There's much less manual "polling" done in the old sense of the word on
TV viewership. The fact that you no longer have cable is taken into
account, and would have no impact on the ratings of cable shows.



Sure it does harry. In another instance, when somebody has exhausted
their unemployment insurance, they are dropped from the statistics.

So the headlines read.

"Unemployment is Down!"


makes sense.

Ratings for the most part are based upon sets in use, and within that
number, sets tuned to particular programs. You're no longer among the
"counted" for the cable stations.

Tim! If you're going to talk to Krause, don't leave out the best part
of his post, to wit: "... but I do recall several times your good
buddy Herring saying he was a fan of Beck's. Well, there's no question
the two of them go together like tea and crumpets. It's a good thing
to associate Beck and that piece of **** Herring."

I don't recall ever saying I was a fan of Beck's, do you? Sounds like
more lies to me.

Probably why I don't respond to the guy more than once a month.

No dis-service to me. Heck, it was Harry's beautiful prose that got
trimmed.
