37,244,000 watched the Sarah Palin speech last night and Fox News reports that 19.5 million of that number were women.
As a contrast: 38,379,000 folks watched Barack Obama the previous week.
And, Obama was covered on 10 television networks and Sarah Palin ONLY on 6.
The Sarah Palin speech generated 37.2 million viewers, just 1.1 million viewers short of Barack Obama’s record-breaking speech on Day 4 of the Democratic Convention. The Palin speech was carried on only six networks while the Obama speech was carried on ten (including BET, TV One, Univision and Telemundo).
