I’ve heard it’s the opposite...CNN pays for being on their screens.

Interesting. Let’s follow that money and all chip in.
Good. In which case, CNN is just throwing money away.
They should disallow these paid displays from the ratings since few people watch.
Peel Remote app. I’ve used it to get away from CNN in medical office waiting rooms, the local senior citizen center, etc. Great fun.
Six of those I never watch, ever.
On the other hand, I love it when I go into our local diner and see almost always Fox News playing on all their TV’s......
Cable News Ratings are collected and reported by the Nielsen organization.
From a discussion of the limitations of Nielsen ratings:
A related criticism of the Nielsen ratings system is its lack of a system for measuring television audiences in environments outside the home, such as college dormitories, transport terminals, bars, jails and other public places where television is frequently viewed, often by large numbers of people in a common setting.
Airport monitors are not counted in the Neilsen ratings. The internet, where not everything that you read is so.
Nassau airport had OAN on all the tvs.
Heres what needs to be discovered.
Is cnn airport included in the overall cnn ratings? If so, how, how would it be factored in?
Just asked this, was wondering how they would factor it in. Good that they don’t.
so w/o the AP they may actually have 5%....
