Veep sweeps: NBC, FNC take the honors
The VP debate Tuesday night (10/5/04) did not pull the same numbers as the first of three meetings between George W. Bush and John Kerry, but Dick Cheney v. John Edwards still scored a significant win over Cheney v/ Joe Leiberman four years ago.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the 2004 Vice Presidential debate hats a 28.1 rating, a 41 share, commanded the set in 30.935M households in which 43.568M people were watching.
The 2000 veep face-off essentially got its kiester kicked, with a 21 rating, 36 share 21.501M households and 29.089 viewers.
The biggest share of viewers went to NBC (11.M), followed by ABC (10.3M) and CBS (9.2M).
If the cable channels couldn't match those numbers, they were certainly respectable. Fox News Channel (7.8M) scored a clear knockout over CNN (3.2M) and MSNBC (1.5M).
RBR observation:
I feel kind of lonely. My wife and I watched both debates on C-SPAN (with some channel flipping just to see who was splitting the screen and how). For the record, C-SPAN split the screen down the middle. Both candidates were in clear view at all times. The cable net picked one shot of each man and used it throughout.
