Megyn Kelly's new primetime show jumped 38 percent with
total viewers to 2.8 million and an astonishing 116 percent among adults 18-54 to
623,000, from Monday nights debut
totals. What is noteworthy is the fact that the
so-called “demo” audience, those folks
between 18 and 54 who buy stuff,
totaled 508,947 for Fox, but only
264,277 for 2nd place,
MSNBC.
Kelly’s Tuesday night
totals, brought in more than 620,000 in
this demo group, besting [even] Bill O’Reilly. Sean Hannity,
who was moved from the 6:00 pm time slot (Pacific Time), also
fared considerably better in his second night at 7 p.m., pst. Sean
averaged 2.17 million viewers and 517,047 with the
demo audience, a surprisingly strong showing for the conservative
pundit. His totals, also,
bested CNN and MSNBC competition combined.
In fact, Fox News
continues to field audiences that total more than CNN, MSNBC
and HLN, combined.
But the real news,
here, is this: Megyn Kelly may be
the new “point man” for the network.
Good for her . . . . . . very good news, for her and good news for commonsense, conservative reporting.
