Mentana is booming (overtaking Giordano, but Fuori dal Coro is soaring): now Chiocci's Tg1 is in the crosshairs - Not just TV ratings, but also social media rankings of news TV programs.

The TG1 of Gian Marco Chiocci leads the way, but Enrico Mentana's La7 news program, scheduled for June 2025, is getting closer. Pomeriggio Cinque is holding firm (awaiting Gianluigi Nuzzi 's arrival on TV in the fall), and Mario Giordano 's Fuori dal Coro is soaring. Report is doing well. Who's rising and falling in the social media rankings of news TV programs?
Tg1 first in the social ranking of news programsThe month of June sees Gian Marco Chiocci's Tg1 in command not only in terms of TV ratings, but also this time in the social media ranking of TV news programs (produced for Primaonline by Sensemakers): 64.6 million video views and 2.4 million interactions for a double record.
It dominates TikTok with content related to the news that cell phones cannot be used in class (almost 1.5 million views).
Enrico Mentana accelerates with Tg La7 - Not just TV ratings, the social ranking of news TV programsBut there's some big news behind it: Tg L7 has jumped to second place in both rankings with 48 million and 1.7 million views, respectively. "Although the average publication rate remains essentially stable at around 80 posts per day, the social media profiles of Mentana's news program have seen a cross-sectional increase in interactions (+55%) and video views (+31%)," according to Primaonline.it. According to the analysis, "although 70% of the total content was published on Facebook and X, TikTok garnered 75% of the total interactions recorded in the month." In addition, videos have also seen a 25% increase. Noteworthy is the second place on TikTok, linked to the news that Trump has decided to bomb Iran (1.2 million).
A significant acceleration for Enrico Mentana's news program, about which Pier Silvio Berlusconi recently declared 'Open doors to Mediaset' (during the presentation of the Mediaset schedules). Not to mention the words of Urbano Cairo, who is aiming to renew his contract (expires at the end of 2026) and confessed to Affaritaliani.it : "I was thinking of him for something like 'Letterman Show', he would also be very good at that" ( here is the full interview ).
Mario Giordano's Fuori dal Coro is flying high in the social media rankings of news TV programs.Also starring in the month of June is Mario Giordano and Fuori dal Coro , which is overtaken by Tg La7 in terms of views, but still holds an excellent fourth place overall with 39 million and is practically a silver medal ex aequo in engagement with 1.7 million.
Pomeriggio Cinque is third in videos (42 million) and instead drops to fifth in interactions (1.1 million) in a month of transition with Alessandra Viero who has taken over from Myrta Merlino for the summer version (which ended on Friday 11 July), awaiting the autumn when Gianluigi Nuzzi will arrive in a revamped version of the programme (in view of the challenge with La Vita in diretta di Matano , leader in the TV ratings slot).
Report, Mattino 5 and the trends in the social rankings of news TV programsReport also performed well, entering the top five in videos (23.4 million, a slight increase over the previous month when it was seventh) and fourth in interactions (1.6 million, volume unchanged from the previous ranking). Not only that: the Ra3 program led by Ranucci placed content that ranked first on Instagram and third on Facebook.
In pills
- Top 10 video views with Tg3 in sixth place (22.1 million), ahead of Mattino 5 (18.2), Quarta Repubblica (12.8), Quarto Grado (6.8) and Dritto e Rovescio (4.8)
- Top 10 interactions with Tg3 sixth (900 k), ahead of Propaganda Live (732), Blob (571), Quarta Repubblica (427) and Mattino 5 (381).
- Mattino 5 remains firmly in the top 10 despite falling compared to the previous month (seventh and tenth in the two rankings, it was fifth and eighth), but as Primaonline observes "a good 65% of views and 62% of total interactions come from posts that contained the topic 'Garlasco' , dominant in the offering of many Mediaset programs"
