Court TV Has “Outpaced CNN” In May

In the first two weeks of May, Court TV has “outpaced CNN in viewers,” the NY Times reports. “Since late February,” when the Michael Jackson court proceedings commenced, “Nielsen estimates for its all-Michael-all-the-time daytime programming are up 100 percent in households compared with the same period last year. Through last Monday, an average weekday during the trial has brought in an audience of 416,000, which is 146 percent more viewers than the channel drew in those months last year.”

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16.
