April #’s: Dobbs Close To Hume In Demo

Lou Dobbs had the #2 show on CNN in April, and the #1 show among viewers in the 25-54 demo.

As this chart shows, Dobbs’ demo audience has grown each month this year, narrowing the gap between CNN and FNC to only 22,000 viewers at 6 p.m. Brit Hume is still winning, barely.

Versus the same month a year ago, Dobbs has increased his total viewing audience from 559,000 to 817,000, and his demo audience from 157,000 to 211,000.

> April was Hume’s lowest month in the demo (233k) since August 2001 (129k), according to CNN…

> Among total viewers, Hume had 1,202,000 and Dobbs had 810,000.
