CBS News' FACE THE NATION was the #1 Sunday morning public affairs program with 3.69 million viewers on Feb. 26, according to Nielsen live plus same day ratings. (Note: FACE THE NATION's second half-hour was broadcast contiguously across 80.6% of the CBS affiliates.) Television year-to-date, FACE THE NATION is averaging 3.91 million viewers and 0.8/04 in adults 25-54.

The Feb. 26 broadcast opened with an interview with John Brennan, the former director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Dickerson then moderated a focus group with Richmond, Va., area residents reflecting on President Trump, the country and politics. Next Dickerson spoke with CBS News national security correspondent David Martin to get an update on the war on ISIS, followed by an interview with Gov. John Kasich (R-Ohio). The political roundtable featured The Federalist's Ben Domenech; Vox.com's Ezra Klein; Lanhee Chen, research fellow at the Hoover Institution; and The Atlantic's Molly Ball.

Mary Hager is the executive producer of the Emmy award-winning FACE THE NATION, one of the longest-running news programs in the history of television.
