Patrick: one of the major deterrents for broadcasters is that online advertising is not very lucrative right now

and you have to remember its freakin expensive to produce tv

advertisers are hesitant about switching over

8:51 PM so the revenue stream from online advertising is nowhere as high as it is for television broadcast where you have the potential to reach mass amounts of people

but if you can convince them that you're reach isnt as high

but these ads are not only more effective, but targeted as well

it can increase your return on investment significantly

making it much more attractive

then advertisers would shift

8:52 PM once they shift the demand exists

and the costs can reasonably go up

which in turn can bring in more money for broadcasters honestly

especially as viewership continues to migrate

8:54 PM me: you're boring

Consumer Reports Surveys Best Burgers

Consumer Reports recently surveyed 28,000 of its readers to find out which burger chain is the best. I'm assuming Shake Shack (or Joe's) is too small to be considered. Five Guys is good, but as good as In-N-Out?

Keep in mind that about 75% of Consumer Reports readers are 35+ years old, and 38% are 50+

Old people don't know their burgers! I'd give Five Guys a 7 and In-N-Out a 9. In-N-Out is also about 3/4 the price of everything else on this list.
