Bari Weiss and Erika Kirk CBS Town Hall Fails to Attract Viewers

CBS News’ recent town hall featuring Erika Kirk, moderated by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, garnered significantly low viewership, drawing only 1.548 million total viewers, a 27% decrease compared to standard programming in the same time slot year-to-date.
