Ratings: Sarah Palin Beats 'The Perky One'

Tuesday's ratings numbers are in, and "The Rogue" beat "The Perky One."

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin defeated Katie Couric in their heavily hyped ratings duel on the airwaves on Tuesday when Palin co-hosted NBC's "Today" show while Couric was guest-hosting ABC's "Good Morning America."

According to Nielsen Fast National Data, "Today" drew 5.497 million viewers while "Good Morning America" had 5.141 million on Tuesday. With Palin co-hosting on Tuesday, "Today" bested "GMA" by 356,000 viewers. That margin was greater, by 8 percent, than the 333,000 viewer advantage "Today" had on Monday, when Palin was not on the show.

Palin told Breitbart News last Sunday that she would be "going rogue" and "infiltrating some turf for a day" on the "Today" Show and, when asked about confronting Couric on the airwaves, Palin simply told Breitbart News, "Game On."
