Cable News Trending Topics for 2014-01-25
Mike Huck-a-who? After dominating Twitter on Friday, Mike Huckabee quickly faded as the outrage-du-jour and was replaced by brisk conversation about the Columbia mall shooting. There were over 6000 tweets that mentioned the shooting, and over 5000 of them referenced CNN — in fact the vast majority of them were either retweets of CNN or quotes of CNN’s breaking news tweets.
The is a small validation of the general rule that when it comes to actual breaking news, CNN is the network of choice for people.
