Trump vs Late-Night Hosts: Ratings & Rivalry

0:00On March 19th, here's the latest in entertainment and celebrity news. President Donald Trump took another swing at late-night TV host, calling out their low ratings and huge salaries in a recent social media post. Jimmy Kimmel hid back during his monologue with a simple thank you, on behalf of his fellow hosts, brushing off the attack with humor. This latest round kicked off amid Trump's broader complaints about network coverage of the conflict between Israel and Iran. He accused broadcasters of spreading lies and suggested regulators look into their licenses, lumping in comedians as part of the problem. Experts like Body Language Analyst Lily and Glass point to the show's increasingly angry tone as a turn-off for viewers. She argues the constant political bashing, no matter the target, leads to audience fatigue and explains why people are tuning out. Recent ratings paint a brighter picture, though. Stephen Colbert's show averaged 2.43 million viewers last week of 1% overall and 5% among adults, 18-2.
