Night 3 of the Republican National Convention delivered the smallest viewership tally to date, dropping 13% from the previous night.
Wednesday night’s proceedings drew around 15.8 million total viewers across all the broadcast and cable news networks, roughly a 2 million viewer dip on Tuesday night. For comparison, the third night of the Democratic National Convention was watched by 22.8 million viewers.
Looking at the networks individually, Fox News dipped around 11% from the night before, but still easily led the way with 7.1 million viewers. That’s pretty much the same audience the network drew for night 1.
All the other networks were closely bunched together, as NBC came second once again with just under 2 million total viewers (down from 2.5 million the night before). ABC came third with 1.9 million, followed by CBS with 1.8 million. CBS was in fact the only network to gain viewers from night 2. CNN’s coverage drew 1.5 million viewers, and MSNBC came last with just under 1.5 million.
