Funny what passes for a ratings hit these days.

Liar’s testimony represented less than 4% of the American population. Compare this to:

Magnum P.I. Series Finale - “Resolutions” - 32%
Friends Series Finale - “The Last One” - 35.6%
All In The Family - “Edith’s Problem” - 40.7%
Gunsmoke: “Love Thy Neighbor” - 40.9%
The Winds Of War - “Part 7” - 41%
The Cosby Show - “Say Hello To A Good Buy” - 41.3%
Seinfeld Finale - “The Finale” - 41.3%
Bonanza - “The Pure Truth” - 41.6%
Beverly Hillbillies - “The Giant Jack Rabbit” - 44%
Thorn Birds - “Pt. III” - 43.2%
Cheers Series Finale - “One For The Road” - 45.5%
The Fugitive Series Finale - “The Judgment Part 2” - 45.9%
Roots - “Pt. VIII” - 51.1%
Dallas - “Who Done It?” - 53.3%
M*A*S*H Series Finale - “Goodbye, Farewell And Amen” - 60.2%

But from places like CNN, who barely make 0.0006% on average, I guess 3.9% is a ratings blockbuster…

And 3.8% was from the airports.

Nothing like a little "context" (your post) to show how a 3.9% rating may be a gaslighting hit, rather than something a lot of people were watching. The "media" in all of its forms is just ridiculous these days - almost nothing even comes close to the 'truth'.
