NBC finally has Wembanyama numbers, but the methodology matters as much as the rating.
The same race tells different stories depending on which audience method counts.
Clark has national windows and ABC numbers, but Prime still owes the harder proof.
Prime has usage numbers, but not the drop-off and friction numbers fans complain about.
The NBA can show huge reach while fans still complain about scattered viewing.
Clark matters, but the league's expanded national schedule is now its own product.
Nielsen, Adobe, Big Data, and panel-only figures cannot be treated as the same number.
Prime has reach and minutes, but not a number for fans who gave up at the gate.
