Hours after Current TV ousted its star host, Keith Olbermann, former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer debuted his new show on the network, “Viewpoint.” The Hollywood Reporter reports that the show debuted to rather low ratings:

Spitzer’s debut pulled only 47,000 total viewers, with just 10,000 in the key 25-54 demographic. While viewership is generally depressed on Fridays, that’s still down 74 percent compared to Olbermann’s March average in the 8 p.m. timeslot.
