SAG-AFTRA akan Melisensikan Data Streaming Nielsen

NEW YORK – May 2, 2024 – SAG-AFTRA, the American labor union that represents more than 160,000 professionals in the media and entertainment industries and Nielsen, a global leader in audience measurement, data and analytics, today announced that the union has selected Nielsen as its third-party provider of streaming content measurement.

Powered by Nielsen’s Peringkat Konten Streaming service, which provides audience insights for programs and episodes across streaming platforms, SAG-AFTRA will have an objective source of domestic viewership data for original streaming programming. This data, and the insights gleaned from it, will inform the union’s forecasting and enforcement efforts around the new terms of the streaming bonus provisions of the 2023 TV/Theatrical Contract. As an independent source of audience measurement insights, Nielsen’s data will complement first-party data from streaming platforms and serve as a consistent and comparable lens through which the performance of streaming titles across various distribution platforms can be analyzed.  

"Evolusi yang cepat dari lanskap media dan perilaku audiens selama dekade terakhir tidak hanya memengaruhi bagaimana konten dikonsumsi dan diukur, tetapi juga sangat memengaruhi model keuangan yang menjadi dasar industri hiburan," ujar CEO Nielsen, Karthik Rao. "Kami sangat bangga bahwa SAG-AFTRA telah memilih Nielsen sebagai sumber untuk wawasan pengukuran audiens yang obyektif dan konsisten di bidang streaming."

“New business models require new tools, and that’s why we’ve enlisted Nielsen,” said SAG-AFTRA National Executive Director & Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland. “The information they provide will give us the means to cross-check the data streamers give us and ensure employers are fulfilling their contractual obligations to our members.”
