The debate over whether NBC host Megyn Kelly should have given air time to far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones garnered a lot more attention then her interview with him, one analysis found.
With just 3.5 million viewers, “Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly” came in last place among the four major networks during the 7 p.m. time slot, according to Nielsen Media Research. Neilsen hasn’t released details of its insights, but several media outlets obtained early copies.
Kelly’s new show, which premiered this month, was beat out by an ABC rerun of “America’s Funniest Home Videos” with 3.7 million viewers, a CBS rerun of “60 Minutes” with 5.3 million viewers, and Fox’s U.S. Golf Open Championship coverage with 6.1 million viewers.
In the crucial 18-49 age demographic, Kelly’s interview tied with CBS for a 0.5 rating, but lost to ABC’s 0.7 and Fox’s 1.4.
