News\u2019 TODAY is the number-one morning show winning both last week and the month of August in total viewers and all demos.\u00a0 For the month, TODAY topped GMA in total viewers (+527,000), A25-54 (+534,000), and A18-49 (+462,000).\u00a0 This marks TODAY\u2019s first monthly win in four years, since August 2012, and its biggest monthly A25-54 lead over GMA since September 2011.\u00a0 TODAY has now won the key demo A25-54 for 12 consecutive months.<\/p>\n<p>For the week of August 22, TODAY beat GMA by +91,000 and CBS This Morning by +927,000.\u00a0 This marks TODAY\u2019s third consecutive

national ratings are based on an expanded sample known as \u201cNPX,\u201d which effectively doubles the size of the Nielsen panel through a combination of additional meters and HHs.\u00a0While NPX is now the official currency of record, all data pre-12\/28\/15 remains based on the old sample \u2014 so year-to-year and other comparisons are versus pre-NPX data.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TODAY
