Queen Elizabeth’s jubilee celebration takes a ratings bow

Associated Press  

LOS ANGELES — The U.S. split from Great Britain is history, but the monarchy still has a hold on its former colony’s heart. The first two games of the Golden State Warriors-Boston Celtics NBA finals topped the ratings, but viewers also had time for a special prime-time episode of “The Price Is Right” honoring first responders. ABC’s “World News Tonight” won the evening news competition with an average of 7.2 million viewers. NBC’s “Nightly News” had 6.1 million and the “CBS Evening News” tallied 4.3 million. “Jimmy Kimmel Live: NBA Finals Game Night,” ABC, 3.11 million.
