MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show overtook Fox News Channel’s The O’Reilly Factor to claim first place on the Experian Hitwise list of cable-news-show websites for the week ending March 12, dropping O’Reilly to second. The No. 3 slot went to MSNBC’s Meet the Press.
CBS was once again the top broadcast-network website, but Fox and ABC swapped positions, with Fox climbing to second and Fox dropping to third. Fox’s American Idol held on to first place on the list of broadcast-show websites, with CBS’ NCIS moving up to No. 2, and third place going to CBS’ Survivor. Fast risers were NBC’s The Event (to No. 10 from No. 53), and ABC’s Secret Millionaire (22 from 39).
The top three cable-show websites were unchanged from the week ending March 5: MTV’s Jersey Shore, and Comedy Central’s South Park and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Fast risers were Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Orange County (10 from 22), Meet the Press (21 from 34), and Lifetime Television’s Coming Home (25 from 57).
When combining broadcast and cable shows, the top two were unchanged from the previous week — American Idol and Nickelodeon’s SpongeBob SquarePants — while Jersey Shore surged into third place. The only fast riser was VH1′s Basketball Wives (20 from 36).

Experian Hitwise: Little Movement Except for Fox News Channel’s The O’Reilly Factor Claiming Cable-News Crown
The top three cable-news-show sites for the week ending Nov. 20 were the same as the week ending Nov. 13, but in a completely different order, according to Experian Hitwise, with Fox News Channel’s The O’Reilly Factor leaping into first place, followed by MSNBC Live, and last week’s winner, MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann, slipping to third.
TBS’ Lopez Tonight dropped off the list of the top three late-night talk-show sites, with Comedy Central’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart topping the list for the second consecutive week, trailed by TBS’s Conan and Comedy’s The Colbert Report.
The top three broadcast-network sites were unchanged for the third week in a row: CBS, ABC, and The CW. The top three broadcast-show sites were also unchanged from the previous week: ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, Fox’s Glee, and CBS’ NCIS. There were no fast risers on the broadcast list.
The cable-show list was unchanged, as well: Comedy Central’s South Park, Oxygen’s Bad Girls Club, and MTV’s 16 and Pregnant. The only fast riser for cable was Food Network’s Down Home with the Neelys (to No. 20 from No. 32).
Continuing with the theme, the combined broadcast and cable list also featured the same top three: Nickelodeon’s SpongeBob SquarePants, South Park, and Dancing with the Stars. There were no fast risers.
Hitwise: Late-Night Talk Shows Added to Rankings, Won by The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
WebNewser received the weekly television-related Web-site reports from Hitwise for the first time in three weeks, but the results for the week ending Sept. 18 came with a surprise: Late-night talk shows were added as a category, joining cable news, which debuted for the week ending July 3, as well as mainstays broadcast networks, broadcast shows, cable (adults only) shows, and broadcast and cable combined.
NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jay Leno was No. 1 in the late-night category, followed by TBS’ Lopez Tonight, and CBS’ Late Show with David Letterman.
