As the Sanders segment outdrew other cable outlets’ town halls, a new crop of Democratic hopefuls could be headed to Fox as well.
A ratings bonanza by Bernie Sanders with a Fox News town hall Monday night has apparently led more left-leaning 2020 presidential candidates wanting to pull a page from the old-schooler’s playbook.
Sanders, who calls himself a “Democratic Socialist,” drew more viewers on Fox News, which notoriously has a conservative base, than he did on other town hall-type events on CNN and MSNBC, according to The Daily Beast. According to the Daily Beast report, the Sanders town hall drew approximately 489,000 viewers between the ages of 25 and 54 on Monday night—roughly the same as CNN and MSNBC combined in the same time frame.
After the big night by Sanders, other Democratic hopefuls in 2020 have expressed an interest to perhaps appear on a Fox News town hall. South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg is in talks, according to The Daily Beast, as are Rep. Eric Swalwell, Rep. Tim Ryan and former San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, who governed one of the biggest cities in a notorious Republican state.
