Yesterday, at 3:15pm EST, CBS cut away from their Senate coverage to return to their regular programing.
.......Did you get that?
Somewhere, a CBS executive looked at the numbers and said, "We're not getting any eyeballs out there. Aw, to h--- with it. Put Dr. Phil back on!"
Stick a fork in it. It's done.
It also is not going well for them. This whole thing is an epic, unmitigated disaster for the Democrats!!
The Impeachment Show is on TV???
The ‘Rats shoulda hired Dr. Phil as a Manager.
Most people following every minute of this sham are probably lefties. And Lefties are going to tune into MSNBC.
No reason for CBS to waste time on this nonsense.
That line about news purists is a load of crap.
If 20 other networks are showing the trial, you only have a very small piece of the pie to gain by showing it.
However, if you show your programming, you stand the chance of not only gaining your regular viewers, but also some of those who don’t want to see the trial.
Don’t give me this civic responsibility garbage. There’s no reason the trial needs to be on half of the channels on the dial
This isn’t 1974. Anyone who wants to watch has dozens of options. CBS/NBC/ABC main broadcast channels aren’t the only TV citizens have at their disposal.
Conversely, people who don’t want to watch it have other options besides what the Big 3 (outdated term, I know) shove down our throats. Streaming and 57 channels of cable (with nothing on.)
Only absolutely confused individuals would watch this pathetic charade of putrid clowns. Hopefully, the networks will carry it all, lose a lot of money and make their odd-shaped-headed viewers mad.
What if they threw an impeachment and nobody came!
Shampeachment by the Sore Loser Dims not going to pull good ratings on the networks. It’s boring TV, and waste of time of our elected officials. But like catnip to The Swamp.
We are so conditioned to TV and holidays.
Many decisions by Dems were made by “Will we miss the Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Years days off?” “Will the work days in January hurt the Dem Senators who want to go out and campaign?” And most important: “How will I look on TV. Am I in prime time slot? Which speeches will be in time for news hour soundbites? What are the latest TV ratings and opinion polls showing?”
And these are key factors in a project to slander and frame a sitting President elected legally but being railroaded into impeachment.
TV and days off for vacation!
Watchers of The Young and The Restless are....restless. Not good for SeeBS.
Convenient excuse for CBS to show ShiffHole fabricate for 15 minutes, and then cut away before Team Trump debunks his lies.
Amen to that.
ABC is Disney
NBC is Comcast
Two malicious media monsters.
CBS is likely concerned about revenue. The other two are focused on the destruction of our Constitution, Country.
And by not showing the fiasco, the network can leave the ignorant believing this is a serious historical event, not the ridiculous clown show that it really is.
No, that's just the fallout from everyone pizzing on his grave.
“Uncle Walter is crying,” tweeted New York Times reporter Jim Rutenberg, referencing the late, legendary CBS News anchor Walter Cronkite.”
Another Fraud.
The difference is that Uncle Fraud was able to pull off an impeachment. Trump is going to beat them like a drum in November. We will impeach the house democrats for putting the country through hell for 4 years.
