Cable News Trending Topics for 2014-04-01
Well, dang. I would have thought Monday’s Colbert Report put the whole cancel Colbert things to rest, but I guess not: Colbert had the best (half-) hour, best day, and top hashtag.
Something else that’s interesting — the three main cable news networks had almost exactly the same number of mentions, with MSNBC coming out on top (on, I presume, the strength of the news about the Affordable Care Act).
Top Shows for the day:
| Category | Mentions | Show |
| Most Mentions During Hour | 2703 | Comedy Central: The Colbert Report (11:30-12am) |
| Most Mentions During Day | 14430 | Comedy Central: The Colbert Report (11:30-12am) |
