CNN was the top single network on Thursday night among total viewers (approximately 10.8 million) and adults 18-49 (~2.2 rating). The tenth “Republican Presidential Debate”, on both CNN and Spanish-language outlet Telemundo, featured the 3-way shouting match between candidates Donald Trump, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. Based on the combined viewership of 14.5 million from both networks, it was the most-watched debate since CNN’s GOP debate from Dec. 15, 2015, and ranks as the fifth most-watched political debate overall to-date in this presidential election season.
