Pigressive propaganda gets tedious sometimes.

I can’t imagine who can sit through it

Hotel has reruns of NCIS: New Orleans

It’s hard to even sit through those

I’ve watched maybe 10 total

If I’m lucky, there’s old Twilight Zone

And Diners Drive Ins and Dives

Even vintage Dr Who would reject those physics.

All the NCIS are trash...it's always an evil, white-supremacist/religious/conservative/gun-toting male criminal, and the damsel in the end is always saved by...anyone but.

...then the local news comes on right after that trash(at least here in Detroit)and the faces of MOST of the REAL criminals...don't look like... white-supremacist/religious/conservative males.

Broadcast television is dead. Streaming has cannibalized what remaining viewers it could.

From Calvin and Hobbes thirty years ago:

"Oh greatest of the mass media. Thank you for elevating emotion, reducing thought, and stifling imagination."

"Thank you for the artificiality of quick solutions and for the insidious manipulation of human desires for commercial purposes."

"This bowl of lukewarm tapioca represents my brain. I offer it in humble sacrifice. Bestow thy flickering light forever."

We are always looking at strategies to ensure that our broadcast business remains as strong as possible.

Yeah, I noticed if I watch a YouTube video from a nbc affiliate , at the end Lester Holt comes on, thanking you and reminding you to watch NBC nightly news

Seems that should be true of all the traditional networks. Comic books on video on HBO and Netflix etc are the big draw now.

Here’s an idea: Stop being a mouthpiece for the DemocRat party and just report the news in an unbiased way.

14 commercials in a row in prime time isn’t much fun, either.

I am convinced they do in fact know that to be true but they would rather just go out of business first.

NBC is 20,000 leagues under the sea, compared to where they used to be in, say 1987:

The internet barely existed back then. Computers did to some extent but it took another decade before they and the internet became a household norm. And from there maybe another 30 years before the networks bite the dust.

Yep, they are like the Imperial Japanese soldiers who know that they are to lose and know they have the choice to surrender but would rather die. Except NBC doesn’t have the honor of the Japanese.

Have they considered offering balanced news reporting and non-political entertainment?

If NBC was smart enough to figure that out they wouldn't be in the mess they're in...

Television, as we know it, is on its way OUT.
