Channel 14's 'The Patriots' Hits New Low in Prime-Time Ratings

Channel 14 suffered a significant blow as its flagship current affairs program, 'The Patriots,' recorded a new low in viewership, continuing a long-term decline. Once intended to rival major channels, the show fell to fourth place in prime-time ratings with only 6.7% viewership. It was outperformed by Keshet 12's 'Hatunami' leading with 13.2%, Reshet 13's 'The Voice' at 10.1%, and even Kan 11's reality show 'Come Eat With Me' at 7.1%. In the news segment, Channel 12's news broadcast maintained a strong lead with 10.1% viewership. Channel 14's news ranked second with 5.1%, narrowly ahead of Channel 13's 4.5%. Lower in the ratings were Kan 11's news at 3.7% and i24NEWS at 1.3%. This data highlights Channel 14's ongoing struggle to regain its former audience share in both entertainment and news programming.
