I think you have it all wrong. The crappy local dj's diserve to loose there jobs. If the local stations don't get any negative feedback, if the public doesn't give two fucks, who cares? I keep falling back to the line from Other Peoples Money. I'm sure that the last company to make buggy whips made the best damn buggy whips money could buy" But the point is they're not needed anymore! So screw the DJ's and anyone else who can't innovate.
They don't want just viewers they want people who will watch the commercials too. I would tend to think that most people who watch recorded shows skip the commercials. Not something networks want.
