Nielsen updates its Linear TV Top 10 Total Chart on Thursdays, reflecting U.S. TV viewership data from the previous week (Monday-Sunday). This market will resolve according to the number of U.S. viewers (Persons 2+ average total viewers, P2+) of the highest viewed episode of ABC World News Tonight for the Week of August 24 - August 30, as reported on the Linear TV Top 10 Total Chart. This market will resolve based on the first official estimate reported by Nielsen. Any later revisions or retractions will have no bearing on resolution. If the specified show does not appear on the final chart for the specified week, this market will resolve to the lowest bracket. If the data for the specified week is entirely unreleased by 11:59 PM ET on the second Thursday following the specified week, this market will resolve according to the lowest bracket. If the data for the specified week remains partially published (i.e. excluding certain days of the week) by that time, or if only some episodes of ABC World News Tonight appear on the Linear TV Top 10 Total Chart, this market will resolve based on the viewership data available at that point. If the reported number of viewers falls exactly between two brackets, this market will resolve to the higher range bracket. This market will resolve according to Nielsen’s P2+ viewership statistic for the specified week, as reported on the Linear TV Top 10 Total Chart, regardless of any future changes in methodology. If Nielsen ceases to publish the P2+ viewership statistic on the Linear TV Top 10 Total Chart, this market will resolve to the lowest range bracket. The resolution source for this market will be information from Nielsen, specifically their P2+ viewership statistic as reported on the Linear TV Top 10 Total Chart (see: https://www.nielsen.com/data-center/top-ten/#television).Recent weekly averages for ABC World News Tonight with David Muir have stabilized near 8.4–8.5 million total viewers, positioning the 8.5m–9m bracket as the market frontrunner at 45% implied probability. A routine news cycle featuring international developments like the Niger coup attempt and ongoing Ukraine coverage has driven modest day-to-day fluctuations rather than major spikes, consistent with the program's dominant position in the evening news slot. Occasional standout episodes, such as the 9.063 million reached earlier in August, support the secondary 10m+ and 9m–9.5m brackets at 27.5% and 27%, while lower ranges reflect the low likelihood of a quiet stretch pulling the highest episode below 8 million. Nielsen's Thursday chart update for the full week remains the key resolution catalyst.
