The GOP’s post-objective-truth politics is not good TV
Gordon Ramsay’s “MasterChef,” and NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” bested the RNC in ratings. Following a “MasterChef” repeat at 8 p.m., a new episode of the show at 9 drew the night’s top numbers in the demo, climbing 17 percent from last week for a 2.8/8 and attracting 6.5 million total viewers.
