Nielsen
TV audience tracker
Nielsen refers to audience measurement data from the Nielsen Company, which tracks television viewership and media consumption.
Nielsen ratings determine a show's popularity and heavily influence advertising rates and programming decisions: The show was canceled after poor Nielsens.
The term functions as shorthand for TV ratings generally, even when other measurement systems are involved.
