President Joe Biden’s first post-debate interview earned a sizable audience Friday night as 8.5 million people saw at least part of his 22-minute conversation with ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos.
The network won the 8 p.m. time slot. CBS’s Lingo came in second, with 2.1 million viewers, and Fox’s WWE SmackDown was third, with 2 million watching. The interview also scored the best viewership for an ABC News program unrelated to either elections or debates since the network’s 2018 interview with former FBI Director James Comey, which scored 9.8 million viewers on a Sunday night.
