Rick Porter reports:
President Donald Trump’s 107-minute speech (the longest on record) drew 32.64 million viewers across 15 broadcast and cable outlets. That’s down 11 percent from the 36.63 million people who tuned into Trump’s address to Congress last year, also on 15 networks (the 2025 address was not technically a State of the Union as it came at the start of a new administration). Per usual, the big four broadcast networks and three largest cable news channels — ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News, the Fox broadcast network, MS Now and NBC — accounted for a large majority of the audience. Together they had 27.8 million viewers, based on preliminary numbers, while the remaining eight outlets (EstrellaTV, Telemundo, Univision, PBS, CNNe, Fox Business, Newsmax and NewsNation) had the rest.
