NBC gains amid Disney YouTube TV blackout

Disney’s dispute with Google’s YouTube TV is reshaping the TV news leaderboard. With ABC channels blacked out since Oct. 30 for roughly 10 million subscribers, ABC retitled World News Tonight and Good Morning America episodes, blunting their Nielsen counts. NBC Nightly News led adults 25–54 for the week ending Nov. 7, 929,000 to 883,000, its first such win under anchor Tom Llamas. Today also edged Good Morning America in total viewers, 2.81 million to 2.72 million. The standoff centers on price, and ABC News declined comment.
