Among the network morning shows, NBC’s “Today” has grown roots at the No. 1 spot in the ratings – but according to the Wall Street Journal, the perennial second place operation at ABC is steadily gaining ground.
The “Today” show earlier this year celebrated its 800th week in the top ratings spot. During last month’s fall season premiere week, “Good Morning America,” with co-anchors Robin Roberts and George Stephanopolous, inched to within a daily average of 397,000 viewers of “Today,” according to the Journal.
