What are your thoughts?
Come on!! You can't have your cake and eat it.

If Channel 10 complain that it is all about ratings, then they want the largest number of people to watch their programs, so their advertisers get the biggest bang for their buck. Obviously!!

So, if as you say, "they will be showing stupid shows and sports that hardly anyone watches.", then their ratings will be down, (because hardly anyone watches them) and the advertisers will be up in arms. What business in their right minds would do that?

One thing I would agree on, they really DO care about ratings. Without good ratings, free to air commercial channels would not exist. Stands to reason........
