Five-Second Delay Coming To Live TV?

Except that most of them are actually senior citizens who send hundreds of e-mails and letters apiece, as a way to give an illusion of "millions" of viewers demanding that the networks change their ways. Recently, the FCC started to pay closer attention to their tactics, and discount any complaints that they suspect was subject to "ballot stuffing".

Those darned seniors. ;)

I already understand who they are in large part, and what they do. It's neither here nor there. Anyone can use the tactics; they don't have some mythical power not available to anyone else to try to sway things to their particular view. All well and good that the FCC isn't paying those things much heed, but that's the government (and a whole other topic). If the broadcasters want to pay attention to (or disregard) any group, senior citizens with lots of stamps and envelopes or anyone else for that matter, that's their choice as a business, just as they sometimes pay attention to campaigns to save certain shows or what have you.

Amen.

Even to the part where we surely don't want this world and its important facets like an onerous, cumbersome delay to "live tv" decided by any seniors. ;)
