Question: Do online viewings of new TV episodes get factored into Nielsen ratings!?
now that a lot of shows are being watched online instead of on TVs, do those viewings count towards ratings!?
I'd think that they would, because they're actually probably able to get a much more statistically accurate measure of the total online viewings than they're able to get from the Nielsens, which are just based on a survey of households!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I'm pretty sure they do not take online viewing into account yet!. They have only just started accounting for DVR viewings!. There are a lot of people out there lobbying to have this changed though!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
