Fox News Sunday Gets a Ratings Bump After Bernie Sanders Interview

His first as a presidential candidate.

If booking as many Trump interviews as possible is one ratings strategy, here is another: booking an interview with a candidate who rarely appears on your show.

It was a successful venture for Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace. Last Sunday’s episode, in which Bernie Sanders appeared as a guest for the first time since announcing his presidential run, was the program’s highest-rated since November 2015, reaching 1,879,000 total viewers and 596,000 in the A25-54 demo.
