Thank you for supporting acknowledgement of climate change. Your father is all about bums on seats. An example of this is Sky News. He signs up living entities who have a large following.
An example would be Paul Murray and Allen Jones. Lets say they average 50,000 viewers per night. A survey finds that each viewer spends $10 per day on advertised products. Consider that each show is on 300 days a year. Yearly viewer spending owing to advertising would be 150 million dollars.
Management shows these figures to advert companies. Let’s say they make 30 million per show. Mr Murray and Mr Jones agents also show these figures to management.
People ask why Sky is a bit toxic towards the lefties. There’s 150 million reasons why.


For four decades The Echo has printed the stories some people loved, some people hated, and some pretended not to read. If you want us to keep telling the truth, the real truth, not the sugar-coated version. We’ll need your support to keep the presses rolling.
