As news was coming out about Brown University shooting, CBS broke away from local coverage to air Town Hall with Erica Kirk.
Seemed highly tone deaf.

(839 posts)Will turn CBS into another Bill Maher type of program. Its likely why Bill was summoned to meet the Fuhrer after he returned. I actually wouldnt be surprised to see many who bent the knee show up at CBS regularly.

(2,157 posts)They only have two assets now:
1) Sports/Olympics programming
2) habits of older Americans (like over 70) to still watch the Milquetoast evening news.
And the sports programming is going away to Amazon, Youtube, Google and the leagues' own streaming networks. I would not be surprised if, by the next summer Olympics, more than half the coverage is on streaming services and not the networks.
Of course, the Ellisons also own some streaming, but that is like "owning the Internet". It is hard to get more than a 0,001% share. If you put all of Meta's channels together, it is about 7% of Internet traffic, but that is not like a traditional network. There is no central programming, only central algorithms to bias the ads you see.
The biggest podcast (Joe Rogan) is way less than 1% of podcast traffic.
Broadcasting is dead. The world is narrowcasting now.
