And from this partic comment, it is very clear what YOU are trying to do- simply try to convince that online TRP is FAKE . So, I suggest you give me links to sound articles just like I have done, from authentic sources, to prove your point.
I agree that TRPs may be an inaccurate measure of a show’s viewership as it is based on extrapolation. That is you take 3000s households and mimic the data for 300000 households (example sake).
Unfortunately BARC is the best bet we have for viewership measurement and is accepted by TV fraternity. Our opinion is not going to change this fact that the entire industry is okay with BARC system.
All I am saying is that we can’t simply say it is being manipulated without any proof. Just because some shows of a particular production house are working, doesn’t mean they are paying for TRPs.
If you make such a claim, then please give me some hard proof. Not some news articles. Proof of such transactions.
