Contrast this with the fact that cable subscriptions are in steep decline:

The more interesting part of this is, who has cable anymore? This is completely from personal experience. But I am in my late 20s. Everyone I served with in the Navy around my age (20 to 30) had Netflix and Hulu, not DirectTV. Even now in the civilian world, I don’t find anyone under 40 with cable or satellite TV. Even a few people over 40 I know dumped conventional TV years ago and use AppleTV.

TV New ratings for Fox, CNN, and MSNBC, are they really still relevant to discourse? Would it be better to use internet rankings?

Old people who watch FoxNews, apparently.

Old people have cable. And they tend to be the most reliable voters.
