New Day on Monday

CNN’s New Day beat Morning Joe, its MSNBC competition, in the advertiser coveted 25-54 age demographic on Monday.

John Berman and Brianna Keilar-hosted New Day, which has seen some wins recently after struggling in the ratings in the last year, averaged 131,000 across three hours in the demo. Morning Joe, hosted by Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, placed third in cable news with 75,000 in the demo.

Fox & Friends, as usually, dominated the morning shows, averaging 270,000 viewers in the demo.

In total viewers, Fox & Friends placed first, Morning Joe came second, and New Day third.

It wasn’t just CNN’s New Day either: every CNN show beat every MSNBC show in the demo on Monday.

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