Anyway, not the place for this discussion. Ireland doesnt use it, the UN doesn't use it, and IIRC even the British government doesn't use it (at least when dealing with us), so best to just not use it. Its not a human rights violation it just sounds dumb cause it's wrong and colonial E: vvvvvvv

german tv ratings are coming in cold and slow Day 1 quote:The TV ratings for yesterday's opening match between Qatar and Ecuador are in. The game, which was shown by public broadcaster ZDF, was the third-most watched program on German TV yesterday, with a viewership of 6.21 million (a share of 28.2%), losing to an episode of crime procedural Tatort which had 9.25 million viewers (29.8%).

USA vs Wales was the most watched game, with 4.35 million viewers at 8pm, with the two flagship news programs "Tagesschau" and "heute" taking the top spots and the direct competitor, an episode of Donna Leon's Comissario Brunetti (a weird show with German actors pretending to be Italians) coming in third (both with a share of ~16%).

ITV in the UK issued a warning to shareholders during its earnings report that their advertising income would be way down. Both from expected reduced ad spend in general and also lower than usual World Cup ratings because it clashes with the usual Christmas ad period. So there wasn’t going to be a big boost to ad income like there usually is during a World Cup year.

I suspect US numbers will be decent because at least the early games overlap a holiday week.

But it’s a holiday week that’s already jam packed with sporting events including nfl games nba games and most college sports rivalry games. November conflicts with three of the countrys four most popular sports it’s just about the worst time in terms of tv competition

Summer you’re only competition is baseball which is an old man sport that’s only popular in New York and New England these days. Honestly it’s the best time you’ll get.

Forrest on Fire posted:I don't think they really care about the US audience, and they're right not to. If you're a European fan you're getting all invested and motivated for club football, then everything comes to a stop so you can watch a flagrantly bought World Cup in an unsuitable country occur, and then you have to hope that no stars get an ACL tear when the leagues restart. It's loving dreadful.
