As the Commission recognized in the Notice, the best way to help the largest number of AM stations to quickly and efficiently improve their service is to open such an AM-only window. Any other approach will make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for AM stations, to obtain the translators they urgently need to remain competitive and provide our communities with the service they deserve.

    800.275.2840 MORE NEWS» insideradio.com THE MOST TRUSTED NEWS IN RADIO THURSDAY, JANUARY 29, 2015 In down market, radio held on to its share of holiday retail spending. While Americans trimmed their tree, retailers were quietly trimming their holiday ad budgets. Kantar Media data shows $4.04 billion was spent in November and December by retailers, a 16% decline from a year earlier.

Kantar says retailers allocated 7.2% of their holiday ad budget to radio, amounting to $290.2 million. The data shows radio held onto share gains made in 2013. Two media picked up share during November and December. Kantar says television netted half (49.6%) of retailers’ holiday spending. That was up five points from 2013. Digital grew by the same amount, capturing 21.8% of ad budgets. “Concurrent with the shift in shopping from brick and mortar stores to online, there’s a shift in marketing to consumers when they are online,” Kantar chief research officer Jon Swallen says. Those gains primarily came at the expense of newspapers which saw its share decline to 13.3%, a drop of 8% from 2013. Scaled-back retail spending may have been in response to less-than-robust action at the cash register during December.
