Excerpt from an article in today’s a.m. paper:

“Nielsen is set to begin counting viewers who watch TV via streaming services "Hulu" and "YouTube TV" in its rating….This inclusion of the web-based services, which Nielsen announced Tuesday, is meant to keep up with how TV-watching habits have changed….”
