Despite a tight ratings battle between NBC and CBS of late, Sunday morning’s NBC debate — which drew more than 4,000,000 viewers — propelled “Meet the Press” to a win on January 8.
“Face the Nation” placed second in both categories, followed by ABC’s “This Week” in third on the day of George Stephanopoulos’ debut (again). “Fox News Sunday” and Univision’s “Al Punto” traded off fourth and fifth place in total and demo viewers.
