Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 731107">I think the Kaepernick business was a factor, but the bigger factor was Trump sucking air out of the viewership room with incendiary campaign speeches on a near daily basis, tweets flying at all times of the day or night, with instantaneous cable news coverage.  Regardless of one's political affiliation, it became "must see TV".Cable TV news ratings are still running high on the zig and zag of the administration's daily developments.  Whether you call it a hit reality show, compelling soap opera or dynamic governance, people are tuning in.With Kaepernick out of the picture we'll see if the ratings go flat or struggle.  I think they will.  It also doesn't help that the most compelling story out of NY or LA is Beckham's sideline and off field antics.</blockquote>
