News nation is a breath of fresh air. Stay the course as the more people become exposed the higher will be the viewership.

Refreshing new alternative. A conservative, I enjoy Fox News during daytime programing but do not watch their agenda driven prime time. Frequently frustrated by Republican talking heads, I often turn to MSNBC or CNN until their drivel drives me back. NewsNation offers a welcome alternative.

Really great programming. People need to come out of their comfort zones and dump CNN and FOX

You would think with their ratings consistently going down that they would get smart and go back to regular programming. They stink at news and should never have tried to make this move. Wake up whoever is supposedly in charge even your own reporters are bailing on you

This is a product for which there is no audience. There are enough news sources. They want to preach "unbiased" as a former Fox News executive joins the team is so laughable, many of the news directors and programmers who launched NewsNation have left. Shepard Smith, in one hour on CNBC does a better job than NN does in 3.
Banfield's first week, there were an average of 17,000 viewers in her hour. That's not just awful, that's miserable. WGN America used to average 300,000 K per with reruns. That is not great, but that did not burn through hundreds of thousands of dollars as this failed format is doing.
Nexstar has to dump this soon. It was a ambitious project, but it's a failure.
There was a mix of new shows (from Canada, Europe) along with network reruns; Blue Bloods and Jag reruns still air on non news hours. WGN America was a legit service. Bring it back, please. News is everywhere, NN was a mistake.

  News Nation is a local newscast that thinks it's national, until that mindset goes away this whole thing is a wast of money. I'm honestly surprised it's still going. I believe you get more news from other sources, ' The News with Shepard Smith ' on CNBC is a great example of a national newscast that gives you a lot of information fast and with out the opinion.
  I'll stick with CNBC or FNC.

WGN America should concentrate only their local area and not nation wide. It’s news program is not geared timeframe wise and national network news is already over and we have moved on from the evening news and on to other things. Besides there are people like me who are tired of corporate wars because of someone’s greed especially during a pandemic. Bad timing! I am not going to change my viewing habits as far as news is concerned since I have followed the the big three since the late 1950’s.
