Friday Ratings: MSNBC’s Maddow (With Fill-In Host) Beats Fox’s Hannity In Demo

 

Friday night, during the 9 p.m. ET hour, MSNBC’s Maddow beat Fox News competitor Sean Hannity in the key 25-54 demo. The feat was accomplished not even with eponymous host Rachel Maddow in the anchor chair, but with fill-in host Ezra Klein at the helm.

Maddow‘s 269k in the ages 25-54 demo was enough to beat Hannity’s 250k in the demo. However, Hannity’s 1.44M total viewers bested Maddow‘s 1.02M total.
