Nobody watches tv campaign ads anymore - shit, nobody watches any tv ads. We all have DVRs or no tv at all. What a desperate attempt to make Hillary relevant. Nice try, Charlotte Observer. We're not that dumb.
There's two giant demographics that watch TV ads, and they vote for opposite sides. One already hates Trump, the other already hates Hillary. TV ads aren't going to change either group's minds.

I sort of doubt that, but I'm willing to change my mind in light of real evidence (it's not like I offered any either).
Edit - here's a 6 year old article that shows 86% of us are skipping ads. My hunch is to say, in 2016, that number is higher, not lower. The Guardian - TV advertising skipped by 86% of viewers
