File this away in the Bury Your Head In The Sand department. In the Wall Street Journal comes an article entitled "Desperate No More? Networks See a Rebound in Viewers".

"The 2004-2005 television season ends today [May 25], and for the first time in more than a decade, the broadcast networks will not post a decline in viewers aged 18 to 49, the age group that advertisers most prize, according to preliminary data from Nielsen Media Research."

Then later in the article, it says:

"The 25-year slide of broadcast television networks ... is coming to an end," said Tom Wolzien, a media analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. in New York.

Amen. And I add this: let's break out the hats and start partying before the next Nielsen's come out!
