Does anyone have any numbers re: how many people watched Obama's speech last night?

1. about 5 1/2 million on network TV. That doesn't count cable.

At 8 p.m. Fox was first with a 2.7 for “Dance,” while NBC and ABC tied for second at 1.8 for President Obama’s address. Univision and CW tied for fourth at 1.4, Univision for “El Nombre del Amor” and CW for the first half of “Model,” with CBS sixth with a 1.2 for Obama.



As a reminder, all ratings are based on live-plus-same-day DVR playback. Seven-day DVR data won’t be available for several weeks. Thirty-two percent of Nielsen households have DVRs.

That must include cable networks.
