The new season of the reality cooking competition "The Winning Kitchen VIP," co-hosted by Ruthie Broudou and Haim Cohen, launched with a significant lead in viewership ratings. The show, aired on Channel 12, secured the top spot, outperforming other programs.

In the competitive landscape, Yinon Magal's political talk show "The Patriots," which airs on Channel 14, came in second place. Even established news broadcasts faced challenges, with Yunit Levi's news edition also maintaining a strong position but falling behind the reality show's premiere.

While "The Winning Kitchen VIP" celebrated a successful opening, the ratings indicate a clear message to competing channels, particularly Channel 14 and its host Magal. The article implies that the popularity of entertainment programming, especially the cooking show, has a substantial impact on audience choices, even over news and political commentary.

Further details on the ratings indicate that Keren Marziano's news broadcast also participated in the viewership competition. The article does not specify the exact ratings numbers but emphasizes the clear hierarchy established by the premiere episode.
