THE BOYS' BRIGADE

From CNN's Brian Stelter, "Overnight #'s: #GOPDebate had a 16.0 household rating. The biggest GOP debates in 2011/12 had 5.3 ratings."

Also, from Jeff B@AoSHQDD "Holy shit. 16.0 means 16% of all households watched. That's unheard of in modern mega-channel era for a debate."

ADDED: At Twitchy, "LOL: Compare and contrast ratings for the GOP debate and Jon Stewart's final show."
