Ratings Show Americans Don’t Care About the Impeachment Trial Enough to Watch It

Yup, you have to consider that the impeachment is showing across the country in doctors offices and airports, etc.

So that probably counts as *viewing it*.

I wonder if they count it when people flip past the channel and it’s on momentarily as they do. Does that count as someone*watching* it just because they hit the channel for a few seconds?

It was a difficult decision as to whether I would watch or not. After all, re-runs of “Petticoat Junction” and “Three’s Company” were on.

I had to decide.

Do I sense a thread high-jack here.

As a manager at a major computer company, I was required every year to do a 90 minute HR presentation to my Department. I had a range of topics that HR decided were suitable for the presentation. Every year I would ask what the Dept. wanted to hear about. Every time they wanted to see the ridiculous HR video on sexual harassment. The theme was basically how innocent actions or statements can be misinterpreted.

I would show the video every year. The subsequent discussion was twofold. From the men, “How did she get THAT from what he said?”. From the women, “She needs to get grip. Deal with it. Don’t go running to management.”

My department was comprised of everything from technicians to PhD scientists. 50% men, 50% women, 0% trans as best I knew.

Why when there are test patterns, home jewelry shopping channels and turbo mop infomercials out there?

Every time I flipped over to it, it was nothing but Schifface so no.
