Fox News is facing a significant ratings drop, with viewership plunging by 27% in October, marking its largest pre-election month decline in a decade. This slump has raised alarms among Republicans as it may indicate voter unease ahead of the upcoming midterms. Despite retaining its position as the top-rated cable news network, Fox News has been criticized for its coverage and perceived declining interest in Trump-related content. Meanwhile, competitors like CNN and MS NOW are witnessing audience growth during this critical period.
