  • Here's Why Most New Network TV Shows Will Flop
    September 2019 #74 __________________________________________________________________________________________ _____ Here’s Why Most New Network TV Shows Will Flop By Steve Sternberg These are the best of times for TV viewers, but it might be the worst of times for broadcast TV. The mortality rate of new broadcast series is higher than ever. Out of 68 new primetime scripted series premiering in the 2016/17 and 2017/18 seasons, only 11 (16%) will still be on the air in fall 2019. Here are some thoughts on the whys and wherefores. The new TV season is not as relevant as it used to be. Prior to the early 2000s, the new fall TV season was one of the few entertainment topics discussed throughout the summer on syndicated TV shows such as Entertainment Tonight, Extra, and Access Hollywood, and print magazines such as People, Us, and Entertainment Weekly. The broadcast networks aired mostly repeats, cable networks contained mostly off-network reruns and reality, and except for the occasional movie blockbuster or celebrity scandal, there wasn’t much else to focus on. But that was before original scripted series started proliferating on various cable networks during the summer months, and before more than half the country subscribed to at least one streaming service. The new broadcast season simply doesn’t get as much press as it used to. There are new scripted series available to viewers year-round. A Sternberg Report Sponsored Message Unrivaled Reach. Delivered Daily. ION Television gives you access to 100+ MILLION HOMES and growing, including OVER THE AIR. The Sternberg Report ©2019 __________________________________________________________________________________________ _____ Summer and fall programming appeal to different audiences.

  • Donald Trump's Twitter and His Influence On
    Donald Trump’s Twitter and His Influence on the Media: A Study of How Political Social Media Accounts Impact Press Coverage Annika Kay Larson University of Washington 1 Intro With the rise of social media, society has become increasingly interconnected and complex, as people and organizations connect with each other in new ways. Twitter, founded in 2006 in San Francisco, is currently rated the third most popular social media network in the United States and is also a widely used platform internationally (Isaac & Ember 2016). Twitter’s more than 300 million users vary, from members of the public to celebrities, journalists, and politicians. The platform calls itself a “micro blogging service,” where users can voice their thoughts and feelings in posts that are 140 characters or less. The social media platform tracks trending topics, trying to keep users updated on current events. As a result, Twitter has become a source of breaking news and societal reactions to present-day events.
