Nine News Melbourne is claiming victory in the 2024 ratings year based on weeks won.
As we near the end of the 22nd week in the 40-week official ratings calendar, Nine News has claimed all 22 weeks based on average weekly audience measurements – the first time Melbourne has secured the top spot since 2021.
It follows Nine boldly switching anchors to the duo of Alicia Loxley and Tom Steinfort earlier this year, while Peter Hitchener is also leading in weekend results.
Hugh Nailon, Director of 9News Melbourne, said: “Reclaiming the ratings crown in Melbourne is a testament to the relentless efforts of everyone in our talented newsroom. With Alicia Loxley and Tom Steinfort hosting Monday to Friday and Peter Hitchener hosting weekends, we offer unparalleled dynamism and experience across the seven days. We are honoured by the trust our viewers place in us and remain committed to delivering news that is both relevant and impactful. This achievement motivates us to keep pushing the boundaries of news reporting and to serve our community with the highest standards of journalism.”
