Chris Hayes Delivers MSNBCs Lowest 8 PM Ratings Since 2006
MSNBCs great experiment of putting Chris Hayes at 8 PM has turned into a total disaster as All In is delivering the networks lowest ratings since 2006.
Chris Hayes second full month in prime time since taking over for Ed Schultz saw total viewership drop by 32%, and viewership among those age 25-54 decline by 13%. All Ins bad ratings caused The Rachel Maddow Show to deliver its worst ratings month since 2008. Maddows ratings are down 21% in terms of total viewers, and 22% with viewers age 25-54. The Last Word with Lawrence ODonnell had the smallest decline in total viewers at 18%, but suffered a 33% decline with viewers age 25-54.
Chris Hayes is going to take a lot of heat for these ratings, but it isnt all his fault. Phil Griffin and the other geniuses running MSNBC tossed Ed Schultz out of weeknights because they thought they could remake the network as wonk TV, and attract more younger viewers with Chris Hayes.
They couldnt have been more wrong.
