Reply #14: the numbers they are talking about are Nielsen numbers [View All]

if you're not a Nielsen household, nothing counts.

However, there is a rumor that TiVo is making our habits available to advertisers so....if you TiVo a show more advertisers might buy spots.

Since money makes the world go round, if KO is making big bucks on ads, he'll likely stay on the air.

One more point, Salon did an interview with KO last week (or so). When asked if he was getting heat to tone it down from "above" KO said just the opposite. He said his corporate masters (my words) watch the ratings and know ratings = money so they are encouraging him to be more critical of the admin.

There you go. We can do our part by getting everyone we know to watch KO.
