To be honest, I'm not sure what to do with stats like this anymore. Viewership of the RNC was down slightly over past years, but I wonder if that isn't simply an effect of people generally watching less television than they used to. |
Yeah. Total impact is likely bigger because you can get passive impact from Facebook posts, tweets, instagrams, etc. The total reach is really hard to gauge now and I think TV numbers tell us nothing
