Monday, Dec 16, 2024 9:11 am ET
NewsNation, Nexstar Media Group's national news and entertainment cable network, has announced a multi-year contract renewal with primetime anchor Chris Cuomo. This agreement comes as NewsNation continues to expand its programming, reaching 75 million U.S. television households. Cuomo, who joined NewsNation in 2022, has been instrumental in the network's growth, with his show "Cuomo" averaging 1.2 million total viewers and 250,000 in the key 25-54 demographic.
Since his debut in July 2022, ratings for Cuomo's primetime show have doubled, increasing by 54% in total viewers and 28% among adults 25-54. This growth has been a key factor in NewsNation's expansion, with the network adding 12 hours of live news programming weekly by early June 2022, bringing its weekly original programming to 61 hours. Additionally, NewsNation has expanded to 24 hours, Monday through Friday, with the launch of NewsNation Now, a new live four-hour weekday programming block.
Cuomo's strong performance and the network's growth trajectory indicate that his addition has been a key factor in NewsNation's expansion and success. His extensive experience and expertise in journalism, coupled with his ability to deliver engaging and informative content, have made him a valuable asset to the network. Cuomo's primetime show has consistently performed well in the ratings, attracting a significant audience share and contributing to the network's overall viewership.
The multi-year contract renewal between NewsNation and Chris Cuomo reflects the network's commitment to maintaining its high-quality journalism and expanding its reach. As NewsNation continues to grow and expand its programming, the partnership with Cuomo is likely to benefit the network's long-term success and solidify its position in the competitive cable news landscape.
