Obama interview fails to deliver ratings for CNN morning show

by Jeff Poor

Despite strong promotional efforts, CNN failed to get much of a bump in ratings Friday during a much-publicized interview with President Barack Obama conducted by Chris Cuomo.

According to data released by Nielsen, "New Day" average 280,000 in total viewers and under 100,000 (91,000) in the 25-54 demo. It finished in the overall ratings contest in third place behind Fox News Channel's "Fox & Friends" and MSNBC's "Morning Joe," and was even beaten by HLN, CNN's sister network, in the coveted 25-54 demo with 103,000 viewers.

MSNBC Morning Joe 312 80 176

"New Day" also showed a decline on Friday for its month-to-date and debut-to-date for the interview, down 19 percent and 25 percent respectively.
