The Gov. Sarah Palin “carryover effect” described by FNC VP of news editorial Jay Wallace to TVNewser yesterday seems to have continued all the way to the weekend.
FNC’s hour-long Palin special, which premiered at 8pmET on Saturday and was reported by Greta Van Susteren, totaled 2.734 million Total Viewers and 673,000 in the A25-54 demo — making it the top-rated FNC prime time documentary in its history.
It was the highest-rated cable news program on Saturday, as well as when it repeated on Sunday, in both categories.
