Viewers Sit Out John King TIME Frames Special

Cable news ratings, November 26, 2010:

•CNN’s holiday special TIME Frames with John King was not a timeslot winner, coming up fourth among viewers 25-54 and being soundly beaten by MSNBC’s fill-in fare Caught on Camera and Fox’s holiday edition of FOX Report.

•Most shows on all four news nets saw ratings drops due to the long holiday weekend, but one show had no discernible dip whatsoever:  Nancy Grace, whose audience may be so loyal as to show up even on a holiday.

Here’s the full scoreboard:
