Fox News announced its decision to part ways with Tucker Carlson, followed shortly by news of Don Lemon’s departure from CNN. Close to one-third of Fox News viewers claim they’re now at least ‘somewhat less likely’ to watch the network. CNN and MSNBC viewers slightly over-index for saying they’re at least ‘somewhat more likely’ to watch Fox in his absence, but the vast majority are unchanged. As for Lemon, his exit is inspiring a slightly less fervent negative response among the Gen Pop and CNN viewers. A greater percentage of U.S. adults (16%) claim they’re ‘more likely’ to watch CNN after Lemon’s exit than ‘less likely’ (13%).
