The very public feud between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk made headlines and brought viewers to the cable news networks. CNN and MSNBC saw increased numbers compared to a typical evening, but Fox News’ The Five remained the top show and the only program with more than 3 million total viewers. CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360 landed in first place for the network, while The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell had the most total viewers for MSNBC.
