Then you can get a little added thrill, lying to a pollster.
There is no way they know whether your set is even on, let alone what you are watching, unlike the UK (where they drive around in vans with RDF gear tracking your IF stage leakage to see if you watch BBC without paying your telly tax, but that's OT).
I did something like that the other night.

I do that all the time. I've been known to lie about my preferences of breakfast cerals.

I don't think you're correct on that, the part where the US is unlike the UK. My understanding is the cable companies have been catching signal theives for years with the IF stage detection trucks.
“Why not watch, anyway”
Reasons why not:
1. My blood pressure.
2. I do not give liars, rogues and Marxists the benefit of my time.
3. Its better the networks know many did not watch; they should instead be reporting Obama’s Marxist connections that they hide.
“There is no way they know whether your set is even on”
It is not just about you, it is connecting you in the same event to as many others as you can connect to, which will, in a chain of no more than six subsequent connections, connect to a house that IS/WILL BE part of the TV ratings process.
Put your own petty night-time needs aside and do something useful; something that if joined by enough person-to-person connections will be meaningful.

Because we want him to have REALLY LOW ratings. I want his lying,deceiving self to flop and it be publicly known, just like oliver stone in the movie “W”.
