Reply to comment by rupay in TV Ratings: ‘Accused’ Starts Well on Fox After Huge NFL Lead-In - The Fox anthology drama posts the biggest series premiere of the season (8.71 million viewers) by Neo2199
It's not a good strategy because it's playing a bluff on the jury. You can't present anything in a trial that's a roll of the dice, you only say stuff where you know what the outcome will be.
The second point is coming at it from a more reddity/social justice view point I feel, whether he went through with it or not or should have is irrelevant to the central notion of if he was an accessory, and this is just conjecture essentially.

>US media titan Fox stands accused of playing the Emergency Alert System attention tone to promote an NFL show on dozens of TV channels
Should be more. Nothing will be learned other than that it's merely the fee for pulling this type of stunt.

Think he’s been grey for a while, he’s decided to stop dying his hair.

Saved you a click. They played the emergency broadcast tone for a football commercial. You aren't allowed to use the tone to protect its integrity.

Reply to comment by ArkyBeagle in With NextGen TV Transition `Stalled,' NAB Asks FCC for ATSC 3.0 Taskforce by antdude
Thanks, but we have all major networks using ATSC 3. I can not get one of their ATSC 1 signal. I don't think that DVR can receive ATSC 3. It looks like an interesting device though.

This seems like the sort of thing an executive was likely warned about, but said do it anyway.

It is surprisingly melancholic (in the sense of feeling sorry for the characters, which is the intent).

Depending on your threshold of pain, there are quite cheap DVRs available. The one I have loses programming on power fails but it's got some cool metering for signal strength. It's the "iView 3300STB ATSC Converter Box".
I think it's $30.

I don't know they appear to be doing the movie's plot all over again when the reason people loved the Goosebumps show was the anthology format.

Still loved it, but they really only used The Predator when it was convenient to the plot

Wow it's almost like forcing the use of an unsupported audio codec with draconian licensing was a bad idea. /s

Tuners run like $30 bucks for one that can't tolerate things like power failure well.

It goes from nepotism to nepo baby when the person benefiting tries to act like they didn't benefit and got to where they are on talent or will alone.

...no, they didn't. Double dipping was around and not approved of loooong before Seinfeld. One of the uses was double dipping in terms of people collecting a public sector pension and working a second job in the public sector.
