I have no idea and I didn't think about bots. I wonder if all networks use bots to boost their ratings in hopes of more advertising dollars. Maybe that is why Samba TV's numbers are so much lower than NBC's. Perhaps Samba knows how to discount the bots. Just a guess, I have no idea.
Prior to hearing about Samba's numbers for the Super Bowl I had never heard of Samba. The only one I knew about was Nielsen. I don't know how Samba gets their numbers but apparently they are one of the most accurate because they are what advertisers base how much they are willing to pay for a spot on whatever show.
It turns out I might have been mislead but this video: https://youtu.be/vlCnxuEARaM?si=kmlGdLH9n7UbfQND
The Digital Currency Modernization Act has a provision that is titled Anti-CBDC. However, it's not unlike Congress to name a bill or section of a bill one thing and actually mean the opposite. I'll have to read the bill.
Hmm.... Apparently I was mislead by a YouTube video (https://youtu.be/vlCnxuEARaM?si=kmlGdLH9n7UbfQND)
When you asked for sources I went back to that video. I just now looked up the Digital Currency Modernization Act. This includes anti-CBDC legislation. While I didn't read the bill (which I will later) it appears by name to ban any future attempts at CBDC.
I need to read the legislation because there have been bills, especially Democrat proposed legislation, that says it is for one thing but the text of the bill is the complete opposite. Specifically the Affordable Healthcare Act and the Inflation Reduction Act. Both bills did the opposite. Obamacare increased the cost of healthcare and decreased the quality of coverage.
Biden's Inflation Reduction Act had absolutely nothing to do with inflation except for spending trillions more dollars, which most likely had to be printed/digitized. Using money printing/digitizing as a means of borrowing money is the exact cause of inflation. It devalues the currency and that means it takes more dollars to pay for fewer goods.
The Biden administration as do all Democrats these days adhere to an economic theory that used to be laughed at but is now taken seriously. Modern Monetary Theory. It the idea that if the government needs money for whatever it wants to spend it on, then they print/digitize more. It got laughed because even early proponents of this theory knew it caused inflation. The solution they can up with was legislating the cost of goods. Which is a very good way of causing businesses to just close up shop and go home forever.
But I'm sure the Democrats will come up with another band-aid solution for that. And then another band-aid solution to fix the first solution and so on and so on.
Fox is owned by ABC. Both air first run TV shows. CW runs really crappy soap opera-like TV shows. Fox operates just like the main 3. Maybe in NYC they show reruns but in the rest of the country they have first run shows.
"Glad to see Wikipedia is of use for you, btw." What do you mean by that?
I don't give a crap about Kaepernick. He's old news and the decline in viewership of the NFL has nothing to do with Kaepernick. It is about the preaching the NFL does. They preach from the Church of Liberalism.
TPUSA's show started with Kid Rock singing one of his hits from the 90's. Perhaps it was the one you referenced. I couldn't understand everything he sang. After that song 3 other bands played and they sang more religious based songs. The last perform was Robert Ritchie and he sang about how Jesus has changed his life.
Who is Robert Ritchie? That's Kid Rock's real name. Basically the TPUSA half time show was about redemption and Robert Ritchie shedding the Kid Rock of the past.
I have no idea if he plans on going by Robert Ritchie or not and I really don't care. I am not a fan of Kid Rock or Robert Ritchie. I think it is awesome that he found God but that is about all I care about him.
"Anyone can start their own football league to compete with it"
Yes they can. Just like how all of the libs who destroyed the Boy Scouts of America could have just started their own Gay Scouts of America or whatever. But they moved in and took over and now the organization is on its last leg because all of the sponsors have pulled out.
If an alternate football organization started now, it would be a struggle. It has been tried before and failed. People have their teams and none of them play for these alternate leagues. But if the NFL keeps going down this road, eventually one of those alternate leagues is going to take football away from the NFL. I can see that happening real soon.
"if folks opt to watch one of the 28 latest Star Trek shows currently streaming on Paramount+ or Willie Aames as Bibleman on Angel Studios TV instead."
You forget something. The half time show is only 30 minutes. Football are not going to watch an hour long show and miss a half an hour of the 3rd quarter. Who's Willie Ames? I did go to the theater tonight to see Kevin James, Kim Coates, Alyson Hannigan and Jonathan Roumie star in the Angel Studios production of Solo Mio. You should see it so you can stop complaining about something you have no clue about.
