2015 Cable Rankings

CNN finishes 2015 up by 38% in primetime. CNN's boost in the ratings was helped by three presidential primary debates that received record viewership. HLN saw a rise in its ratings too, but Jeff Zucker indicated changes would be made to HLN's programming, which will more closely "resemble" CNN in 2016".


Meanwhile FOX had a "record-setting year". MSNBC remains stuck in third place and is the only cable network down from last year. Perhaps this year's presidentail election will boost MSNBC's ratings as they well positioned to be "the place for politics" again.
