ABC’s World News Tonight with David Muir wins another week in the evening, with a +4 percent viewer lead on NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt.
Holt, who took his program across America last week to cities including Portland, Pittsburgh and Chicago, was most-watched in the A25-54 demo, with a very slim .3 percent lead on Muir’s broadcast.
Compared to the same week last year ABC was up +2 percent in both viewers and the demo. Nightly news was down -1 percent in viewers and down -7 percent in the demo. CBS Evening News with Jeff Glor, which is originating from Jerusalem tonight, was down -5 percent in viewers and down -6 percent in the demo.
