As for CNN, the network was a distant No. 2 in total viewers (2.73 million) but closer with adults 25-54 (950,610). MSNBC came in at No. 3, relatively in line with its New Hampshire showing, with 1.75 million viewers and 493,692 adults 25-54.
It was a robust night for cable news, but not as much as Iowa. Overall cable news viewership for primetime, a gross 8.65 million viewers, was off by 1.5 million viewers from last Monday. And, unlike Iowa, not all of the networks were up from 2008. Only FNC rose from the last two-race New Hampshire Primary.
