Megyn Kelly Tops Night In Cable News Ratings
deadline hollywood ^ | October 9,2013 | By LISA DE MORAES,

Has Fox News Channel found the new queen of primetime cable news? In her second night on Fox News’ new primetime lineup, Megyn Kelly clocked the highest adults 25-54 rating across all of cable news, building on her Bill O’Reilly lead-in. Kelly averaged 623,000 demo viewers and 2.8 million viewers overall — and did it without Sen. Ted Cruz, her premiere-night big “get.”

Compared to her maiden voyage in primetime the previous night Kelly’s show jumped 116% in the demo and 34% in overall audience. In so doing, she beat CNN’s Piers Morgan and MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow combined — in both metrics. Morgan logged 590,000 viewers, 169,000 of them in the demo; Maddow logged 1.1 million viewers, 291,000 in the demo.

Her first night was not promising, but can be excused maybe due to first night nerves. But IMO she made up for it big time Tuesday and Wednesday..

This thread should be interesting considering the thread of Monday night were Freepers were thrashing her for asking Cruz tough questions. As I said then, give it couple days to get her feet wet. She did a great job on destroying the Obunga Admin. for dissing the Military

All I saw of her first night was the Cruz part and I turned her off half way through it. She was snotty and petulant - maybe that was her way acting tough and unbiased. Cruz subtly humiliated her in my opinion.

I may give her another shot, I don't know. I don't watch Fox much these days, anyway.

Been watching her and elieve me, she does a great job.

Now let us pray on our knees that Fox lets loose that awful Bill O’Reilly and his bombast.

That would NOT be a fair fight. Between the two, the biggest pussy would have a British accent.

Meghan Kelly and the new FNC lineup is sounding the death knell for CNN & MSNBC!!! Her Tuesday & Wednesday shows were stunning and effective. She just about proved the POTUS Obama is directly behind denying death benefits to “killed-in-action” military folks and their bereaving families!!!

Obama, hates the USA military, the USA country & the USA people!!! He should be impeached for what he has done to our honored wounded and dead men & women!!! And....Secretary of Defense, “traitor” Chuck Hagel should either be fired or resign immediately for betraying our troops and their bereaved families. Both of them Obama & Hagel = scum human beings!!!!

I may switch from BOR to Kelly.

She picked a good time to debut.

But only 623 thousand in the “Demo” out of 2.8 million.

That’s alot of geezers watching FOX.
