reply to Bill Dollar

Re: 70-70 test is for systems with at least 36 channels

said by Bill Dollar:

Interesting you mention Nielsen. Consumers Union did their own analysis of 70-70 with Nielsen data as the primary source, and demonstrated 70-70 had likely been met. Media Access Project used ABI data, and also concluded 70-70 had been met.
In reading these, and considering the sources, I find a bit of speculation in the studies and when you get "close" the line I think people can find ways to keep it under or make it go over.

Two quotes come to mind on both sides of this debate:

"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics." -Samuel Clemens (aka Mark Twain)

"Believe only half of what you see and nothing that you hear." - Dinah Craik
