WABC in New York claims they are the most watched station in New York and in the Nation.

They also appear to be the station with the most lawsuits pending against their News Director. But they didn't mention that in the press release.  

In the release, WABC claimed that the station captured a 3.1 rating/8 share in DMA Households, Monday-Sunday Sign-On to Sign-Off, in the country's most populous market.

With each rating point representing 70,748 Tri-State area TV households, ABC7 attracts a larger audience than any other television station in the nation.

The weekday edition of "Eyewitness News at 6:00" with Bill Ritter, Liz Cho, Lee Goldberg and Ryan Field, holds a 30% advantage in DMA Households and a dominant 63% edge among Adults 25-54. This sweep marks the 165th consecutive ratings survey period that WABC-TV has finished an outright #1 in DMA Households among local M-F 6pm newscasts.

"Eyewitness News at 11:00," featuring Bill Ritter, Sade Baderinwa, Lee Goldberg and Ryan Field, continues to rank #1 in DMA Households with a 28% advantage over its closest competitor. The program also holds a solid 55% advantage over its nearest competitor among Adults 25-54.

The station also claims that it is the "most-liked" in the Tri-State area on social media, ranking #1 among broadcast television stations in Facebook Likes, Twitter followers and Instagram followers.

To which we say, who gives a shit? 

Do you own Facebook? No. Twitter? No. Instagram? No. Can you make money off those sites? No. Then who cares about them?

Send people to your website, not your social media.
