Democrats drew more viewers than GOP on first convention night



Michelle Obama was a bigger draw than Ann Romney in the Orlando TV market.

The first lady’s speech Tuesday night averaged 375,000 viewers on the first night of the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, N.C.

Romney’s speech last week on the first night of the Republican National Convention in Tampa drew 279,200 viewers.

Fox News Channel was the big winner last week during the GOP conclave. But Tuesday, Fox News was down while other major outlets were up.
