When will we know if the ratings for ABC News have dropped?

[Quixote1818]

I have a feeling they are going to take a pretty big hit after the debate.

1. who the hell watches them, anyway?

[FrenchieCat]

2. Who?

[Atman]

3. I heard the ratings for "the debate" were the highest among all the debates.

But then...ABC is a BROADCAST network, the others were all held on cable networks, which already attract far fewer viewers. But ABC seems to be touting their ratings success as some sort of vindication.

4. When will we know how much Obama fundraising surged as a result of the ABC BS?

The villagers are angry!

5. I wouldn't count on it.

There's a new episode of LOST next week. As this is just about the only thing I watch on network television, it won't drop because of me.

6. I shall be boycotting Lost

and buying the season on DVD

7. You are a more patient person than I.

However, I have to point out to you that when you buy that DVD, you will be buying it from ABC.

9. True

However their channel is now blocked and I don't really feel like unblocking it.

12. I don't blame you.

But maybe for just one hour? Next Thursday? I am beside myself with anticipation. I love that show.

[AllentownJake]

13. So do I

15. You made me laugh out loud!

8. Don't forget to boycott Disney.

They're the parent company, who gave the order for this shit.

No more Disney channel.

No more Disney toys.

No more Disneyland or Disneyworld.

Make them bleed money.

10. Boycotts: a great way to make you feel like you are actually doing something.

They are a good way for an individual not to feel powerless, or to feel good about doing something by not doing something. It is the Liberal thing to do and it is often our reaction to things done by businesses that we do not like.

Yes, those evil entities that merit boycotting who may also likely have thousands of ordinary people working for them who are just trying to struggle through their lives, working to make ends meet, caring for their families, trying to pay their bills--you know, living their lives of quiet desperation. But we know what's best for them in trying to hurt their employer with a boycott because they did something we don't like. That's the real beauty of a local boycott because you might get to hurt that neighbor you don't like. Some nice ones might be impacted too, but you have to break a few eggs.

Pity they cannot appreciate our noble intentions, although if they check our list I am sure they will find something they could boycott with impunity also (there is an official Liberal Boycott List, is there not?). Maybe they could boycott boycotts. It would make them feel good.
