May was a bad one for the cable news channels.

All the cable news stations saw big declines in their viewership.

Fox News led the way, but their viewership was down 37% from last year. MSNBC finished second, its viewership dropped 22% from last year.

CNN was the only cable news station not to crack a million viewers and its viewership was down a whopping 45% over last year.

Yet, somehow, Jeff Zucker still has a job.
