   Benny can't come to grips with the fact the JFK assassination is of interest   
   to a niche special   
   interest group. Whereas in the days when broadcast TV ruled the world, a   
   program had to   
   draw many millions of viewers, now with cable, streaming, podcast, and social   
   media options,   
   programs are being produced that are directed at a few thousand subscribers.   
   Any schmuck    
   with a webcam can create content. Even someone like Gil.    
      
   The NatGeo documentary will likely draw a decent sized audience. It's been   
   advertised for    
   months, so an audience of tens of thousands is likely. Perhaps even six   
   figures. In a country of   
   330 million people, about 10 million more if you count illegal immigrants,   
   that's not much of an   
   audience. The opening episode will be up against Sunday night football game   
   which will draw   
   hundreds of times more viewers. Of course, nothing draws well when it is up   
   against the NFL.
