On a separate note (or possibly related), I just couldn't get into this show. I love Stewart and watched daily show for years. I found the problem with... Problem was that it had a fear that the content wasn't good enough to stand on it's own so there was this constant barrage of quips that frequently fell flat. Maybe the show got better over time (I only caught the first 3 or 4 episodes).
Same thing happened to me. I wonder if these articles are just ignoring the ratings.
Which ratings do think we should use that is not manipulated these days? Apple's own rating? IMDB? Any others?
For someone going after state actors like China, they could drop them overnight, or trickle it to go under the radar.
ratings… geez, next you're gonna say we should trust ecommerce ratings for online purchases.
