Once your actual vote was no longer necessary for elections, your viewership on television is also no longer important. The state now runs the media and the state now concludes elections.

That makes no sense.

Viewers from the right won't stop voting as they used to, just because their TV station went the other way. If there were 50 million viewers watched FOX and voted the same way as the FOX hosts/contributors/pundits, those viewers will continue voting to the right in the same numbers. TV doesn't determine who the conservatives/republicans will vote for. In fact, it's the other way, where TV viewership and ratings are determined by how many viewers from all sides tune in.

If TV stops working to get viewers and revenue, then, there is no purpose for the TV station's existence.
