For the first time, and thanks to TVNewser.com, I’ve pitted the major 24 hour news services against each other in graphical format. Each graph represents average viewers per month, for a given demo, for a given time slot. This data only represents 2009, excluding only a few days where the results were skewed/inaccurate due to the inauguration or a presidential speech. Enjoy. Especially the hours where MSNBC’s viewership is fading because of dribble like this.

It would be interesting to see what the numbers were last year during the campaigns
Fox News is killing the competition, especially Greta. This is shocking, I had the mistaken belief that MSNBC was doing great.
Yeah, MSNBC is hurting pretty badly. Although I can’t say that disappoints me too much.

E vero; FOX e numero uno o il primo.
[...] it appears that MSNBC will see the least percentage drop.The graphs below don’t depict the average viewership per month for each network, only the percentage loss for May. I’ll post the new monthly numbers as soon as May is [...]
