CBS's 60 MINUTES Makes Top 10 for Third Time in Four Week

60 MINUTES made Nielsen's Top 10 broadcasts for the second straight week and the third time in four weeks. America's #1 news program drew 13.8 million viewers to land at #6.

The broadcast also made the Top 10 in adults 25-54, the demographic that matters most to those who advertise in news. It scored a 3.4/08 to finish tied for ninth place, according to Nielsen live-plus-same-day ratings for Oct. 18.

60 MINUTES was Sunday's #1 non-sports program.

Sunday's 60 MINUTES featured an Anderson Cooper story on how Europe is dealing with the torrent of migrants from the Middle East; a report from Bill Whitaker about the people who make the "Make-A-Wish" wishes come true; and Armen Keteyian's profile of N.Y. Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis.
