16. But Maddow's momentum has been snowballing.

I've been watching the numbers since before her show came into being, and she hasn'r stopped gaining new viewers. The first time she beat Hannity was about nine months or so ago and it became more and more frequent since then.

Perhaps Hannity viewers think the Benghazi drumbeat is finally getting stale after three solid months of Hannitizing outrage, and have found something else to do at 9:00 now that the election is over, but Rachel's numbers no longer appear to be a fluke.

I disagree that the pressure is on MSNBC.
