Even though it’s still preseason, six football programs made Tunity Analytics’ Weekly National Out-of-Home Viewer Rankings this week – four preseason games and two NFL-related shows. Sportscenter, Pardon the Interruption and America’s Newsroom, all of which are regulars in our Top Ten, claimed the fifth, seventh and eighth spots, respectively.
ESPN as a whole had a great week, claiming five spots on the Top Ten. UFC 241 had a strong showing, landing the fourth spot while averaging 717,000 OOH viewers, according to Tunity Analytics.
