Maddow Is Most-Watched Cable News Host

April 5, 2018 at 8:12 am EDTBy Taegan Goddard

Forbes: “In March, The Rachel Maddow Show finished as the highest-rated show in cable news, with an average total audience of 3.058 million viewers–the show’s best-ever performance in the 9 p.m. ET hour. FNC’s Hannity was second, with 3.000 million viewers. Maddow also won among viewers 25-54, the demographic most valued by advertisers, finishing March with an average audience of 671,000 compared to Hannity’s 616,000.

of a young Dan Rather back when he was dogging Nixon.
At one press conference Nixon asked him, "Are you running for something?"
Rather replied, "No, are YOU running FROM something?"
Nixon looked like he'd been slapped.
Ahhhh... the good ol' days when journalists were not entertainers and the
Fairness Doctrine protected the public airways.

I've seen his show, and unless they're fans of Ollie North and Charlie Daniels' fiddle music, I don't see much there that appeals to someone with a man bun. His 25-54 should be about twelve viewers, not counting aspiring Nazis.
