IN THE NEWS
Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-TX) want details about the proposed sports streaming service from Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery and Fox. “The Joint Venture raises questions about how this new offering would affect access, competition, and choice in the sports streaming market,” the lawmakers wrote to Bob Iger, David Zaslav and Lachlan Murdoch. “Without more complete information about the pricing, intent, and organization of this new venture, we are concerned that this consolidation will result in higher prices for consumers and less fair licensing terms for upstream sports leagues and downstream video distributors.” A response is requested by April 30, answers the DOJ be would be copied on.
Internet advertising revenues reached a record high of $225 billion, increasing by 7.3% year-over-year overall between 2022 and 2023, according to the “IAB Internet Advertising Revenue Report: Full Year 2023,” conducted by PwC. The report found that Q4 saw the highest growth rate, 12.3% from the year prior (4.4%), with revenues rising to $64.5 billion. “Despite inflation fears, interest rates at record highs, and continuing global unrest, the US digital advertising industry continued its growth trajectory in 2023,” said David Cohen, CEO, IAB. “With significant industry transformation unfolding right before our eyes, we believe that those channels with a portfolio of privacy-by-design solutions will continue to outpace the market. For 2023, the winners were retail media, CTV, and audio which saw the highest growth.”
LGBTQIA+ representation in TV content drives viewing among not just American LGBTQIA+ audiences, but appeals to younger (18-34 year-old) American audiences overall, according to Horowitz Research report, “State of Media, Entertainment, and Tech: FOCUS LGBTQIA+.” Sixty-six percent of LGBTQIA+ content viewers say that they are more likely to watch a show that is inclusive of LGBTQIA+ characters and/or features stories around their culture/community, while 1 in 3 18-34 year-olds also agree that they are more likely to watch a show with LGBTQIA+ characters and stories. Nearly half (46%) of American audiences, ages 18-34, also want to see characters with disabilities and/or bilingual characters.
The report found that demand for LGBTQIA+ inclusive content is not limited to just entertainment, but also for advertising. Ads featuring diverse people, lifestyles, and cultures have a positive impact on brand perceptions for 71% of LGBTQIA+ consumers and 6 in 10 younger audiences in general. Similarly, including LGBTQIA+ people in ads resonates with 7 in 10 LGBTQIA+ consumers and almost half (46%) of younger consumers. Both segments also favor ads that try to change damaging stereotypes about people of color and other marginalized groups.
“LGBTQIA+ stories and characters are inherently American stories and characters, and for content and advertising to realistically portray the American experience today, it needs to be inclusive of LGBTQIA+ experiences,” said Adriana Waterston, EVP and Insights and Strategy Lead for Horowitz Research. “It will be important for media brands and advertisers to get comfortable with LGBTQIA+ inclusion, even if it means ruffling some feathers along the way, if they want to resonate with younger generations of Americans.”
Sesame Workshop writers have unanimously voted to authorize a strike, says the WGA. Contract talks began February 13, with proposals on the table for annual raises, improvements to residuals, and union coverage for animation and social media divisions. “No one wants to see a picket line on Sesame Street,” said WGAE President Lisa Takeuchi Cullen. “Millions of parents and families around the world are going to have a lot of questions. They might ask why the bosses at Sesame Workshop are ignoring their company’s own messages of kindness and fairness.”
Smartmatic and One America News Network have reached a confidential settlement over the network’s claims that Smartmatic conspired to steal the 2020 election. “As other news organizations publicly acknowledged that they had seen no evidence to support claims of election fraud or of voting machines switching votes, OANN mocked those news organizations and doubled down on its attacks on voting machines,” said Smartmatic in its lawsuit, filed in 2021. “OANN knew its assertions about Smartmatic were not true. OANN had seen no evidence to support the assertions. But OANN chose to spread disinformation.” Lawsuits against Fox News and Newsmax are pending.
NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises is raising awareness during Financial Literacy Month with its nationwide campaign, Nuestras Finanzas (Our Finances). The initiative aims to empower the US Hispanic community by providing essential information and Spanish-language resources on various facets of financial literacy.
REELZ signed a cosponsor agreement with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in support of the organization’s goal of keeping children safe. The partnership with REELZ will include PSAs that will air in all day parts in 2024 and 2025 and will be further promoted on social media channels of the two organizations. “Public service has always been important to REELZ,” said REELZ CEO Stan E. Hubbard. “It’s been important throughout the 100-year history of the Hubbard Broadcasting family going back to our broadcast roots….When I’m watching live like everyone else and I hear that a missing kid has been found there’s nothing that makes us more proud. It’s the most important thing we do here at REELZ.” |

TECH TALK
Airbnb is the top advertiser by search sentiment, followed by Viacom and Netflix. That’s according to search intelligence provider Captify’s new report “How Sentiment in Search Behavior Fuels Consumer Consideration,” an analysis of search trends to understand consumer sentiment in searches and how it drives consideration for brands in each industry. The report found that travel advertisers have the highest consumer sentiment score, followed by entertainment and media, retail, and restaurants. Comparatively, automotive had the lowest sentiment score, followed by financial services, alcohol, and telecom. “Brands within the top 10 were successful because they limited unforced errors that triggered negative sentiment and generated positive sentiment consistently month-in and month-out,” said Isaac Gerber, Isaac Gerber, Global Director, Insights & Analytics, Captify. “Even when they do have negative coverage around them, like Netflix announcing its one account per house rule, the company was able to rebound due to its commitment to delivering high-quality content and consumers seeking out their original content over other streamers. By staying true to their brand values and balancing the good with the bad, brands can be successful in driving positive consumer sentiment.”
SPORTS ROUNDUP
SiriusXM Media, GroupM, and Edison Research today unveiled the first Sports Audio Report, a joint study revealing trends and habits around sports audio (podcasts, satellite & radio shows) consumption among sports fans aged 13+ in the US. Insights include:
· 66% of Americans age 13+ consider themselves Sports Fans, equating to 186 million Americans
· 43% of Sports Fans say they closely follow the personal lives of the athletes they like – but young sports fans are much more likely to be invested in players’ lives (52% of Gen Z Sports Fans and 57% of Millennial Sports Fans)
· 1 in 3 Sports Fans say they currently follow a women’s sports team or a female athlete (32%), with younger generations (Gen Z & Millennials) and Multicultural sports fans more likely to follow Women’s Sports
· Sports audio listeners spend an average of $262 on sports merch/memorabilia in a year ($321 for sports podcast listeners), compared to $185 for sports video viewers.
· 2 in 3 Sports Fans say they like hearing/seeing their favorite athletes in ads – even higher among those who listen to sports content on Podcasts (81%) or SiriusXM (76%)
“There is a deep connection between listeners and the audio content they consume, whether it’s music, sports, talk shows, books or podcasts,” said Jen Soch, Executive Director, Channel Solutions, GroupM US. “Many times, audio audiences find content related to their interests and passions, and we know sports fans’ zeal is unmatched. Audio is a critical component of holistic media investments, and it needs to be a top consideration for brands looking to extend their reach and overall presence in sports.”

After 19 years as the Boston Bruins Play-by-Play broadcaster on New England Sports Network, Jack Edwards has announced his retirement following the 2023-24 postseason games on NESN. “I grew up a Bruins fan, and who had more fun than us over the last two decades?” said Edwards. “In collaboration with Bruins and NESN leadership, I recently decided that the time has come for me to finish my shift as the voice of the Boston Bruins. I am no longer able to attain the standards I set for myself, to honor the fans, the players, the Bruins organization and NESN with the best they all deserve. I retire from broadcasting not with a heavy heart, but gratefulness for a 19-year-long joyride.” |
