Continues as #1 Most-Watched Sunday Public Affairs Program Season-to-Date<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Delivers Most Audience Growth Compared to Last Season Across the Board\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

JULY 11, 2017 \u2013 NBC News\u2019 \u201cMeet the Press with Chuck Todd\u201d (MTP) was the most-watched Sunday public affairs program in the audience most valued by news advertisers this past Sunday according to Nielsen data, marking its fourth straight week at #1.<\/p>\n

The network broadcast continues as the #1 most-watched Sunday public affairs program season-to-date, leading its competition across the board.<\/p>\n

This past Sunday\u2019s broadcast<\/a> featured exclusive interviews with former CIA Director John Brennan, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and party chairs Tom Perez of the Democratic Party and Ronna McDaniel of the Republican Party.<\/p>\n

Delivering 878,000 A25-54 key demo viewers, MTP beat its competition by double-digits, delivering +25 percent (+176,000) more than ABC\u2019s \u201cThis Week\u201d and +30 percent (+201,000) more than CBS\u2019 \u201cFace the Nation. Comparing the key demo to the same Sunday last year, MTP has more than doubled its lead over ABC (176,000 vs. 76,000 a year ago) and has improved its advantage over CBS by 118 percent (201,000 vs. 92,000 a year ago). Season-to-date, MTP holds its biggest advantage over CBS in eight years and over ABC in six years amongst A25-54 viewers.<\/p>\n

2.964 million viewers tuned into the broadcast on Sunday, eight percent (+213,000) more than ABC. MTP\u2019s advantage over ABC in total viewers has grown 39 percent in the past year (213,000 vs. 154,000 a year ago). MTP is outperforming ABC by +436,000 total viewers season-to-date, its best advantage in five years. Less than half of a percentage point (.04 percent) of total viewers separated MTP from CBS, which continues to claim ratings based on the first half-hour of its hour broadcast. MTP is beating CBS by +4,000 total viewers season-to-date, its best advantage in five years.<\/p>\n

More viewers continue to turn to moderator Chuck Todd on Sundays, as MTP delivers the largest audience growth compared to last season across the board: a four percent gain (+126,000) in total viewers and a nine percent gain (+88,000) in the key demo.<\/p>\n

In the influential Washington, D.C. market, MTP outperformed its competition across the board and continues as the most-watched Sunday show in the market since March 22, 2015.<\/p>\n

An additional 1.301 million total viewers and 254,000 key demo viewers watched the program through rebroadcasts on MSNBC.<\/p>\n
