On Monday night, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow once again topped Sean Hannity in the demo — also retaining her top spot on her own network. In total viewers, the case wasn’t quite the same, with Hannity regaining a comfortable lead over Maddow.
MSNBC colleague Lawrence O’Donnell also had a good night, topping Greta Van Susteren in the demo (but not in total viewers). Elsewhere, Erin Burnett had the highest-rated show on CNN in the demo, coming in second in total viewers.
Here are the rest of your Monday night ratings:
