    By Andrew Dalton, Entertainment Writer

    LOS ANGELES (AP) --

    A special airing of "Black Panther" in the wake of the death of star Chadwick Boseman was a bright spot for the broadcast networks in a ratings week otherwise utterly dominated by Fox News Channel's coverage of the Republican National Convention. 

    ABC's last-minute scheduling Sunday night of the Disney and Marvel film about the African superhero drew 6.27 million viewers two days after Boseman died of colon cancer at age 43. 

    An accompanying tribute to Boseman brought nearly 5 million viewers and was fifth among broadcast shows for the week, the Nielsen company said Tuesday. 

    But the week overall belonged to Fox News, which had nine of the top 10 and 14 of the top 20 primetime shows. 

    At No. 1 was Thursday night's airing of the convention and the nomination acceptance speech of President Donald Trump, which drew 9 million viewers. Fox News' Tuesday night convention coverage was second with nearly 8 million. 

    And the channel's convention-connected airings of "Hannity" filled out the rest of the top five. 

    The RNC also gave major bumps to the nightly shows of Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham. 

    Fox News Channel was easily the most watched network, cable or broadcast, of the week with an average of 5.1 million viewers in primetime. 

    NBC was the most popular broadcast network, averaging 2.77 million viewers in primetime. ABC had 2.75 million, CBS had 2.4 million, ION Television had 1.3 million, Univision had 1.2 million Fox had 1.1 million and Telemundo had 1 million.

    Among other cable networks, MSNBC was second with 1.5 million average viewers, CNN had 1.47 million, HGTV had 1.4 million and TLC had 1.2 million.

    ABC's "World News Tonight" led the network evening news ratings race, averaging 8.7 million viewers. NBC's "Nightly News" had 7.2 million, and the "CBS Evening News" had 5.2 million.

    For the week of Aug. 24-30, the top 20 programs, their networks and viewerships:

    1. "Republican National Convention" (Thursday), Fox News, 9 million.
    2. "Republican National Convention" (Tuesday), Fox News, 7.9 million. 
    3. "Hannity" (Thursday), Fox News, 7.8 million.

    6. "Republican National Convention" (Monday), Fox News, 7 million.
    7. "Republican National Convention" (Wednesday), Fox News, 6.9 million.
    8. "Hannity" (Monday), Fox News, 6.85 million.
    9. "Tucker Carlson Tonight" (Thursday), Fox News, 6.28 million.
    10. "Black Panther," ABC, 6.27 million.
    11. "60 Minutes Presents," CBS, 6.2 million.
    12. "Tucker Carlson Tonight" (Tuesday), Fox News, 6.1 million.
    13. "Tucker Carlson Tonight" (Wednesday), Fox News, 5.9 million.
    14. "Tucker Carlson Tonight" (Monday), Fox News, 5.7 million.
    15. "America's Got Talent" (Tuesday) NBC, 5.6 million.
    16. "America's Got Talent" (Wednesday) NBC, 5 million.
    17. "Chadwick Boseman Tribute," ABC, 4.9 million.

    19. "The Ingraham Angle" (Tuesday), Fox News, 4.6 million.

    The Elements Music, and Droga5 music supervisors Mike Ladman and Mara Techam, won the Ryan Barkan Best in Show Award at the 14th annual AMP Awards for Music & Sound, taking home the trophy for the music supervision of the General Motors ad, “See You On The Road,” which reimagines the Elvis Presley classic “If I Can Dream”--reinterpreting the song’s instrumentation as steps in the automaker’s manufacturing process. The ad also took home three additional awards in the categories of Outstanding Music Supervision: Commercials or Branded Content, Outstanding Adaptation or Arrangement, and Unique Production Technique. The awards were presented at a sold-out event held at Sony Hall in New York on Wednesday evening (5/20) presided over by the AMP Awards Committee and the competition’s 2026 Show chairperson Daniel Kuypers, head of music, Omnicom Production.
