As NewsBusters previously reported, MSNBC's "Countdown" saw a 35 percent rise in viewers last Tuesday when the host came back after his brief suspension over his campaign contributions.

By Monday, he had given up all of this bounce and then some:

•Tuesday November 9's total viewers were 1,499,000
•Monday November 15's total viewers were 1,039,000
•Thursday November 4's total viewers were 1,114,000

Nice little 460,000 drop in just four days.

FNC is just creaming the competition too, at all hours!  I think Red Eye at 3a.m. kicks KO's prime time numbers!

At one time "Redeye" was routinely beating PMSNBC prime time ratings.
