I’m rather surprised. I thought for sure this would break all records.

Do these figures include people who watched live-streams on YouTube?

I wish that C-SPAN viewers were included. I watch all debates on C-SPAN, only!

Fire Chris Wallace.
Have Emerald Robinson moderate a debate.
After that, have Tucker Carlson moderate a debate, and watch the world change.

I don’t think so. The article says the tally is from the 16 networks who showed it. I was wondering the same thing. Is there any way to measure viewership via streaming?

I watched it on OAN. I don’t know why C-SPAN, OAN and others would not be included in the ratings. Then again, maybe they are...
“The numbers are from Nielsen and include 16 networks.”

No actual commercial interruptions on C-SPAN, plus they show live prep of the presidential debates/vice presidential debates up to an hour before the debates, which I like.

It probably depends on when the measured the audience. I spoke to six casual acquaintances today about it, and five of them said they turned it off after no more than ten minutes because it was an idiotic waste of time.

If it did break records, do you really think they’d be honest about it?

Getting people to tune out early was likely the intent.
I’m sorry so many obliged.

Having the stupid thing start at 9:00PM on the East Coast didnt help. Even when I was an avid NFL fan I never watched Monday Night Football games for that very reason.

Dems don’t want to look at their candidate so they don’t have to admit he’s a con job.
