Carlson, whose monologues include targeting anything and anyone he believes is deserving of criticism and highlighting topics that are not being widely discussed in the media, also notched first place in the important 25-54 age demographic. Last week he averaged 680,000 in the age demo per night, according to Nielsen Media Research.
Carlson covered a range of topics last week, from the problems with Seattle's "Capitol Hill Occupy Protest" movement to the issues with subscription site OnlyFans.
