Nolte: Dying Oscar Telecast Bombs with 4th Lowest Ratings in History

When I read this story I learned that the Hollywood Hamas chapter held a TV show.  The haters of Hollywood have been outed.  That is why viewers for the Oscars are down.  Plus, the criteria for an award is no longer based on quality—but DEI.  This is now a racist, misogynist operation.

“But facts are facts, and a mere ten years ago, in 2014, the Oscar telecast drew 43.7 million viewers. Hell, five years ago, in 2019, 30 million tuned in.

But by all means, celebrate that 19.5 million.

Also of interest is the fact Oscar is losing younger viewers. And again, here’s how the entertainment media sycophants spin it:

The telecast of the 96th Academy Awards marked a four-year high in total viewers, including a 4% increase compared to the 18.8 million who tuned into the Sunday night telecast in 2023. Last year’s broadcast saw a 13% uptick in total viewership compared to the 16.7 million viewers the awards show nabbed in 2022. This year’s show also nabbed a 3.81 rating among adults 18-49.”

I refuse to finance haters and bigots.  What about you?

Nolte: Dying Oscar Telecast Bombs with 4th Lowest Ratings in History

JOHN NOLTE, Breitbart,  3/12/24    https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2024/03/12/nolte-dying-oscar-telecast-bombs-with-4th-lowest-ratings-in-history/

With only 19.5 million viewers, Sunday night’s Academy Awards bombed with the fourth-lowest viewership in Oscar history.

Naturally, the sycophants in the corporate media who need Hollywood’s ad dollars and refuse to admit America will never embrace their fascist Woke Revolution are spinning this failure with these howler headlines: “Oscars 2024 Hit 4-Year Viewership High With 19.5 Million” and “TV Ratings: Oscars Score Post-Pandemic Highs” and “‘Barbenheimer,’ and an Early Start, Boost Oscar Ratings to 4-Year High.”

But facts are facts, and a mere ten years ago, in 2014, the Oscar telecast drew 43.7 million viewers. Hell, five years ago, in 2019, 30 million tuned in.

But by all means, celebrate that 19.5 million.

Also of interest is the fact Oscar is losing younger viewers. And again, here’s how the entertainment media sycophants spin it:

The telecast of the 96th Academy Awards marked a four-year high in total viewers, including a 4% increase compared to the 18.8 million who tuned into the Sunday night telecast in 2023.

That last sentence kills me.

Read the paragraph again and ask yourself what’s missing. You will notice we get all the “good news” about how Sunday’s telecast improved in total viewers over the 2022 and 2023 telecasts. But-but-but where’s the 18-49 comparison to last year? Why is that left out? And why does that last sentence make that 3.81 rating sound like a triumph?

I’ll tell you why… It’s because you’re being lied to through omission. That all-important age demo in the 18-49 range that sets advertiser rates was down a full five percent from last year.

Regardless, here’s the real reason Sunday night’s Oscars should be considered a massive failure…

Sunday should have been a perfect ratings storm for the Academy Awards. First, the telecast started an hour earlier than in previous years. Second, and for the first time in 20 years, a movie normal people turned into a bonafide blockbuster—Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer—was the Best Picture frontrunner. That hasn’t happened since 2003’s Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

In addition to Oppenheimer, another blockbuster, Barbie, was advertised as a key part of the telecast, especially in the Best Song department.

  1. No one wants to watch these pampered hollywood elites blabbering their BS political garbage when all they are there to do is say Thank You.
    I don’t care if these political promoting awards shows all go away.
