I figured they paid something.

Perhaps we should just be happy that we have been around for a while and have carved out decent reputations in the business. That may help us get through to “retirement.”

Like you, Connie, I watch commercials to learn from them. I’m also more likely to watch TV from an easy chair during a shows actual airtime. And the shows I like to watch are slim pickins these days. The drop in ad revenue is and will continue to affect us professionally. I just wonder where we will all end up when the evolution has peaked.

Not that people are disrespectful, but tend more to be in a mode that doesn’t extend itself towards respect; respect for what others do; respect for professionalism; respect for laws and systems. For many it’s simply a case of free not being free enough. Somebody is going to pay for it folks, so if it isn’t the advertiser subsidizing the show with million dollar media buys, eventually all we’ll be watching are $4.95 per view episodes of Pawn Stars and Ice Road Truckers.
