ABC surges to the top of Nielsen’s digital ranking with 11.2m unique audience
For the first time in the latest iteration of the Nielsen Digital Content Ratings, which launched in 2018, news.com.au has been unseated from the top spot, with ABC News Websites soaring to 11.190m in unique audience, an 11.3% rise month-on-month.
The jump came from 10.055m in December, which saw ABC jump to second place, a 5.56% rise from November. It’s thought the bushfire coverage from the outlet gave it a boost during what is usually a quiet period.

ABC News has nabbed the top spot in the Nielsen DCR for the first month of 2020
Who is Goyen?
Hi Jimbo,
In the text I am looking at, it says: “7News executive producer, Phil Goyen, said the news outlet is staying humble, despite its success”, and the edit history indicates it has been that way since the article went live.
I hope that clears up any confusion,

You mention “said Goyen” but don’t introduce Phil’s first name or job title
