I wonder though, if that doesn’t just cause them to pander more to those that do watch. It’s like voters. Not voting makes them focus on those that do reliably.
I think it would be different if low viewership could make a channel go away, but they’re not going to for a while.

TV ratings are all about demographics. They need age and income brackets to show up in their databases.

Those that do watch may not be sufficient in those categories that bring in the higher end advertisers and thus the money they would like to charge for their ads.

Think of Rush Limbaugh and others. Do you think the radio stations are happy with some of the advertisers they lost as compared to the advertisers that remain?
