15. Silly. The audience isn't the customer. The audience is the product.

The advertisers are the customers. So the product is shaped (customized) to earn their business, ie, their dollars.

16. as noted above, the audience isn't the customer. They don't spend any money.

The audience's attention is sold to the advertisers. As customers, they pay for the product they want.

What HRC IS, Andrea Mitchell can only play at on teevee.
It's petty and vindictive and that's it.

Sorry for this link from them.

Emails show NBC's Andrea Mitchell telling Colin Powell Trump's nomination is 'awful'

“Armitage now supporting her? Are you going to endorse? Wondering,” Mitchell asks Powell.

Powell brushes off the question and notes that Armitage has been saying this in public for a while. But then in an email chain dated June 17, Mitchell tells Powell that she thinks Republicans need to find a way to avoid nominating Trump.

“I know trump controls the convention rules committee but I keep thinking they have to find a way not to nominate him,” she tells Powell.

Powell responds by telling her he thinks Trump will get the nomination, and notes that Ryan has declared he is sticking with Trump.

“I don't see how. Even Paul Ryan in today's papers says he has problems, but is sticking with him. Trump is his own best critic right now. Be careful not to give him critics he can attack and divert attention. I assume he will get the nomination. Then the game is on,” Powell responded.

Powell’s outlook is not an optimistic one for Mitchel, who then responds: “It is awful,”

Mitchell has a major-league, undisguised hatred of Hillary, and it's on constant display. I never, ever watch her anymore.

to do with Hillary's Hubby and Mitchell/Greenspan's days of covering the White House. Plus,it is no secret Mrs. Greenspan is a Ayn Rand disciple.

She's like a skinny Candy Crowley. Remember when Crowley went after Al Gore incessantly in 2000? That's what Mitchell/Greenspan is reminding me of.
