Currently, viewership ratings for domestic television programs are independently calculated by the New Vision company, a subsidiary of the state-owned authoritative third-party organization.
While the general public or media outlets must wait until the following day to view a program's ratings on the official New Vision website—where detailed rankings are posted, making the highs and lows clear at a glance—television stations operate differently. All state-owned stations have access to specialized channels that provide them with real-time viewership data from the company.
Because New Vision leverages the vast resources of the broadcasting administration to aggregate data from digital television terminals and authorized online streaming platforms, its authority is unquestionable, despite the unavoidable presence of slight delays.
