40. Fox is Now Fighting Neilson Ratings
NPR had a story this morning about a group that is fighting the new electronic devices Neilson is using for TV ratings. The group is claiming that the devices have a lower rate of successful electronic tranmission in minority households than other households. The group is in effect seeking that Neilson go back to paper books that household keeps instead of the electronic devices. NPR reported that the group is being bankrolled by Fox. Why? Because when the devices came on line, they showed a huge drop in ratings for Fox News.

(Maybe the right wingers who were Neilson families were lying in their paper ratings books about how much they were watching Fox News.)
