President Trump's town hall on Fox News was the most-watched town hall in cable news history.

The Thursday evening event moderated by Special Report host Bret Baier and The Story's Martha MacCallum garnered 4.2 million viewers and 744,000 in the key 25-54 age demographic, according to Nielsen Media Research. It took place at the Scranton Cultural Center in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

The president's town hall had more than 1.5 million more viewers than any of the Democratic primary candidates' town halls on Fox News, CNN, or MSNBC.

The most-watched town hall for any of the 2020 Democrats also took place on Fox News: The event with Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, which took place in April 2019, had nearly 2.6 million viewers.

“We are pleased to host incumbent President Donald Trump for his first town hall of the 2020 election cycle," Jay Wallace, president and executive editor of Fox News Media, said in a press release when the event was first announced. "As Americans continue deliberating their choice for president, FOX News Channel is proud to provide a platform for candidates across the political spectrum to inform the public on their stances.”
