“Shareholders and advertisers”
Wrong.
As long as they have viewers/readers they will have the other two. And without viewers/readers they have nothing.
They have a considerable audience right now.
Actually im right, or havent you noticed that these stations still have plenty of advertisers even with dwindling viewership? Read post 22. Viewership is irrelevant. Advertisers spread their $$ across many platforms owned by these giant media corporations.
