2. I Thought They Only Allowed Suburban Republican Families From the Midwest
Remember, Nielsen isn't looking for viewers per se,
they are looking for the ones who will believe all the advertising.

The proud. The stupid. The proud to be stupid. The Bush Voters.

4. It's Not Easy .... I did Arbitron once
, but only because I was at work, early in the AM, a call came in on the wrong line and I just said "hello" -

The guy says "I'm Andy with Arbitron, is this the lady of the house"? - Having worked in media and know the value of one Arbitron book, I said "YES I AM" - then proceeded to lie about how many people were in my house over the age of 18 - so I got 3 books.

3 books is "gold" in this business, represents thousands of people and with my three books, I chaned the ratings of the alternative station to it's highest ratings ever.
