During the week of March 22, American Idol once again topped the TV charts in New York City. We weren’t alone. Almost all of the major markets in the U.S. were topped by either American Idol (New York, L.A., Boston, Atlanta, Phoenix etc.) or by Dancing With the Stars (Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, Detroit, Tampa Bay, etc.).
One exception was D.C.
So what were Washingtonians so busy watching?
