ABC’s World News Tonight got an across-the-board ratings win last week, and continues to draw its largest viewership in 13 years – since the 2004-05 season. The David Muir-anchored broadcast was the only network news show to see overall growth: up +6 percent in viewers and up +4 percent in the A25-54 demo, vs. the same week last year.
NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt was flat in viewers and down -9 in the demo; the CBS Evening News with Jeff Glor was also down -9 percent in both measurements.
