The convention likely introduced new viewers to MSNBC as they have picked up around 500,000 per show since. I check with tvnewser mediabistro hoping to see Current listed. I gather it will never be factored in owing to their only presenting news programming from 7 pm - midnight (ET). With tvnewser rathings, you always have to go to another link to get the overall ratings as the first shown are Demo areas.
