Just in ... meh:
Just in: CNN's town hall with Donald Trump averaged 3.1 million total viewers. The event outrated Fox and MSNBC, as expected, but these are not 2015/16 level numbers for Trump — not even close.— Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) May 11, 2023

That being said, the kids are not alright
In the key 25- to 54-year-old demo, the town hall averaged 703,000, about five times higher than CNN's typical performance at 8pm.

I have no idea why they break TV demos the way they do ... I couldn't possibly have less to do with 25-year-olds' viewing habits, and vice versa.

By the way, can you imagine CNN hosting a town hall with Bernie and the audience being filled with socialists who booed Dems and Republicans alike, cheered Bernie when he attacked the media, and applauded every reference to Medicare for All and justice for the Palestinians? https://t.co/S5RuI5I41u— Mehdi Hasan (@mehdirhasan) May 11, 2023

The timing of this 'town hall' - months before anything campaign-related has really begun - makes me think this is just a hasty and cynical attempt by CNN to woo disgruntled FOX viewers over to their new rightist programming... for their ilk, it's like getting Taylor Swift to play a tune on your late night show

E. Jean Carroll is weighing whether to file a new defamation lawsuit against former President Donald J. Trump in the wake of his diatribe against her during a CNN town hall Wednesday night, she said in an interview. https://t.co/pKjbIAPLM1— Josh Dawsey (@jdawsey1) May 11, 2023

I'm hoping she does. Trump probably thinks that once he's been found guilty he's entitled to "get his money's worth", in the manner of an ejected baseball manager who spews profanity-laced invectives back at the ump on his way to the clubhouse.

I don't know about the effect on right wing media, but the much-anticipated Durham Report already seems to be fading down the headlines, a day after its release
there were no bombshells, and there was no 'total exoneration' - apparently it stated that Trump should have been investigated, but agents should've vetted their sources better - and that's about it

My favorite current right-wing conspiracy theory is about the Biden whistleblowers. Supposedly there is a whistleblower, but now that mysterious whistleblower, who has not been named or identified, has vanished, possibly because the deep state covered it up, possibly because he's been murdered, along with a whole bunch of other whistleblowers. Because if they weren't disappeared, one way or the other, then why have they not appeared? Logic.
― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 16 May 2023 19:26 (eleven months ago) link
Last I saw they have the whistleblower still, and he's got really good stuff, but his main witness is the one who went missing.

“A conflict inside former President Donald J. Trump’s legal team erupted into public view on Saturday as one of his former lawyers went on television to attack one of his current lawyers, who has been the focus of ire from others on the team.”

Haha... She's going for it:
The author and columnist E Jean Carroll will go back to court to demand “very substantial” additional damages from Donald Trump for the disparaging remarks he made about her during a televised CNN town hall just a day after he was found liable in a civil case for sexually assaulting her.
An amended lawsuit seeking an additional $10m in compensatory damages – and more in punitive damages – was filed in Manhattan on Monday by lawyers for Carroll...
