Ratings, schmatings

Les Moonves on why Letterman ratings are lower than Leno ratings, despite Moonves’ theory that Letterman gets more viewers:

lmoonves.gif“I don’t think we get enough credit for the multiperson room.”

“We don’t get credit when 200 people watch at a sports bar or a fraternity house where 30 guys are there drinking beer and watching a basketball game. We think Letterman is underrated for that reason,” says Moonves.

We feel your pain, Les. We think we’re underrated, too—mostly because we don’t get credit for other 29 people crowded around your computer screen right now. (One unique user?)
