However, as much as we hate him, Simon Cowell’s announcement that this will be the last season has had serious effects on the ratings. While “Idol” is still in the top 3, ratings are down nearly 20% from last year. Are we suffering from “Idol” [...]
The Southwestern Company products have been changing slowly over time for a while now.
