WWE puts last week's low Raw rating 'into perspective' for us and more
On Tuesday, June 3, 2008 at 6:47 PM EST WWE.com has an article at this link in response to some of the wrestling media reporting on the drop in ratings for last week's Memorial Day-edition of Monday Night Raw to a 2.9 (down from a 3.2 the previous week) and how they are "putting it into perspective."
WWE's website noted, "Even with a lower than usual rating, on Memorial Day, Raw was the #1 regularly scheduled cable program in primetime among households. Raw also was the #1 program on all primetime television among Persons 12-17 and the #2 television program among Males 12-17, Males 12-34, Males 18-34 and Persons 12-34. With the unprecedented interest in McMahon’s Million Dollar Mania, we expect Raw to continue to drive ratings that are better than the rest on cable during the summer."
