Delivering 3.621 million total viewers, MTP beat CBS’ “Face the Nation” by six percent (+187,000) and ABC’s “This Week” by +22 percent (+652,000). For eight of the past nine weeks, MTP has won in total viewers.

In the demo most valued by news advertisers, MTP was watched by 1.113 million A25-54 viewers, topping CBS by +18 percent (+171,000) and ABC by +27 percent (+238,000). This marks the 10th consecutive Sunday that MTP was #1 in the key demo.
