Maddow on MSNBC's ratings surge: People are looking for answers
By John Bowden - 05/23/17 09:08 AM EDT

MSNBC's Rachel Maddow says she's not sure why her show is suddenly trouncing Fox News in ratings.

“It's hard to understand why these things happen, but it's nice,” she told host Stephen Colbert on CBS's "The Late Show" on Monday night.

Maddow said her show hasn't changed its approach to the news, but viewers' appetite for political coverage has changed since President Trump's inauguration.

"I do cable news in kind of a weird way. We haven't changed how we do the show at all. It just seems like more people want that now," she said.

LOL!

People are rubber necking.

They want to witness the 'crazy' firsthand, so they tune in.

I'll bet there are more non-liberals tuning in just out of curiosity...from what they hear on the internet.
