Rachel Maddow

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow proved once again that despite hosting her show only once a week, she is still the main draw on the network. On Monday night Maddow brought in a whopping 2.3 million total viewers — far outpacing anyone else on her network.

Lawrence O’Donnell, who followed Maddow, scored 1.57 million total viewers to come in second on MSNBC, while Nicolle Wallace came in third place with 1.3 million total viewers.

Despite her strong showing, Maddow still came in second during the 9 p.m. time slot as Fox News’s Sean Hannity brought in 2.62 million total viewers. CNN came in third place at 9 p.m. with 667,000 total viewers.
