"With 1.9 million instances of social media chatter, the CNN Southern Republican Presidential Debate generated more activity than any other debate to have topped our past social TV charts. \nDuring the event, CNN posted five Facebook topics, which produced over 6,000 Likes and comments. In response to CNN's 28 Twitter updates regarding the debate, users retweeted 4,500 times, up 258% from the average of the three debates last year. And those are just CNN's stats...\nAmerican Idol came in second, squeezing into the charts Sunday night, right after the NFL Championship game ended on FOX. Not too shabby.\nThe data below is compliments of our friends at Trendrr,  who measure specific TV show activity (mentions, likes, checkins) across Twitter, Facebook, GetGlue and Miso.
