Cable News Ratings Monday July 11: Nicolle Wallace Breaks Fox’s Dominance

Nicolle Wallace on MSNBC

Fox News has spent the last several quarters comfortably dominating the ratings charts. But occasionally, a host from CNN or MSNBC breaks through to win their hour — usually with the help of some major news event.

Nicolle Wallace, host of MSNBC’s Deadline: White House, pulled that feat off without an assist from breaking news on Monday.

Wallace, whose show opened with a preview of Tuesday’s hearing from the Jan. 6 House select committee, averaged 1.38 million viewers across two hours.

That was enough to beat Neil Cavuto, whose 4 p.m. Fox News show Your World pulled in 1.35 million viewers.

However, The Five on Fox News did crush Deadline White House in its second hour.

Cavuto still bested Wallace in the key 25-54 age demographic, however, drawing 224,000 to her 126,000.

Here is a full breakdown of Monday’s cable news ratings by show:
