Night TV

The late night shows on ABC, CBS and NBC are all losing viewers. The reason is that more people are watching pod casts but that is not quite right. Greg Gutfeld is a new comer to late night having started just nine years ago and he now has the largest late night audience. He lambastes everyone and every group and is totally politically incorrect. The other net works spent years leaning to the left and going after Trump not considering the fact that half the people voted for Trump. Good business tells you that you cannot insult your customers and not expect to lose some. The networks have yet to understand what is happening. Here is a news item. The networks have finally begun admitting that it is no longer what it used to be. The question is: What can it evolve into that takes into account both economic realities and the cold hard fact that viewers are no longer as engaged by broadcast TV as they used to be?
