Over the last few weeks, broadcast news shows have had something of a renaissance, with information-hungry viewers turning to them in record numbers amid the devastating spread of the novel coronavirus.
The ABC News program World News Tonight With David Muir has been at the top of the heap, attracting record audiences that far surpass the competition.
The show has led all of American television in viewership for three out of four weeks this month, averaging nearly 11 million total viewers each night.
