We won't try to minimize these numbers, or the national stupidity they point to, but we suspect the Nielsen people have reason to tout their stats, just as those MORONS who estimated hurricane damage did theirs: it keeps them in the public eye -- and good news means MORE BUCKS.
We would like to think the truth lies elsewhere. We'd just want to know where to find it. P. S. The only possible good news here (assuming these numbers are credible) is that people are skimming more -- and watching less of what they skim.
