Football dominates television viewing as holiday nears
NEW YORK — Professional football — the lifeblood of live television this time of year — illustrated its dominance in the ratings this past week. Four NFL games finished among the Nielsen company's 20 most popular prime-time programs, with NBC's Sunday night and Fox's Thursday contests the top two. Both games featured Los Angeles teams. Add in three pre-game shows, and football accounted for seven of Nielsen's entries. The games usually dwarf regular programming. For example, Fox drew 17.4 million to its Thursday night game.

CBS won the week in prime time, averaging 7.2 million viewers. … [Read more...] about Football dominates television viewing as holiday nears
