shit about but Republicans. What does this have to do with UFO’S?

      not a cnn hit peace because they mention this… maybe you didnt RTFA.

      The five-episode series has not been a total bust for CNN. The first three episodes aired last month averaged 88,000 viewers in the 25-54 demo — ranking No. 1 ahead of rivals MSNBC, Fox News Channel and NewsNation.

      the way I interpret it may be worse and more offensive…

      little green men > black television history

      UFOs are the primary government distraction right now. naturally it will pull more audience
