MSNBC's the Ed show set a rating record, but don't expect anyone at the show to be too excited.

The record was for low ratings, not high. 

The Ed Show pulled in a new low of 35K in the 25-54 demo on Wednesday, making it by far the lowest rated show across all of cable news.

In its 5 p.m. time slot, CNN’s The Situation Room had nearly 5 times as many viewers with 156K and Fox News’ The Five had nearly 10 times as many with 331K. 

Ouch!
