State Of The Union Moved B/C American Idol?

Was the State Of The Union Address scheduled to run at 9:00pm because the President didn't want to compete with American Idol on Fox at 8:00pm? I don't know, just a little theory of mine.

American Idol was not on this Tuesday I do not think. It would be hilarious the State Of The Union Address competing for nilson raitings.

American Idol #1 with 33 million viewers
24 #2 with 30 million viewers
Fraiser #3 with 25 million viewers
State of the Union Address #4 with 15 million viewers



I know they do top 10 nielson raitings for the whole week, but I just choose some shows on tuesday. The number of viewers is also way off.

American Idol was on Tuesday, I'm sure of it.

Yep I bet thats exactly why it was moved. What good would a state of the union be if no one cared to listen to it.

I agree, the ratings are through the roof for AI

Isn't the state of the union traditionally at 9 anyway?
