CNN wins demos, Fox News in total viewers

Cory Bergman November 9th, 2006

The ratings are in for election night, and CNN comes away with a victory in the core 25-54 demographic. FNC, however, won in total viewers, but not by much. And MSNBC experienced tremendous growth over 2002:

Fox News Channel
3,060,000 total viewers (+12%)
1,253,000 in 25-54 (+22%)

CNN
2,971,000 total viewers (+21%)
1,330,000 in 25-54 (+34%)

MSNBC
1,949,000 total viewers (+107%)
893,000 in 25-54 (+111%)

Looks like MSNBC is on to something with political news programming.

    i only wish jeff greenfield would have clobbered wolf for telling him to “stand over here”, “come over here”, “step over here”, etc.

    i did hear jeff say jokingly he “didn’t get the choreography”.

    MSNBC rocked. Period. They were better on TV and online than either of the other two.

    Shame so few people saw it.

    I agreed, MSNBC was excellent online (Democracy Dashboard was awesome when you’re in class watch a presentation on DNS), however CNN had better online stats; like demographics, votes break down by county, etc.
