Exactly. I don't watch any of those shows. I vote solidly blue. TV "news" is nothing but wall to wall horse hockey. The damn commercials for prescription drugs are infuriating! I'm surprised any one watches that crap at all. No one should get caught up in "ratings". In fact, I treat "ratings" like the Grammy awards. When someone wins a Grammy, it basically tells me "oh, so that's the music i SHOULDN'T listen to."
