Fox News’ The Five returned to familiar territory with more than 4 million total viewers. The newscast was also 25,000 viewers short of reaching the 500,000 mark in the Adults 25-54 demo. Meanwhile, The Rachel Maddow Show was MSNBC’s most-watched show in both measured categories. A little over 500,000 total viewers separated it from the first place Hannity at 9 p.m. ET. CNN saw a total viewer tie between the 5 p.m. hour of The Lead with Jake Tapper and Erin Burnett OutFront. The Lead’s 6 p.m. hour was first in the demo for the network.
