Stephen Colbert can finally claim complete bragging rights. For the first time, Mr. Colbert’s “Late Show” on CBS has drawn a bigger Nielsen rating point among young adult viewers than any other late-night talk show.

But per Nielsen data released Tuesday, Late Show is averaging 658,000 adult viewers under 50 in the TV season to date, just barely ahead of Tonight (656,000 or 657,000 viewers, depending on which network you ask).
