Anderson Cooper’s Presence Helps Lift CNN Shows


Fox News finished primetime ahead of two broadcast networks, NBC (2.5 million) and CBS (2.1 million), in total viewers. There is a slow attrition of viewers across the cable news space as the Middle East conflict stabilizes, but Anderson Cooper‘s presence in the region and broadcasting outside of his 8 p.m. ET slot has helped lift some of the network’s shows, such as The Arena with Kasie Hunt. CNN’s 4 p.m. ET show, which he co-anchored. It was the network’s second-most-watched show of the day in total viewers, falling only behind the 10 a.m. ET hour of The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, which had 673,000 total viewers.
