For all the buzz cable news gets, it's worth mentioning that few people actually watch it. Take a look at Wednesday's viewers in the "demo" most coveted by advertisers: those in the 25-54 age group. These are in the thousands, meaning that at 4pm: 199,000 people in that group were watching Neil Cavuto on Fox, 141,000 were watching Headline News, 124,000 were watching Martin Bashir on MSNBC and 61,000 were watching Jake Tapper on CNN. Even in prime time, only a few hundred thousand in the demo are watching. It's a nation of 320 million people, folks.

I found this pretty funny and thought you guys might want to look at it It's great knowing you're not the only one sometimes.

Internet.

That's why they're trying to kill Netflix and Hulu   Why pay $100 a month for cable and Internet when you can pay ~$65 a month for Internet and video services.  It's the natural order; a service becomes obsolete (TV) and those with a huge stake in it bitch and whine about profits.
