CNN Worlds News Leader?

Last week CNN's weekday (Mon-Fri) average primetime viewership of 395,000 was its lowest in more than 20 years (since September, 1991, I lack prior data).

4th lowest weekday average for the news target adults 25-54 demo (111,000)
3rd lowest full week (Mon-Sun) primetime viewership (385,000)
4th lowest full week adults 25-54 demo (104,000)
