GMA Network, which currently broadcasts a different programming line-up as a result of the quarantine implementation, still managed to sustain its top position as the Filipino viewers’ go-to channel for important news and superior entertainment during these times.
The latest data from Nielsen TV Audience Measurement show that for the entirety of April (with April 26 to 30 based on overnight data), GMA registered 32.1 percent average total day people audience share in the National Urban Television Audience Measurement (NUTAM) while ABS-CBN only got 28.9 percent.
