BCBeat wonders: Do “Streamers Trump TV Viewers?” For MSNBC, it appears so: “Earlier this week, MSNBC said there had been 850,000 accesses of Pope-related streamed video on its Web site, msnbc.com. By Friday, it said, that number had jumped to almost four million (3,989,000).” Millions of streams in a few days! “Now, some of those hits are certainly repeat customers, but it is still an impressive number, particularly given that in March, MSNBC averaged 336,000 viewers per day to its cable channel.”
> Update: 1:41pm: “That’s 336,000 viewers per hour not ‘per day,'” an e-mailer says.
