Summertime, and the ratings are puny -- most notably on Sunday.
The day's highest-rated program, Belo8's 10 p.m. newscast, drew a hardly earth-shaking 147,560 homes in edging NBC5's late night news (133,280 homes), Sunday's second most-watched program.
Belo8 also had Saturday's highest-rated attraction, with its 10 p.m. newscast reeling in 185,640 homes.
Friday's biggest draw was a newscast, too, this time at the network level. ABC's World News had 168,980 homes, crunching the runnerup NBC Nightly News (88,060 homes), which barely outdrew the CBS Evening News (83,300 homes).
In the local news derby, everyone except CBS11 feasted at least once.
Belo8 won at 10 p.m. in total homes, but NBC5 struck back with a victory among 25-to-54-year-olds, the main advertiser target audience for news programming.
Fox4 won in both measurements at 6 a.m., where it's clearly the station to beat again after a prolonged slump earlier this year.
Belo8 again dominated the 5 and 6 p.m. Nielsens, winning across the board.
