Antena 3 holds the top spot in viewership, extending its leadership throughout the month with consistent daytime and prime-time presence. The flagship program cycle of Antena 3 News closes the month with a 19.1% audience share and an average audience of 2,242,000 viewers across the week, from Monday to Sunday. While the share slips slightly from November by seven-tenths of a point, the program remains the leader, ahead of its closest competitors by about seven percentage points. This sustained dominance reflects Antena 3’s broad appeal across different dayparts and its ability to attract a steady stream of viewers week after week.
The second place is claimed by the same News brand with an 11.3% share and an audience of 1,318,000, staying narrowly above Telecinco’s rival News at 11.1% with 1,287,000 viewers. Despite Telecinio’s strength, the network backed by Mediaset continues to pull a larger audience than public television, drawing 1,322,000 viewers in total, a margin of roughly 4,000 in favor. In daytime slots, laSexta News drops by three tenths to an average of 6.7% and 674,000 viewers, signaling competitive pressure in midday programming as audiences shift across channels.
Pedro Piqueras faces a nighttime dip
In the prime time window, Vicente Vallés maintains a commanding lead as Antena 3 News 2 posts a 19.2% share with 2,643,000 viewers. Telediario, led by Carlos Franganillo, climbs to 11.2% with 1,509,000 followers, marking a continued advantage for the public broadcaster in the late-evening lineup. For the second consecutive month, Franganillo’s edition outpaces Piqueras, underscoring a shift in audience preference during the late hours.
The second edition of Informativos Telecinco records a 8.4% share and 1,164,000 viewers, reflecting its weakest historical figures. The opening segment did not provide a noticeable lift, with the program starting around six percent and failing to sustain a strong early momentum. This suggests viewers are weighing the new format against familiar routines at night, impacting early engagement metrics.
A3 Noticias also leads on weekends
During weekend broadcasts, Antena 3 Noticias keeps a clear lead with an average share of 16.3% and 1,853,000 viewers, outperforming Televisión’s 12.5% and 1,405,000. Telecinco’s Informativos Telecinco remains in third place at 11.8% and 1,364,000, while laSexta Noticias records 6.3% with 586,000. The weekend programming demonstrates Antena 3’s sustained ability to draw large audiences across dayparts, especially during late-weekend slots where news remains a key driver of engagement.
The pinnacle of weekend viewership came from the late-evening block featuring Matías Prats and Mónica Carrillo, which achieved a remarkable 20.2% share and 2,032,000 viewers, highlighting the appeal of seasoned anchors during high-traffic viewing hours. This top performance underscores the influence of experienced newsroom talent in securing broad audiences and steady ratings growth over the weekend period.
