Olympics Opening Ceremony Ratings Are A Bust In The U.S.

Axios: Olympics opening ceremony ratings fall to 33-year low 

Ratings for the Olympic Games opening ceremony were down 36% compared to 2016, according to preliminary numbers from NBC Universal. 

Why it matters: The figures for the Tokyo Games event mark the lowest audience for an Olympics opening ceremony event in over three decades, per Reuters. 

* Roughly $1 billion has been spent on advertising around the Olympics. 

Ratings are the only real metric marketers can use to justify much of that spend. 

By the numbers: About 17 million people watched the event on broadcast and streaming, according to NBC. Early broadcast numbers suggest some 10 million people watched the event on linear TV.

WNU Editor: The 13 hour time difference on the U.S. East coast does not help the ratings.

Update: The ratings are a smash in Japan .... More than 70 mln people in Japan watched opening ceremony (Reuters).

Go woke go broke

Since coca cola told me to be less white(think of the blatant racism!) I stopped drinking coca cola and also stopped purchasing monster drinks which are part of this racist demonic corporation

I'll do the same with any other corporation that rides this divisive racist destructive band wagon, and I'll haunt them and never let their parent companies forget

Same with race baiting television CNN.. pure garbage, their parent company Warner media is utter filth and I'm boycotting all their shitty movies, these ghouls are responsible for so many lies and so much misery in the West

The right needs to do what the left does shame these companies and people and call them out and make boycott lists..

They oversee the destruction of a civilisation based on lies, hatred and division they help spread

If you got shares, dump them

If you know a local shop keeper, talk to them to remove them from the store and ban their demonic disinformation programs

And so on

Form NGOs that declare them as hate groups

Do what the left does and 10x more until they've learned their lesson and go back to their demonic little caves they lived in all these years
