Nielsen revises Super Bowl final rating to 125.6 million viewers
NEW YORK (AP) --- The average viewer numbers for the Super Bowl increased to
125.6 million after Nielsen released its final viewer figures on Thursday for
the Feb. 8 game.
It was a 700,000 increase from the original number of 124.9 million, which was
released on Feb. 10.
Nielsen attributed the update to a Big Data provider not properly collecting
data from its devices on Feb. 8. Nielsen began using its Big Data + Panel
methodology for all events last September with the start of the current
television season.
Seattle's 29-13 victory over New England was on NBC, Peacock, Telemundo, NBC
Sports Digital, and NFL+.
That fell short of the 127.7 million U.S. viewers that tuned in for
Philadelphia's 40-22 victory over Kansas City last year on Fox.
