Well, Li’l Joey Concha, who had a media radio show canceled earlier this year, is caught perpetuating an outright lie about RNC viewership.
Joey’s stat comes from the C-SPAN live feed, which recorded slightly more than 400,000 viewers for the RNC Night 1 programming, versus the opening night of the DNC.
Unfortunately for Li’l Joey, network viewership for the republican propaganda stream was 14% lower than the Democrat’s first night. And DNC viewership was up by 10% over all platforms on night one, with more than 28 million people watching across all devices.
Joey Concha predicted DNC viewership would drop 60% on the first night. In fact, RNC network ratings were the ones that fell by 50% on the first night.
