http://deadline.com/2017/02/donald-trump-bill-oreilly-super-bowl-interview-ratings-1201903376/This comes up short compared stats for former POTUS Barack Obamas pre-Super Bowl sit downs. But, among the important variables, the annual pre-game POTUS chats proximity to the actual Super Bowl impacts the interviews audience size in no small way. And Trumps first pre-game POTUS chat aired at 4 PM ET; the game started at 6:45 PM ET.
For comparison: Obamas first pre-Super Bowl chat, on NBC, netted nearly 22 million viewers. And, OReillys pre-game slugfest with Obama, in 2011, bagged 17.3M viewers.

did they just have the TV tuned to that channel for the game?
Many were probably tailgating in their kitchen or visiting with guests and not paying attention.
That's what happened at the superbowl party I was at.
