If you are wondering why low-rated cable television shows and networks not only stay alive but also manage to be profitable, it is due to the bundled cable racket that forces over a hundred million Americans to pay for dozens of channels they don't like and/or watch. For example, if you want Fox News but have to get CNN and MSNBC in the package, chances are very good that CNN and MSNBC are getting a chunk of your cable bill.
Yep, that is right. This racket has been so perfected that not only is failure rewarded, the networks can pretty much broadcast whatever they like because ratings don't matter all that much. And when you have 100 channels owned by a half-dozen or so multi-nationals, they are also pretty much boycott proof.

Satellite TV here I come!
There will be an alternate soon its called Aaero internet tv,costs 80.00 per year and you get ALL channels in the universe.
Who will you pay for internet access??? Haha
BUT a boycott will hit their bottom line $ because advertisers will not pay high dollar for a lesser audience..
Simple, just jot down every advertiser while you watch A&E and don't shop there.
You get your show, and A&E gets nothing.
To all, go ahead and watch the next season of A&E duck dynasty, buy just boycott any and all advertisers of the show. This will get you your show, and kill the money. Have your show and kill the sponsor will do the job.
They charge based on ratings. Watch the show and fatten their pockets. Duck dynasty is not the only show the corporations advertise on. Watching the show and not buying certain products won't work.
11.16, yes, it will. If advertisers aren't making money BECAUSE of who they choose to ad with, they will move. Because they have to.
