McCain Beats Obama in TV Ratings

More people watched John McCain give his convention acceptance speech than they did Barack Obama, reports the Live Feed.

The Nielsen Media ratings numbers don’t include PBS viewers, so adding them in gives Barack Obama a slight advantage in the total number of viewers.

Writes James Hibberd about the record-breaking number of viewers who turned in for the convention speeches:

If election night is half as close and contested as Thursday’s ratings race, we’re in for a heckuva evening.

John McCain’s speech was watched by more viewers than Barack Obama’s, according to Nielsen Media Research.

The Republican nominee beat Obama’s record-setting convention speech viewership by 500,000 among broadcast and cable networks.
