Correction: Nielsen//NetRatings Measures Visitors, Not Streams

  • January 22, 2007
The Jan. 18 article "Networks Battling For Web Traffic On TV Sites, ABC Leads The Pack" incorrectly stated that Nielsen//NetRatings data showed that Web users had viewed more streams of TV shows on ABC.com than on Web sites of the other major networks. The Nielsen//NetRatings data cited, however, refers to the number of visitors to the sites, not the number of streams. Additionally, the data for nbc.com/video/rewind may not be a fair representation of how many streams are taking place throughout the NBC.com site, as visitors could access streams via multiple URLs. The same goes for other URLs mentioned for other network Web sites.
