Trump has attracted 13 million people through Comcast’s NBC and its subscription channels, MSNBC and CNBC.
The numbers could be revised later on Friday.
Television interviews were scheduled for prime time after a debate that was supposed to take place at the same time was canceled.
Trump withdrew from the debate after organizers said it would be hypothetical to reduce the risk of corona infection.
On ABC, Biden attacked Trump’s handling of the Corona virus pandemic, while Trump defended on NBC, his response to the virus and his personal behavior.
NBC was criticized for setting Trump’s date at the same time as Biden, after ABC had already set their date with the Democratic candidate, forcing voters to choose the candidate they would see live.
