MSNBC saw its audience crater on Thursday, just days after the left-of-center network beat CNN in election night ratings for the first time ever.
Thursday’s total average daily viewers on Fox News came in at 2.6 million and 375,000 in the coveted 25-54 age demographic, according to Nielsen data. Meanwhile, MSNBC brought in only 596,000 total viewers and 71,000 in the demo. CNN brought in 419,000 total viewers on Thursday and 91,000 viewers in the demo.
Fox News was up some 60 percent year over year for the day, while MSNBC and CNN were down 23 and 40 percent – respectively.
