Every Boomer I have ever known has had a TV with a news station on just running in the background of their lives at home.
You go into their home, the TV is always on. They aren't necessarily watching it but they have that shit rolling 24 hours a day.
As of 2021, roughly 56% of US citizens still have a Cable TV subscription. Those numbers continue to drop, but plenty of Boomers still have that TV on and running all damn day long.
CNN's actual viewership numbers are abysmal compared to FOX News and MSNBC.

Ouch, in a country of 350 million people, CNN can barely pull half a million people who give a shit about their broadcast.
I don't have cable so I don't know... who the fuck is willing to advertise to a national audience that small? You could spend less money and have more reach on a radio station in one city.
man my parents constantly have CNN on in the background and i have no idea how they havent gone completely crazy hearing whatever the pundits are talking about all day. Not to mention the same like, 3 ads over and over again
