Although it takes at least a week for BT Television to receive viewership data from the third-party ratings research company it had commissioned, by the second day after the broadcast, all staff at BT Television were certain that their station had become notorious—or to put it another way, infamous.
Since last night until now, the middle of the second day, the four external phone lines of the television station had hardly ever been idle. The two customer service representatives on duty last night looked more exhausted at the shift handover this morning than those women who earned men's money with their oral skills at ordinary clubs all night long.
As for why they had to spend extra money to get viewership data, it was because the few large rating companies in the United State America showed no interest in wasting their energy on cable TV channels with fewer than ten million subscribers or on free TV networks with less than one hundred and fifty partner stations.
