CNN Falls To Fifth In Prime Time Demo Wednesday Night

Cable news ratings, February 3rd, 2010: Check out the highlights, and see the full ratings below:

• CNN finished fifth in the prime time demo Wednesday night, behind FNC, MSNBC, HLN and even CNBC. It was the second day in a row CNN was fifth. That’s twice in a row – but before this week, it had only happened four times in CNN’s lengthy history.

• Bill O’Reilly‘s interview with Jon Stewart helped the FNC host to, once again, the top show on cable news in total viewers and the A25-54 demographic.
