Wait, I just realized what you wrote. There has to be promos to let people know there will be protests? There's going to be protests at the Oscars too. That's easy to predict because there's a large audience and it is live. The protests and the fact it is clear who is going to win (probably) means another year of record low ratings, even though it was a good year for movies. The #MeToo movement is important and overdue and with Harvey Weinstein as the most prominent villain the Oscars will be its Super Bowl. The public as a whole is tired of hearing about it and also the anti-Trump protests.. So they will tune out.
