We were a neilson family once... once.

It was fun.

That was 15 years ago, and they’ve never asked us again...

Does this mean “Longmire” will be reinstated?

Alf has been hacking the Nielsen rating computers again!

I love how they’re pretending a .05 error doesn’t matter. It didn’t when The Cosby Show got a 40.0. It matters a lot when plenty of shows are getting a 1.1 and a .05 difference could get them renewed — or cancelled.

Are some Advertisers owed a refund? Should others be billed additionally?

Stole my thunder out of the gate.

What if nobody really was watching Modern Family?

I don’t understand why they can’t use cable company data. Surely the cable companies can tell who is watching what and when/

With ad rates being predicated upon a stipulated audience that didn’t actually exist, will there be refunds?

Sheesh, what simpletons.

I bet ABC got all the unidentified viewers, because ABC is alphabetically at the top of the network list.

I mean, they don’t know about Excel formulas or null values in SQL? Or auditing by another party for accuracy via a reconciliation process?

I’m waiting for the argument that anyone should be able to vote in Nielsen whether they register or not, and whether they show their ID or not.

CNN really had 10 viewers and not 5 as previously reported.

The cable and ISP companies and satellite companies know exactly what shows are on. Why do they need Nielsen?

My last fulltime job, before I retired, was with Nielsen, except I wasn't in the TV ratings outfit.

I did work a lot with Dave Poltrack (mentioned in the article, a big CBS exec)... I had a lot of respect for the guy.

Who noticed? TV ratings these days are useless.
