Fans of the cancelled CBS series “Jericho” — who sent more than 20 tons of nuts to network offices in New York and LA last year to earn a shortened second season of the show — are planning to conduct a much smaller campaign against Nielsen, which they accuse of being a “monopolistic bully with a firm hold” on the $2 billion television ad industry
