Hmm. On the one hand, they can't lie to advertisers, because those numbers mean actual money, and that means actual fraud if they lie.
On the other hand, it wouldn't surprise me if they had two sets of numbers. One "adjusted" for public consumption (with some bullshit justification used internally for announcing a bigger number), and another one that's only shared with advertisers and will be used for pricing purposes.
Election fraud isn't financial. It's a whole different ball game when you're going against contractual obligations. Elites don't care if you cheat the people. Elites care a LOT if elites try and cheat elites.
They are gonna lie about the ratings just like they lied about the election.
