Koppel’s Sign-Off Beats Letterman

Ted Koppel‘s farewell turn as the anchor of Nightline “made ABC a comfortable No. 2 in the 11:35 p.m. slot for Tuesday night,” The Post Chronicle says.

“Tuesday’s edition of Nightline averaged a 4.4 rating/10 share, according to metered-market household ratings data released by Nielsen Media Research. That put it behind NBC’s The Tonight Show With Jay Leno (5.0/12) but well ahead of CBS’ Late Show With David Letterman (3.1/8).”
