Fox News Channel now accounts for the top 1,000 cable news telecasts since Election Day as the network continues to dominate the landscape.
Since Election Day last November, Fox News has placed the top 1,013 cable news telecasts in television.
One of the highlights includes its coverage of President Donald Trump's inauguration in January, when it drew 11.7 million viewers during his swearing-in, the highest-rated hour of the year so far.
MSNBC’s "The Rachel Maddow Show" didn’t appear on the list until 1,014th place, in a March 24 episode that netted 2.4 million viewers. Maddow returned to only airing on Mondays this week after putting her show on five nights a week for the first 100 days of the new Trump administration.
