The attitude of the major networks these days reminds me of the giant US auto makers in the 70's. They dominated for so long and got complacent. Thinking that they were untouchable, and those pesky little foriegn imports aren't a threat. Well, now the big three networks are in that mode. "Oh those pesky alternative media sources, they aren't a threat to us, we don't need to change". Stand back and look at yourselves ABC, CBS and NBC, your empires are crumbling.

Only the Strong Survive, and in MSM's case, only the Smart survive.  

Winning a War is good American Patriotic news......report it -OR- be eaten by the Big Whales in the MSM ocean.

The MSM collaspe for audience share is sorta like Growing Old, it was happening at such a slow steady pace, they haven't noticed until now that the MSM is dying.   

And the Democratic Candidates refuse to appear on Fox for a Debate ?   Only the Smart will survive, and we've got to kill off a few of these MSM Talking heads before they will cowboy up.

What's the Tipping point for MSM ?  When will they reach it  ?  One at a time, or all together ?  

What good is a Free Press, if it is a False Press ?   David Foote  GoE

We've talked about this in other threads. Not because we're beating a dead horse, but because it always comes back to the same thing: they don't really care about ratings; it's all about agenda, agenda, agenda.

Ironically, and sadly for them, the networks have fallen into the same rut as the Democrats in Congress, and the educational establishment. They disregard the wider audience and the greater good because they are blinded by their own ideology. With the educators, and to some extent Congress, most people feel they can do nothing to change their ethos of idiocy. However, people can at least " tune out and turn off " the networks, which will  hurt them. Modern  "liberalism" is the scurge of the modern world. Everything it touches is seriously damaged, or destroyed altogether. However, the "liberal philosophy" has been so deeply embedded in our society over the past four decades, many truly believe that its failure is its "success". If the philosophy "succeeds", nothing else matters. And after all, none of the "elites" is ever going to be affected much by their own stupidity. They've got theirs, the hell with the ignorant masses who can so easily be fooled. Sounds a bit like Communism, ya' think?

NEVER,NEVER trust a "liberal"

They think that viewership/readership is declining because people are getting dumber. Their ideas are much too complex for the average American to understand. They choose, instead, to just keep preaching to the choir, even as it shrinks.

And why would they want to get the stupid people back, anyways? They're too stupid to understand that the socialist/liberal agenda that is the "correct" way for Americans to think, so who needs 'em?

The numbers are staring these idiot network news producers in the face and all they do is stick their head in the sand.  Roughly, net news CBS 5 mil NBC and ABC about 7 mil. These are repeat viewers each night. How many unique listeners does Rush have each week? It will be a great day when the home shopping newtork has more viewers than the perky one.
