Fox News Channel (FNC) dominated cable news ratings in August 2024, securing its position as the most-watched network in total day and prime-time viewership. FNC averaged 1.4 million total day viewers and 2.3 million in prime-time, with significant increases from the previous year, particularly in the coveted 25-54 demographic. During the Democratic National Convention, Fox News averaged 4.5 million viewers in prime-time, outperforming competitors CNN and MSNBC. The Five emerged as the top cable news program, averaging 3.3 million viewers, while Jesse Watters Primetime followed closely with 3 million. Despite FNC's strong performance, the USA Network led in the 25-54 demo, primarily due to Olympics coverage. The overall viewership figures indicate a resurgence for cable news as the 2024 election approaches, though they still lag behind the ratings during the 2020 election cycle.
