Does large volume of Bloomberg ads raise price for others? [View all]

Supply and demand?
Just asking the question. I don’t know enough about the economics of TV ads— I know number of viewers is important but there’s only so many commercials that can run per hour.

Originally I just thought “hey, all these anti trump ads he is running are helpful” but on MSNBC the consequence of the ad buy might be different. Not a lot of people watching MSNBC need to be convinced that trump is bad news.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
