Biden Had More Television Viewers for His Speech

The Nielsen ratings across three broadcast and three cable news networks finds 14.1 million people tuned in for President Trump’s speech last night.

In contrast, Joe Biden had 17.5 million viewers for his speech the week before.

Also interesting: “The length of President Trump’s speech, the longest acceptance speech in history, did not appear to have any impact on viewership. Looking at overnight ratings by quarter hour, the ratings held basically steady throughout.“
