CBS 2Q earnings call on Thursday. Will CBS report the $10million+ loss on Hillary's book at their Simon and Schuster division?

Wonder what the ratings on Madame Secretary will be?

[I cannot think of a name]

“CBS may be eyeing an earnings miss (Thanks to Hillary’s book flop?)”

Well, at least there is still some GOOD news around!

Not to mention their one hour a week campaign add for Hillary entitled (Madam Secretary) Should be a real big flop but it will run until the end of November 2016 win loose or draw

It was a campaign contribution

I think the loss of several hit shows and the fact CBS Sports may be too reliant on the NFL for revenue may hurt the company in the long run. Disney--who owns ABC and ESPN--will be financially vastly more viable because of the ESPN's enormous profit from live sports (the arrival of the SEC Network has proven to be more successful than thought because ESPN got Comcast to carry the network, a huge win for ESPN), not to mention Disney's huge profits from its theme parks and the number of movie franchises Disney now owns (Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and now most of the Marvel Comics movie rights).

I’m not helping their ratings. There are only two channels I watch much of. One is the local CBS affilate, where I watch the local news in the morning. The other is the Encore Westerns channel. Wish I didn’t have to pay for all the other BS channels.

Gunsmoke reruns are the best shows on TV IMHO.
