My Two Cents MAIN OFFICES 216 EAST 75TH STREET NEW YORK, NY 10021 TEL: (212) 288-3933 FAX: (212) 288-3424 VIDEO AGE WEBSITES: he sale of Variety on the part of Reed Business Information (RBI) has unveiled a gross www.videoage.org discrepancy between the reality and perception of specialized publications in our industry. www.videoagelatino.com The perception is that online entertainment trades, such as Deadline Hollywood and The www.videoage.it Wrap, are killing specialized print media like Variety. P.O. BOX 25282 The reality is that even Deadline Hollywood has to print special editions (16 editions , CA 90025 between 2010 and 2012) to make some money. VIALE ABRUZZI 30 The perception is that Hollywood’s online entertainment trade publications are read T 20123 MILAN, by film and television buyers outside the U.S. and Canada. The reality is that international TV buyers read VideoAge and their local publications YUKARI MEDIA both online and in print. International film buyers also read local gossip and print trade YMI BLDG. 3-3-4, UCHIHIRANOMACHI publications as well as local online aggregators of Hollywood news. CHUO-KU, OSAKA JAPAN The perception is that during TV markets such as L.A. Screenings and MIPCOM, TEL: (816) 4790-2222 buyers have time to go online to read trade news. EDITOR The reality is that, during markets, buyers and sellers alike barely have the time to read DOM SERAFINI their e-mails. At those and other trade shows, the only types of media that work are easily ASSISTANT EDITOR perused dailies, like VideoAge Daily. SARA ALESSI The perception is that, because the website of The Hollywood Reporter (or THR) averages a reported five million unique visitors per month, versus 650,000 for Variety, the former is more valuable than the latter. EDITORIAL CONTRIBUTORS ENZO CHIARULLO (ITALY) The reality is that the worldwide TV industry comprises just 2,000 qualified buyers, 3,000 if we include ancillary. Therefore, LUCY COHEN BLATTER all those extra visitors are only curious onlookers. Plus, the fact that those websites attract so many visitors indicates that they CARLOS GUROVICH are more C2C or, at the most, more B2C than B2B. The pharmaceutical industry, with its specialized newsletters to doctors, LEAH HOCHBAUM ROSNER teaches us that targeted readers are more valuable than generic ones. BOB JENKINS (U.K.) Another perception is that publications such as Variety and THR make lots of money. AKIKO KOBAYACHI (JAPAN) The reality is that they don’t. In 2010, Nielsen LORENA SANCHEZ (ARGENTINA) Business Media sold THR and seven other titles LEVI SHAPIRO — including Billboard Magazine and four trade DAVID SHORT (AFRICA) shows such as Sho West — for a reported ERIN SOMERS average of about $7 million for each business. MARIA ZUPPELLO (BRAZIL) The titles were acquired by e5 Global Media (now Prometheus Global Media), a complex CORPORATE AND partnership supposedly set up to share the risks, CIRCULATION OFFICE which, according to the NY Post, is now “plotting 216 EAST 75TH STREET [its] own exit strategy.” NEW YORK, NY 10021 TEL: (212) 288-3933 I wouldn’t have touched THR with a 10-foot pole because, in my view, it doesn’t have a brand with FAX: (212) 734-9033 a future in our trade business. Perhaps it has some PUBLISHER potential in the consumer arena, but that’s another MONICA GORGHETTO story. On the other hand, Variety has a good trade brand (but it’s still a small asset), even if it’s been BUSINESS OFFICE mismanaged over the past 25 years in the sense that LEN FINKEL it digressed from being a pure specialized rag — an LEGAL OFFICE inevitable consequence for trade magazines that ROBERT ACKERMANN end up in the hands of conglomerates. STEVE SCHIFFMAN Now Variety is on the block for a third time since WEB MANAGER it was sold in 1987 by its original owner to Cahners Publishing, which later became RBI. In 2008 RBI MIKE FAIVRE “Our parent company has put us up for adoption.” took Variety off the market because it couldn’t get its DESIGN/LAYOUT asking price (reportedly $100 million). To handle CARMINE RASPAOLO the sale, RBI has now called on Evercore Partners, a New York City-based investment company, which is also expected to leverage Variety’s other businesses, like conferences (it will ILLUSTRATIONS produce 30 conferences in 2012), research, online services and TV shows, to get a better price than the FT’s low estimate of $10 BOB SHOCHET million. However, all those ancillary activities have raised yearly revenues (set at $30 million by FT), but have not improved the bottom FOUNDED IN 1981 line (its EBITDA is estimated by Media Business at $2 million), and may have, possibly, had a part in diminishing the role of Variety’s MEMBER OF NBCA core business, which was trade publishing. (CIRCULATION) The perception is trade publications are cut-throat, and therefore the fewer there are, the better. Indeed, one might wonder VIDEO AGE INTERNATIONAL (ISSN 0278-5013 USPS 601-230) IS why I’m concerned at all rather than happy to potentially lose some competition. Well, first of all, in the international TV sector, PUBLISHED SEVEN TIMES A YEAR: JANUARY, MARCH/APRIL, MAY, JUNE, JULY, OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER/DECEMBER. PLUS DAILIES BY THR was never competition for VideoAge. Clients have told me that they advertised in THR for “political” (meaning local) TV TRADE MEDIA, INC. SINGLE COPY U.S.$9.75. YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION reasons, a code word for vanity . Variety, on the other hand, was more of a competitor, if only limited because of their rates, U.S.$45 (U.S., CANADA, MEXICO); U.S.$60 (U.K. AND EUROPE). which were not efficient for TV distributors. © TV TRADE MEDIA INC. 2012.

PAN-AMERICAN CONVENTION. SEND ADDRESS CHANGES TO VIDEO AGE INTERNATIONAL, 216 EAST 75TH STREET, SUITE PW, NEW YORK, So, the point of this diatribe is a two-fold appeal to industry leaders: First, through their influence and leadership, they should NY 10021, U.S.A. assure that trade publications don’t end up in corporate hands that have no clue how the industry works and what its needs are.
