a note on media markets « Previous | |Next »
October 4, 2006

I read somewhere that the marketing and media executives are trying to reach --herd was the word used---youth who refuse to sit in an armchair and passively consume their daily media diet. TV is not their medium. Radio is background noise. They read newspaers online.

Apparently--and old Rupert Murdoch has cottoned onto MySpace---hanging out together in some new place online --YouTube---where they make their own news and entertainment. Their websites---Flickr--- mainly consist of content created by their own users for themselves. They control the digital media they consume.

That puts paid to the mass market audience doesn't it.
