'Matter of Fact with Soledad O'Brien' Tops Weekend Political Shows on Cable


Hearst Television's weekly political magazine show Matter of Fact with Soledad O'Brien has expanded its reach to 85% coverage of the United States.

In Hearst TV markets, the program outperforms every broadcast TV Sunday morning political show with the exception of Meet the Press in the Adults 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 demographics, and it delivers more viewers than every weekend political show on cable.

"Matter of Fact viewers are clearly more interested in watching people converse rationally, using facts to further their point of view, rather than watching divisive rhetoric," said anchor Soledad O'Brien. "Our new stations pursue stories and topics that affect millions of Americans which are so often under-reported -- crucial issues like the opioid epidemic, veterans' needs and post-traumatic stress, immigration, gerrymandering and health care."

The show's average weekly audience has also seen rapid growth, nearly tripling since its first-season launch.

With the additions of new stations, Matter of Fact, produced by Hearst Television and distributed by Sony Pictures Television, will air on 123 TV stations, including 28 of the top 30 TV markets.
