About 4 million people watched tucker Carlson. There are about 150 million voters in the country

In 2008, Barack Obama won about 70 million votes in the presidential election, the most ever at the time. Joe Biden, won 81,284,000 votes in the 2020 election.

The illustrious media can stick Carlson’s 4 million viewers where the sun don’t shine along with their hyperbole

In TV math, 4 million households means roughly 10 million viewers.

I can't imagine a household that would sit around together to watch that crap.

Not that I believe they're all fans of Tucker Carlson or anyone else.
It's just that they don't get a lot of choice what channels they can watch.

There are many, many more people exposed to FN than just those counted in the official ratings.

There's also social media, where Tucker would have been exposed to roughly a zillion more.
