"Countdown with Keith Olbermann" is the most popular TV show among Democratic viewers

Keith Olbermann tweeted a that reported on the most popular TV shows among Democrats and Republicans:

According to months of data from leading media-research company Experian Simmons, viewers who vote Republican and identify themselves as conservative are more likely than Democrats to love the biggest hits on TV. Of the top 10 broadcast shows on TV in the spring, nine were ranked more favorably by viewers who identify themselves as Republican.

Liberals appreciate many of the same shows, mind you. But their devotion typically is not quite as strong as right-wingers, and Dems are more likely to prefer modestly rated titles.

Like Mad Men.

Republicans' most popular shows? News: Glenn Beck (but I just use "news" loosely to distinguish from category). Reality: The Amazing Race. Comedy: Modern Family. Drama: V.

Democrats' favorite shows? News: Countdown! Reality: Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami (yeah they're Kardashian family members...this show is gonna make conservatives smirk that "liberals are idiots"). Comedy: 30 Rock. Drama: Mad Men. Full list at link.
