The FOX tv typically had only 2-3 people watching it during the 2016 primaries. Everyone else centered around the CNN tv while they ate their lunch. Due to the unpopularity of FOX News, they eventually changed that set to re-runs of game shows from the 70's on GSN. That tv's viewership then increased to the point that only 2-3 people were left watching CNN.
