There is an article here with quotes from Val Venis, who is supporting Ron Paul in the Presidential race.

TNA on Thursday did an 0.99 rating and 1.3 million viewers. Still down about 200,000 viewers on average from when they were at one hour.

Part II of Todd Martin's history of MMA is here. These are really some must-read articles.
