Continuing on the subject of self-referential media coverage: read any article in
MediaWeek and you'll find lots of high MadAve muckymucks who spend lots of ad dollars financing lots of junk on the tube blathering incessantly about this program and that and this demo and that share and this time slot and that strategy who together probably don't watch more than ONE HOUR A WEEK. This is precisely the kind of intentional disconnect, the aggressively willful ignorance, that allows big business to sponsor any TV program without fear of failure.
