Showtime and The Loudest Voice producer accuse Fox News of spreading misinformation about low ratings

Twitter

Fox News has been avoiding the Roger Ailes miniseries starring Russell Crowe, but conservative outlets described today's ratings news with words like "ratings flop," "bombs" and "tanks in the ratings." In response, Showtime chief spokesperson Johanna Fuentes tweeted: "I see a certain cable news network’s PR team is working overtime on our ratings. As always, we’ll sit here quietly knowing full well 80% of our audience watches on a delay. And since we’re not ad-supported, that's just fine by us. Show will be at a million by week’s end." The Loudest Voice producer Jason Blum retweeted her tweet, adding: "Fox News is breathlessly spreading word that no one is watching our #TheLoudestVoice show.   #FakeNews."
