I find all these claims of BILLIONS of people tuning in to Live8 laughable. There's only 5-6 billion people in the world. Most of these live in third world countries and are lucky if they have a TV. I think for the "billions" claim to be true we'd have to assume that about everybody that has a TV watched this show. I know I didn't, and I don't think I was the only one.
"Most of these live in third world countries and are lucky if they have a TV."
Most third world citizens are NOT allowed to hear, see or read anything but their countries brain washing propaganda. Think Cuba, Algeria, Islamic taliban
