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.
