Here's the story. 

 

 

Fox News’ first Republican primary debate got a terrible response from American television viewers, with the broadcast losing about half the audience Fox’s kickoff debate had during the 2016 election.

According to Nielsen, an estimated 12.8 million people watched Wednesday’s Republican debate.

But that’s a decline of almost 50% from the more than 24 million people who tuned in when Donald Trump appeared in his first presidential debate in August 2015, Nielsen reported.

The "Trump effect" was again witnessed in a January 2016 Republican primary debate hosted by Fox News that Trump also skipped — that debate also drew about 12.5 million people.

Trump said he boycotted the Republican debate this week for a number of reasons, including his large lead over other GOP rivals in the polls.

He has also expressed disappointment the Republican National Committee awarded the first two debates to Fox News, a network that has been openly hostile to him.

The chairman of Fox, billionaire Rupert Murdoch, claimed in a 2021 email he was seeking to make Trump a "non-person." The network has been openly supporting Ron DeSantis’ candidacy for the 2024 primary.

Meanwhile, Trump has been praising Newsmax and appearing regularly on the network.

At a July Turning Point conference, Trump mentioned Fox News, drawing widespread boos from the conservative audience. Trump then plugged Newsmax.

"Greg Kelly over at Newsmax— the Newsmax people have been really, really terrific," Trump said. "Newsmax has been terrific."

Social media platform X, formerly Twitter, reported that Tucker Carlson's interview with Trump had 236.7 million views — a count of how many times someone scrolled by Carlson's interview with Trump in their feeds.

Support from Fox’s audience has fallen since the network fired Carlson, its No. 1 prime-time host, last April.

The move appears to have led to a significant ratings decline for Fox, dropping 23% in total audience across total day, year-over-year, according to Nielsen.

Meanwhile, Newsmax has seen a 50% increase in total audience across the day during the same time period.

And a recent McLaughlin national poll of Republican voters asked if Carlson’s departure made it less likely or more likely they would "trust Fox News."

Only 8% responded they were more likely to trust Fox and a sizable 44% said they were less likely to trust Fox after Tucker’s firing.

No, Tucker Carlson's Trump interview doesn't have 230 million video views on X

Here's how many times it has actually been viewed.

 

On Wednesday night, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson interviewed former president Donald Trump on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. Now, Trump and his supporters are claiming that Carlson's video has received hundreds of millions of views on Elon Musk's social media site. That's not the case.

"The Tucker Carlson Interview with me was a BLOCKBUSTER. Could hit 200,000,000 Views, and more!" Donald Trump posted on his social networking platform, Truth Social, on Thursday morning.

Trump later claimed that, at 230 million views, the Carlson video was now: "The Biggest Video on Social Media, EVER, more than double the Super Bowl!" (For context, the 2023 Super Bowl was watched by more than 115 million viewers.)

On Carlson's interview post on X, the views metric displayed 236 million views, as of the time of publishing, since it went live 21 hours ago.

However, the metric on X is not how many views Carlson's video actually received.

Mashable can report that, as of the publication of this article on Thursday evening, Carlson's Trump interview has received 14.8 million video views on X. 

On X, it's not entirely clear to most users what the views metric refers to — many people believe, falsely, that the video of Carlson's Trump interview received 220 million views more than it actually received.

Why the discrepancy?

The views metric currently shown on X, displayed simply as "views," are tweet views. 

This number shows how many impressions a tweet receives. An impression is counted when a user actively goes to the tweet page or when a tweet appears in a user's timeline after being retweeted by another user. Views are also counted whenever a tweet shows up on a user's timeline. As such, a single user can be counted multiple times in the view count.

On the other hand, video views, which are no longer publicly displayed on X, count the number of times a piece of media content is played on the platform —although there are a few addendums to this metric. A video view on X is counted if the media plays for two or more seconds. And, if a user attempts to scroll past a video, but more than 50 percent of the player is still visible on the screen for that time frame, a video view is still counted. Autoplays are counted as well. 

To break down what this means for Tucker Carlson's Trump interview: The video itself was actually played only 14.8 million times, for at least two seconds of the more than 46-minute interview — or just over six percent of the total 236 million times someone saw the post on X.

As Mashable previously reported, under Musk, Twitter began removing the public video view count in May. The move came months after Musk added a "views" count metric to users' tweets. For a time, tweets displayed both metrics, which led to confusion about how many views a video actually received. Users often used the higher, albeit inaccurate, tweet view number to make their content seem more popular. Twitter then decided to quietly remove the smaller, albeit more accurate, number from public display. The company never announced the removal of the metric or gave an official reason as to why it was removed.

However, some older Android versions of the Twitter app continue to display the public video view metrics on X. Mashable has access to such a version of the app and was able to pull this data from it.

Not what the article says. If you retweet like say to a big group it counts as watched. You can set up bots to retweet to 1000s

If you just logged on it counts as watched. All different kinds of ways to get to a false number. Clicks sell. That’s why all social platforms have bots all over them…….to pump #s
