From here on out it will always be ABOUT THE MONEY.When Ad Execs find a way, they will eliminate the programs entirely and fill the time entirely with commercials.Now on ABC's Good Morning America, the breaks are now 8 minutes long split in half by a 30 second 'still' showing temperatures across the country, covering half the screen and the sponsor's product covering the other half.Thanks GOD for TiVo.
