Despite strong news about the Olympics and continuing coverage of Michael Dunn’s murder trial in Jacksonville, FL, there were no topics that completely dominated cable news Twitter on Sunday. The return of MSNBC’s schedule to more or less normal did propel that network’s morning shows to the top of the Cable News Twitter ratings; full details can be seen here.

What a difference a lead-in makes! The Melissa Harris-Perry Show had been suffering in the doldrums with Olympic coverage preceding it and, at one point, cut time out of the program.

This is all the more impressive as Joy Reid was guest hosting the show, so things were not completely back to normal.
Up with Steve Kornacki managed to generate strong Twitter buzz itself in its first show back after the Olympic disruption, and so the morning as a whole was a solid one for MSNBC.
The partial results from the Michael Dunn murder trial dominated Twitter talk about Cable News on Saturday…
