Fox News’ “Hannity” finished the month of September as the most-watched cable news program among the key demo of adults age 25-54, marking the first time Sean Hannity‘s show won a month since moving to 10 p.m. ET in 2013.
“Hannity” averaged 525,000 demo viewers, topping his lead-in “The Kelly File” by roughly 22,000 viewers per night. Kelly won the demo for the third quarter of 2016, which includes September, but Hannity has surged recently because of numerous exclusive interviews with Donald Trump.
Hannity has been criticized by liberal media watchdogs for his chummy relationship with the GOP presidential candidate and even appeared in a recent Trump promotional video.
