Snowboarders White, Kim boost NBC to weekly ratings win
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The aerial wizardry of snowboarders Shaun White and Chloe Kim lifted the Winter Olympics and NBC to a weekly ratings victory.
According to the Nielsen company Wednesday, White's gold-medal comeback in the halfpipe gave NBC last week's most-watched night in prime-time.
Kim's unprecedented combination of spins for a woman in competition captured gold for her and delivered almost as many viewers as watched the night of White's competition.
Altogether, Olympic broadcasts from Pyeongchang, South Korea, claimed seven of the top 10 slots for the week of Feb. 12-18.
CBS' "60 Minutes," which included Oprah Winfrey's second roundtable with Michigan voters, including supporters and opponents of President Donald Trump, was No. 8.
