The fallout from the U.S.-led military strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities continues to drum up significant interest in cable news. As usual, Fox News led the way, with six of its evening shows having more than 500,000 Adults 25-54 viewers. Jesse Watters Primetime was the top show in the demo, topping the 600,000 viewer mark. Elsewhere, CNN dispatched Erin Burnett to the Middle East—the U.A.E., to be exact—joining Anderson Cooper, who is in Tel Aviv, Israel. On MSNBC, there was a rare Chris Hayes sighting on a Monday night as he anchored his usual 8 p.m. ET. slot. The rarity of his Monday appearance must have caught viewers off guard, as only 54,000 total viewers separated it from CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360.
