Absolutely there is.
It's just a matter of 3 things.
1-Are they willing to break away from their ideology and propaganda?
2-Does ABC actually want to make money?
3-Is ABC willing to break away from their ideology and propaganda to make money?
Talk radio and Fox news has proven that conservatism SELLS and sells big.
The View is nothing but liberal b!t@#e$ spewing stupidity and bile.
Change the people and the ideology to conservatism and you'd see a ratings change.
Liberal talk radio, even in liberal strongholds ALWAYS fails, without OUTSIDE propping up. Meanwhile conservative programs ALWAYS beat out their liberal rivals in the same markets in the same time slots.
Fox news built a station around "somewhat" conservative principles and kicks all the other cable news programs COMBINED.
If Fox were on free broadcast tv, in short order it would also trump ABCCBSNBC...combined.
We've seen it time and again in movie theaters. Liberal based war movies bomb. Conservative based war movies are record setters.
Liberal religious movies or programs bomb. Conservative religious movies set records.
Remember all the attacks on Passion Of The Christ, BEFORE it even came out? What did it do at the box office.
Look at Hollywoods latest fiasco of Noah. Then compare it to a virtually non existent budget flick of God Is Not Dead.
The View could be saved, but it would require ABC to commit blasphemy from their religion.
Spot on mountn man. Even in the epicenter of the land of the fruits & nuts, the San Francisco Bay Area, conservative talk radio thrives. Many moons ago the morning rag used to run a poll/contest for the best show. Every year, without fail, the great Lee Rodgers would crush the competition. They had to physically show up at the station and present the trophy. Finally, after so many consecutive years of winning, the SF Chronicle ceased running the contest.
