SAWYER SENSATIONS: 'GOOD MORNING AMERICA' PASSES 'TODAY' SHOW IN TOP 10 UPSET
Rare good news at the Magic Kingdom as ABC's GOOD MORNING AMERICA takes 9 of the nation's top 10 markets away from NBC's TODAY show!
Wednesday morning ratings show GMA passing TODAY in audience levels in all top markets.
GMA's only turbulence: a tie in San Fran and a 5% deficit to TODAY in Los Angeles. Otherwise, it's ABC's Diane Sawyer over NBC's Kaitie Couric in the America's lucrative wake-up war.
GOOD MORNING AMERICA is expanding its status as urban darling to national leader.
"There are a few regions left which fall TODAY," a DISNEY source explains. "But the trend is loud and clear."
