Hardly. That's a ridiculous assertion, and if it were true, the same could be said about other sports that play their games every day or almost every day of the week.
One thing most people are forgetting is that when baseball's ratings were highest, it was during the days when we didn't have hundreds of channels to now watch. All sports, baseball among them, now suffer from perceived lack of interest and viewer decline. The same can be said about many good prime time television shows. With so many choices for viewers to make, simple numbers alone would tell anyone that ratings just aren't gonna be that high anymore.
