The cable news ratings are in for the first full week of May, and it’s good news for CNN, the only network to show increases in both total viewers and the coveted Adults 25-54 demographic across primetime.

According to AdWeek, citing national live+same-day big data plus program ratings from Nielsen, CNN averaged 683,000 total primetime viewers and 126,000 demo viewers for the week of May 4. This was up 8 percent in total viewers and up 25 percent in the demo compared to the week prior.
