WABC-TV, ABC's flagship outlet in New York, boasted Thursday that it now
attracts more viewers than any other television station in the country. Despite
the fact that Fox won the May sweeps nationally and CBS came in second, the
ABC-owned station said that its overall ratings were 50 percent greater than
its nearest competitor. And while NBC Nightly News With Brian Williams
continues to edge out ABC World News With Charles Gibson in the
national ratings, the Gibson newscast in New York garners more viewers than
Williams's and the CBS Evening New With Katie Couric combined.
