Oscars Leaving TV for YouTube

[Sympthsical]

6. Good. It's overdue.

A lot of people who cut the cord have no easy way to watch programming like this. And subscribing to a streaming service to watch a (very poor) simulcast sucks.

Frankly, more traditional broadcast programming should be available online for free. I live in a valley equidistant from two broadcasting hubs. A signal here is not a thing. Most of the houses don't even have antennae on the roof. Every Superbowl, we just rotate who has to sign up for the free Fubo trial and remember to cancel it the next day.

Put it online. Run your ads. Go nuts.

I bet more people would watch it, and I think the Academy knows this. Most people under 50 are getting their media online. If the Academy wants to keep it relevant, a move like this was inevitable.

Cable is dying. Broadcast networks are not what they were. Let's acknowledge they're being replaced by Netmounthuney Tubazon corporation. It's fine. Meet people where they are.
