In the manly battleground that is US network evening news, ABC has overtaken NBC in total ratings for the first time in six years.
David Muir, who's replaced Dianne Sawyer at the helm of World News Tonight, returned 8.42m viewers in the week beginning 29 September. NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams got 8.25m, and CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley attracted 6.61m.
ABC News is run by Brit James Goldston, married to the BBC's Laura Trevelyan, now hosting BBC World News America. NBC News is run by Brit Deborah Turness, ex ITN.
In cable news, CNN post-Piers-Morgan seems to be edging ahead of MSNBC, at least in total day viewers.
