What I don't understand is- why is he still on air?
Any TV show in the US that pulls in such retched numbers would've been cancelled a long time ago.
What's the reason for this? Is it because they are cable stations?
Well, I think I found the answer to my own question-
If you are wondering why low-rated cable television shows and networks not only stay alive but also manage to be profitable, it is due to the bundled cable racket that forces over a hundred million Americans to pay for dozens of channels they don't like and/or watch.
This racket has been so perfected that not only is failure rewarded, the networks can pretty much broadcast whatever they like because ratings don't matter all that much. And when you have 100 channels owned by a half-dozen or so multi-nationals, they are also pretty much boycott proof.
It is a simple and sad fact that America is already not-watching CNN, MSNBC, Jon Stewart, and others, but they still have an impact because Big Entertainment makes billions from bundled cable and can therefore afford to keep them on the air. The left-wing monopoly on our culture is subsidized not by popular acclaim but by bundled cable.
Piers Morgan, the tabloid editor turned US television star, has said the inspiration for his vehement anti-gun campaigning was the grumpy hero of Aaron Sorkin’s television programme, The Newsroom.
In an interview in Saturday’s Weekend magazine, Morgan said he decided to make gun control a more central focus of the CNN talkshow he took over in 2011 after watching Jeff Daniels’s character, Will McEvoy, making a frustrated outburst about passionless television reporting in the first episode of The Newsroom.
“I had been talking about the guns thing from almost the moment I’d come on air,” the former Daily Mirror editor told the Guardian. “Then, after Aurora, the movie theatre massacre, came Sandy Hook. I was incredibly, embeddedly passionate and angry and emotional about it. You can’t not be.”
There’s just one problem with this: it’s not real. President Obama actually made a joke about Aaron Sorkin and how the MSM would love for Obama to act more like Sorkin’s characters
he's a paid CIA media shill whose agenda includes ridiculing and discrediting Americans who dare question the military industrial complex.
His budget is well-funded, and always will be.
