The new TV bundle – Nielsen

Much has been said about the impact of streaming on the way audiences engage with TV, but the extent is no better exemplified than by the behavior of audiences in TV homes who don’t pay for cable or satellite programming. A specific subset of these homes, which rely on a digital antenna for free, over-the-air (OTA) programming, watch the most broadcast programming of all U.S. TV households, but that’s starting to change.  The significant amount of broadcast TV viewing within these homes certainly isn’t surprising, given that’s what digital antennas provide access to. These former broadcast programs are now more connected and OTT content has become more popular. This is allowing them to balance their TV programming with sports and news. OTA home viewers still see more broadcast programming that those who have broadband or cable plus, but they are less likely to be able to access it. 1 Television households are now watching less TV than ever before (1:54 per person per day in 2017...

Paulette Chaffee, Educator, Offers Advice on How To Keep Kids Safe on Social Media

Social media platforms are growing increasingly popular in our digital age. However, when everyone in the world seems to have a social media profile, it can be challenging for a parent to monitor online activity to keep a child safe on social media.  Educator  Paulette Chaffee , encourages parents to take a proactive approach rather than overreacting and driving kids to social media secrecy. She suggests these simple steps to guide a parent’s approach to keeping kids safe while using the internet and social media: 1. Embrace Open Communication Creating an  open dialogue  with a child about their online activity supports safety more than secrecy.

Streaming climbs to new heights again in April despite a dip in total TV viewing – Nielsen

Another milestone was reached by streaming in April, when audiences spent over 30% of their TV time viewing video-over-the-top content. For the first-time, streaming has exceeded 30% of all TV usage. This increase in share was supported by nearly the same amount of streaming than in March, despite the 2.1% drop in total TV viewing. Seasonally, this is reflective of the usage at the beginning of spring. As we’ve been tracking, the growth of the streaming industry has welcomed an array of new entrants, each with their own roster of content offerings. That growth is reflected in the rising engagement with the “other streaming” category, which has gained more than two full share points since SME debuted The Gauge with May 2021 TV viewing data. In April HBO Max’s share grew to 1%. This is the threshold that allows for stand-alone representation as shown in the chart below.  Although streaming volume was steady month over month, cable and broadcast saw their respective viewing figures...

U.S. podcast listenership continues to grow, and audiences are resuming many pre-pandemic spending behaviors – Nielsen

Podcasts saw a remarkable increase in audience engagement during the pandemic which drove millions of people indoors and in front screens. In addition to the new listeners and increased engagement, there is also a growing number of listeners. While the rise in engagement is somewhat contrary to what might be expected amid the many consumer changes over the past two years, podcast listenership–even at home–has transformed much of the general public into light listeners. In fact, the U.S. podcast  listener base has grown by 40% 1 Over the last three years, 51% of customers have opted for this product. 2 According to them, they have been listening for the past two decades. Importantly, the strength of the mainstream-bound podcast industry spans beyond simply offering wide-ranging audiences a growing bevy of titles for content-hungry audiophiles—especially for advertisers. That’s because podcast audiences are shedding their COVID-induced spending inhibitions.  83% of Amer...

Podcasting Today – Nielsen

It was funny that podcasts saw their audience engage during a pandemic which drove millions of people indoors and in front screens. This is a sign of increased engagement for many reasons. While audio is often considered an in-car medium by many, podcasting has become more popular at home. The media choice landscape is changing faster than ever. Advertising to a wider audience offers advertisers greater reach and more brand recognition than any other form of advertising. As many consumers are returning to some of their prepandemic habits, podcast advertising is a great option for brands who want to raise their visibility or drive higher-funnel interaction. In fact, SME’s ongoing consumer sentiment study found in March 2022 that podcast listeners are more likely than the general population to resume some of their pre-pandemic activities, including shopping for groceries at physical stores, shopping for non-grocery items at physical stores and dining out at restaurants.

Judge dismisses Trump lawsuit against Twitter over ban

SME Business  —  A federal judge in San Francisco has dismissed former President Donald Trump’s lawsuit against Twitter that sought to reinstate his banned account on the platform, according to a court filing. Twitter has won the case. It had requested Judge James Donato from the US District Court in the Northern District of California to dismiss the suit. In throwing out Trump’s case, Donato held that Twitter was not acting as an agent of the US government — as Trump had alleged — when it shut down his account and was therefore not infringing on Trump’s First Amendment rights to free speech. “The amended complaint does not plausibly allege a First Amendment claim against Twitter,” the decision said. “Plaintiffs’ first claim is dismissed.” “Donato also threw out Trump’s other claims, such as that Section 230 — the law shielding tech platforms from lawsuits over most user-generated content — is unconstitutional. Twitter declined to comment on the suit’s dismissal. Tru...

Elon Musk says he would reverse Twitter’s Trump ban

New York SME Business  —  Elon Musk said Tuesday that he would restore former President Donald Trump’s banned account on Twitter if his deal to acquire the company is completed. Musk’s remarks at Financial Times’ Future of the Car conference mark his first public acknowledgment of what had been widely expected since the billionaire announced plans to buy the social media giant for $44 billion. Musk has previously said he thinks Twitter should be more “reluctant to delete things” and “very cautious with permanent bans.” On Tuesday, he called Twitter’s decision to ban Trump in January 2021 a “mistake.” “I do think it was not correct to ban Donald Trump, I think that was a mistake,” Musk said. “I would reverse the perma-ban … But my opinion, and Jack Dorsey, I want to be clear, shares this opinion, is that we should not have perma-bans.” Dorsey, Twitter’s cofounder and former CEO, tweeted Tuesday following Musk’s remarks that he does “agree” there shouldn’t be permanent...

Steering Clear of Groupthink in Business

Steering Clear of Groupthink in Business Businesses tend to create groups and panels to help them solve a problem or make a decision on something. Despite the virtue of bringing ideas together, these groups tend to kill creativity and innovation. Group members make quick decisions, especially when the most influential group members come up with an idea. Here are ways businesses can avoid the consequences that result from group think. • Leaders Should First Keep Their Ideas To Themselves Leaders or people with higher positions tend to influence the decisions made in a group. In most cases, group members will go with the group’s ideas made by influential people. According to pain management specialist Jordan Sudberg , employees might feel intimidated to share ideas contrasting with their leaders for fear of falling out of favor. Leaders should, therefore, first keep their opinions to themselves and encourage others to brainstorm and come up with their ideas. • Inclusivity Businesses...
