According to the introductory ratings of this year’s ceremony of Oscar Awards, the nation's biggest markets have new swept down to seven percent ratings in comparison to the last years ratings.
Representatives, The Nielsen Co. claimed the telecast of Academy Awards held this Sunday had a cumulative rating of 24.6 along with a 37 share in the nation's 56 largest markets. Whereas on the other hand, while relating it with the count of last year's show, it had almost 26.5 rating with 40 shares. Nielsen was not able to provide a definite approximation of the amount of audience of this year’s show though it was assumed to be calculated by Monday. However, still in comparison with last year's show, the ceremony was totally watched by a total of 41.7 million people around the globe.

Nielsen also informed that even though admittedly the overall downfall in the ratings, the audience bracket of 18-49 year old demographic is only tilted by slight 2 percent only. He also boasted that in advance Oscars had encouraged younger actors like James Franco and Anne Hathaway as the hosts of the ceremony in order to appeal a younger audience beforehand.
