(The word “will” appears before it in the list. Sometimes “will” is a name, but in this instance it is a “stop-word” and doesn’t count).

1: Note that this is #tcot mentions in the context of cable news shows, not overall. There were roughly 680K #tcot tweets overall; clearly, most were not referencing a cable news show.
An uptick in Cashin’ In’s mentions on Saturday, as the show wins both best hour and best day overall to finish out the month. Following Cashin’ In was the 3am showing of Red Eye (Goodbye, Greg!), each hour of Harris-Perry, and the 10pm showing of Hannity:

The nearly 6.5K mentions Cashin’ In had during the show was a nice boost over last week’s 5.4K. Cashin’ In had more mentions during its hour, in fact, than the next four shows combined did in their hours.
