Much was made of Katie Couric coming to CBS for the evening news, and most assumed the move would put CBS on top of the evening news ratings hunt.
The first broadcast of CBS Evening News with Katie Couric averaged 13.59M viewers, but ever since then ratings have been dropping (the 2nd broadcast lost 22%) and NBC’s Nightly News with Brian Williams has now passed her for first place in weekly ratings.
Here are the ratings for the week of September 18th to the 22nd:
NBC – Nightly News with Brian Williams
- 5.7/12 HH Rating
- 2.1 A25-54 Rating
- 8,182,000 Viewers
CBS – Evening News with Katie Couric
- 5.5/11 HH Rating
- 2.1 A25-54 Rating
- 7,690,000 Viewers
ABC – World News with Charles Gibson
