“I wonder if they’ll report the dems numbers when it’s over. I haven’t even watched the wrap up of the previous night. LOL. Not interested in seeing a bunch of whiners and haters.”
Here are last night’s numbers for the Dems:
CNN: 6.29 million viewers
MSNBC: 4.64 million
NBC: 4.29 million
ABC: 4.11 million
Fox News: 3.33 million
CBS: 3.11 million
“The opening night of the Democratic National Convention drew ratings above the first night of the Republican convention last week and from the 2012 DNC opener, though comparisons to the latter aren’t entirely apples to apples.
About 25.9 million people — 25.87 million, to be more precise — tuned into the 10 p.m. ET coverage on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Fox News and MSNBC. That’s up from 22.53 million on those channels for the RNC last Monday.
Combined ratings in the key news demo of adults 25-54 (8.5 vs. 6.2) and adults 18-49 (6.5 vs. 4.4) were also up.
CNN had the biggest audience of the night with 6.29 million viewers, a 2.4 in adults 25-54 and a 2.0 in adults 18-49. MSNBC (4.64 million, 1.6, 1.2) edged out its broadcast counterpart NBC (4.29 million, 1.5, 1.1) for second.
Compared to the 2012 convention, Monday’s numbers were also up — 21.93 million watched the opening night then. However, the Democrats staged a three-day convention four years ago with the first night airing on a Tuesday.”
