It was a split decision for the Sunday shows last week, with CBS’ “Face the Nation” winning in Total Viewers and NBC’s “Meet the Press” winning in the A25-54 demographic.
ABC’s “This Week” was third, “Fox News Sunday” was fourth and Univision’s “Al Punto” was fifth.
Compared to the same week last year, only CBS and ABC are up in Total Viewers. “Face the Nation” is up +8% and “This Week” is up +2%. All the shows are down among younger viewers year-over-year.
