Another publicist tests her connections: She screams that CABLE TV IS BETTER THAN EVER, but you have to work eighteen paragraphs down to find this cleverly-buried nugget:

But, it should be said, a hit on cable is not exactly the same as a hit on a broadcast network.

"The cable companies have the luxury of trying to appeal to a niche audience," says Mr. Newman, "where a 1 or 1.2 rating can be considered a success. That's not the network business."


In short, hardly anyone's watching this genius. But what's a little obfuscation when we're writing that resume?

I HATE NEWS HACKS!!!!!
