‘It was a SHAMBLES’: Nine’s dire Perth debate figures

0

The Nine Network’s leaders’ debate descended into a shambles — but nationally 641,000 viewers tuned in.

However, viewers in Perth were clearly turned off by Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese slugging it out, with a paltry 39,000 viewers bothering to watch.

It was crushed by 7NEWS Perth, which attracted 143,000 viewers — more than three times the viewers who watched the great debate — and topped Sunday’s ratings.

The leaders’ debate finished a miserable 12th in the ratings in WA, even being beaten out by Nine’s own advertorial Our State On A Plate, which pulled in 40,000 eyeballs.

Sydney was the debate’s best market, where 253,000 people watched it, while 206,000 Melburnians tuned in.

But it quickly lost momentum from there, with only 94,000 people switching it on in Brisbane and 50,000 in Adelaide.

7NEWS was the best rating program across the nation with a massive 879,000 viewers, with The Voice also doing well with 766,000 eyeballs.
