El Partido de la Copa Mundial de Suecia vs. Paraguay fue la Transmisión Más Vista en su Horario
New York, NY -- In a remarkable ratings development, New York’s Univision TV station, Univision 41 (WXTV), the city’s premier Spanish-language TV station, has scored a whopping goal with World Cup Soccer. Yesterday’s (Thursday, June 15, 2006) afternoon match between the national teams of Sweden and Paraguay was the top rated program in its time period on New York TV, regardless of language, from 2:30 pm to 5 pm in all three adult audience categories as well as in total viewers. The World Cup match even blew away the formidable ABC daytime schedule on WABC-TV Channel 7, the dominant daytime program lineup in the New York TV market.
The Sweden vs. Paraguay World Cup match was watched by 353,000 New York TV viewers on Univision 41 (WXTV), enough to beat the 320,000 who watched second place WABC/7 during the same time period, according to Nielsen Station Index (NSI) Local People Meter (LPM) ratings.
The World Cup on Univision also won the key adult demographic audience categories; persons aged 18 to 34, 18 to 49, and 25 to 54. 179,000 New York TV viewers aged 18 to 34 watched the match. Univision’s companion Spanish-language TV network, TeleFutura, placed second in the 2:30 pm to 5 pm time period with 61,000 viewers for WFUT/68 and WFTY/67 (a New York station and a Smithtown, Long Island, repeater).
