When you look at the ratings for Jimmy Kimmel's show (and all the others), the numbers are horrible.
Jimmy only gets 1.5 million average viewers, and only 200,000 viewers in the key 18-49 demo. Which means most of his audience are senior citizens. But even then, it's like only 1% of all seniors in the country are watching the show. And in the 18-49 demo, 200,000 people is like 0.2% of that demo. And yet the MSM pumps these people relentlessly, even though nobody watches them.
It's a joke.
The real purpose of these shows isn't entertainment anymore, and it certainly isn't comedy. Furthermore, the networks don't seem to care. The primary purpose of these shows seems to be propaganda. And even if noone is tuning in, these absolutely talentless hacks do serve a purpose, by killing off a medium that used to be a thorn in the side of the Establishment, even if only a minor one. No more.
