Greg Gutfeld Settles Score With Sarah Silverman After He Beat Her In Ratings: “I would love to give Sarah Silverman pointers but the adorable lass blocked me ages ago”
Fox News star Greg Gutfeld is dominating the cable ratings. He stars in two top shows and is redefining late-night television. Gutfeld has been ignored and ‘blocked’ by Hollywood getting little to no credit for what he is doing.
But they can’t ignore him anymore. Not with his ratings which continue to go up. Gutfeld took to social media to take a well-deserved victory lap and to settle an old score with comedian Sarah Silverman.
He shared the ratings for his “Gutfeld!” program from February 14th to 17th and compared it to the same timeframe when Silverman hosted The Daily Show. Gutfeld averaged 2.1 million viewers, while The Daily Show flopped drawing an average of only 370,000 viewers during the same period.
He also posted the numbers for the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demo.

According to Mediaite:
Fox News’s late-night comedy show, Gutfeld!, brought in 2.2 million total viewers on Tuesday night, beating its lead-in, The Ingraham Angle. Roseanne Barr joined Gutfeld! as a guest.
Gutfeld! was the 6th highest-rated show overall on cable news in total viewers and the 3rd highest-rated in the key 25-54 age demographic — behind Tucker Carlson and The Five — which was co-hosted by Greg Gutfeld.
In the 11 p.m. hour, Gutfled! crushed its cable news competition as CNN brought in only 371,000 total viewers and MSNBC scored 972,000.
