Hate-Speech Grammy Awards Show Loses Viewers…Again
While this year’s Grammy winners used their acceptance speeches to voice their radical political views, viewers voiced their disinterest by tuning out and turning off the CBS broadcast of the 2026 awards ceremony.
Sunday’s live broadcast cast featuring a constant stream of hateful vulgarity protesting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) enforcement of federal immigration laws drew 14.4 million viewers, a million fewer than the year before (15.4 million) and 2.68 million less than in 2024, according to Nielsen.
This year’s 6.4% drop in viewers continues a long-term decline in the number of people watching the leftist politics-platform purported music “awards” show, following a COVID-era bump. It’s more than 25 million lower than 2012’s 39.91 million mark - and over 37 million less than the show’s all-time high of 51.67 million in 1984.
“Last night's ceremony was one of the worst Grammy broadcasts in recent memory,” NewsBusters reports in its analysis of the supposed music awards program – noting that even the show’s host, not just the award-winners, resorted to hateful, radical-leftist politicking:
“Both the host and winners made zero attempt to relate to viewers outside a left-wing bubble or to focus exclusively on the music. It was a long night made longer by left-wing politics.”
Indeed, as NewsBusters explains, Noah:
Began the evening by mocking singer Nicki Minaj for her public support of President Donald Trump.
Accused Trump of being on Epstein Island with Bill Clinton, a false accusation for which Trump is now threatening to sue Noah.
Joked that he might need to leave the continental United States.
The program also showcased “a Lady Gaga performance with satanic vibes, quickly reminding viewers that the music industry is still a degenerate place,” NewsBusters reports.
Next year, the Grammy Awards broadcast moves from CBS to Disney, which has become infamous for promoting radical leftist ideology, especially to impressionable pre-school children.
