Al Jazeera America Sees 30% Ratings Increase As Gaza Conflict Continues

3 million viewers, 1.4 million at prime time

Al Jazeera America has seen a major boost in its ratings over the last two weeks, with the network’s coverage of the Gaza conflict drawing some 3 million unique viewers in the first two weeks, 1.4 million of them in prime time, according to the Baltimore Sun. The hike represents a 30 percent increase in the network’s overall audience and a 40 percent increase in its prime-time audience.

It’s a major triumph for the year-old network, which has struggled to gain traction with American audiences since its much-ballyhooed debut last August.
