NBC's Clinton-Trump Forum Seen By 10.8 Million Viewers

[Democat]

A primer for the upcoming presidential debates, both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump sat down (individually) with Matt Lauer. The hour, which has prompted heavy criticism for the Today host's performance, was a ratings victory. Fast national returns from Nielsen reported 10.8 million viewers, making it the most watched Big Four telecast of the night. It was also nearly the top-rated, averaging just shy of America's Got Talent, with a 1.8 rating among adults 18-49.
