Cable News Twitter Ratings for Monday, May 5, 2014 — ¡Bravo Ed!
The Ed Show starts the week off with a strong Monday, winning best hour. All-in With Chris Hayes also had a strong evening, but after that MSNBC’s schedule fizzled out, perhaps because MSNBC viewers were following Thomas Roberts’ lead and celebrating Cinco de Mayo. In CNN, Anderson Cooper managed to get over the 1K mentions mark.

Cable News Twitter Ratings for Sunday, May 4, 2014 — MSNBC’s M’s Have it
The Melissa Harris-Perry Show took best hour and Meet The Press, which re-broadcasts on MSNBC, took best day. MTP demonstrates the power of traditional broadcast networks, which still have a much larger reach and audience than cable-only networks. If you took MTP out of the competition, Harris-Perry would have won best day as well.
