FOX had a big Saturday night with each prime time program bringing in more than 1,000,000 viewers. CNN did not have a good night. MSNBC beat it twice in primetime in Total Viewers. A canned MSNBC Investigates handily outdrew a Live CNN Saturday Night. CNN Presents scratched in the Demo. And MSNBC beat CNN in both the Total Day and Prime Time demos. Tim Russert pulled in less than Suze Orman. Why is Russert’s show still on CNBC instead of MSNBC where it would probably do better? CNBC is a business network but Russert’s show is a news program. It belongs on MSNBC.
