- Jake Tapper’s move to the 9PM hour on CNN to cover the midterm elections was a ratings disappointment, regularly ranking third in the timeslot behind Fox’s Hannity and MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight.
- “As part of a special lineup, Jake agreed to anchor the 9 pm hour through the midterm elections,” a CNN spokesperson said.
- Despite a flashy premiere show featuring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and President Joe Biden, he debuted with just 854,000 viewers, a number that only continued to drop in the proceeding days.
