New evidence shows Newsmax is enjoying newfound popularity among the community of Donald Trump supporters, Republicans and conservatives — as some have turned away from their longtime media home at Fox News Channel.
A public opinion poll of Republican voters released Tuesday showed that in the new conservative media order that followed Trump’s losing the presidency, Fox has suffered some defections. Newsmax, based in Boca Raton, and another far-right upstarted, OANN, have gained.
“Among GOP voters nationally, Newsmax and OANN are hot on Fox News’ tail thanks to Fox defections and Trump supporters,” pollster Tony Fabrizio wrote in a Twitter post releasing the survey results.
