How can it be possible that an organization whose sole purpose is to make money by supplying consumers with what they want no longer be paying attention to what the consumers want?
remember, TV stations sell YOU the AUDIENCE to their advertisers. When they sell "air time" to advertisers, they claim that they can guarantee Y amount of eyes watching an add spot for X amount of dollars. (Y generally depends on the time of day, popularity of the program running at that time, etc...)
