Seat­tle mar­ket #1 for Doc­u­men­tary view­ing and #2 for Sci­ence-Fic­tion If you are what you con­sume, then Seattle’s TV view­ing habits are total­ly in sync with its rep­u­ta­tion as a well-edu­­cat­ed and high-tech mec­ca. Accord­ing to the most recent Nielsen Scar­bor­ough Research Study, Seat­­tle-Taco­­ma ranks first among the top 15 mar­kets in the nation for…

Holiday Favorite Clydesdales Put Out to Pasture as Budweiser Taps Younger Market

All tapped out Bud­weis­er is los­ing its mar­ket share among 21–27-year-old Mil­len­ni­als and its place on bar-tap line up to craft brews in many mar­kets. Accord­ing to a recent Wall Street Jour­nal arti­cle, some 44% of these cov­et­ed drinkers have nev­er tried Bud­weis­er. Bud Light took the top tap in Anheuser-Busch InBev NV’s prod­uct line-up…

Seattle Media Spotlight: Classic Rock KZOK-FM

Reel­ing in the Years: Clas­sic Rock and Seat­tle A life well-lived is a con­stant stream of “firsts,” some wel­come and exhil­a­rat­ing, and some not so wel­come and dis­qui­et­ing. The lat­ter includes the first time the music of your youth is referred to as “clas­sic rock.” Want your mind blown? The baby on the album cover…

Seattle Media Economy Starts Year Strong

2013 was a year media com­pa­nies were hap­py to have behind them. Fit­ful at best, most saw their rev­enues stall or decline. It was par­tic­u­lar­ly so with Seat­tle media; by year end, ad spend­ing was off 5.8% from 2012 with the most sig­nif­i­cant loss­es in, of all media, local spot tele­vi­sion. One could almost hear…

Is Video Advertising the Key to Engagement?

In a near per­fect merg­ing of polar oppo­sites, video and sta­tis­tics, Shut­ter­stock, with data part­ner com­Score and oth­ers, has cre­at­ed a video info­graph­ic called “Show Me Some­thing” that high­lights the expo­nen­tial growth and engage­ment pow­er of online video. Take a minute to watch the video; it’s a com­pelling sto­ry based most­ly on comScore’s Video Metrix prod­uct and…

Media Planning: A Legend, Slapdashery, Bandied Buys and An Offer to Help

The loss of a leg­end It was with great sad­ness that I learned of the recent pass­ing of media research leg­end and men­tor to many, Erwin Ephron. I nev­er met Mr. Ephron, but hear­ing of his pass­ing feels like I lost an admired col­league. I dis­cov­ered his writ­ings ear­ly in my career and lat­er made…

March Madness: The Real Action is in Front of the TV Set

There are two things that sig­nal the com­ing of the Seat­tle Spring – the blos­som­ing of the cher­ry trees in the UW Quad and all the buzz sur­round­ing March Mad­ness and the NCAA Men’s Bas­ket­ball Tour­na­ment. The Big Dance is the only sport­ing event that is direct­ly cred­it­ed with drain­ing work­er pro­duc­tiv­i­ty. More than 140…
