The presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump on September 26 drew an audience of
84 million, shattering records. It was also a first for the Internet Archive, which
made data publicly available, for free, on how TV news shows covered the debate. These data, generated by the
Duplitron, the open source tool used to generate counts of
ad airings for the
Political TV Ad Archive, also is able to track coverage of specific video clips by TV news shows.
