Lowest ratings in 15 years. Like the overwhelming majority of Americans, we avoided it.
Television viewership for President Obama’s State of the Union address fell to a 15-year low, according to numbers from Nielsen.
The hour and fiftenn minute-long speech drew an average of 31.7 million viewers on broadcast and cable networks Tuesday, the measurement firm said.
The combined figure is down about 5% from last year’s State of the Union address, which clocked in at 33.3 million.
This year’s count, which does not include people who streamed the event online, was the lowest since President Clinton’s final State of the Union in 2000. That speech pulled in just under 31.5 million viewers.
Nielsen’s combined tally included networks ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, Al Jazeera America, Azteca, CNN, Fox Business Network, Fox News Channel, Galavision, MSNBC, MundoFox and Univision.
But just like in the election, where the people who didn’t vote were obviously with him, the people were all watching the livestream, that explains the plummeting numbers!
