Another split decision for the evening newscasts, and perhaps further evidence that Brian Williams' SNL appearance is helping draw younger viewers. Nightly News led the way in the A25-54 demo last week, while World News with Charles Gibson squeaked out a win in total viewers. Nightly's demo performance is the widest lead over World News since the week of April 16, 2007.
