NBC’s “Meet the Press” was the top Sunday public affairs program on December 11. “MTP” has been going back and forth over the last few weeks with CBS’ “Face the Nation” as the top Sunday show in total and demo viewers, but last week it was easily number one in both categories, with CBS staking a solid number two.
ABC’s “This Week,” which will be getting a new (old) moderator January 8, placed third in both categories, with “Fox News Sunday” and “Al Punto” switching off for fourth and fifth place in total and demo viewers.
All of the programs were down compared to the same week last year.
