New York, NY – Oct. 29, 2020 – Nielsen (NYSE: NLSN) and Cunningham Broadcasting Inc. in Baltimore, Md., have reached a multi-year renewal agreement for local TV measurement. Cunningham Broadcasting is subscribing to local market data for stations including WATM-ABC, WWCP-FOX (Johnstown-Altoona-St College PA) and WTAT-FOX (Charleston-SC). The new agreement also includes the industry leading Nielsen Scarborough local qualitative service.
"Jesteśmy podekscytowani ponowną współpracą z firmą Nielsen" - powiedział Michael Anderson, prezes Cunningham Broadcasting Inc. "Pakiet produktów i usług przyniesie ogromne korzyści nam i naszym klientom".
Stacje Cunningham są zaangażowane w usługi społeczne i sprawy publiczne poprzez lokalne wiadomości, pogodę, sport i oryginalne programy na tradycyjnych platformach nadawczych i cyfrowych w Pensylwanii i Karolinie Południowej.
"Z przyjemnością witamy WATM-ABC, WWCP-FOX i WTAT-FOX z powrotem w Nielsen i w naszych rozszerzonych możliwościach pomiaru oglądalności telewizji lokalnej i cieszymy się na współpracę z nimi, aby wspierać ich sukces w tych bezprecedensowych czasach" - powiedziała Catherine Herkovic, EVP i dyrektor zarządzająca Nielsen Local. "Nasze podstawowe dane, a także informacje jakościowe Scarborough, pomogą im pomóc lokalnym reklamodawcom dowiedzieć się, gdzie znaleźć docelowych konsumentów.
“We also recently announced the addition of Comcast return-path data (RPD) to measurement in 47 RPD+ markets effective in January 2021,” added Herkovic. “The addition of these data to the measurement of these markets brings increased sample size and stability as well as reliability of the data. With Nielsen’s currency-grade, representative measurement, the stations will be well positioned to demonstrate the full value of their linear, over-the-air and digital audiences to accelerate growth.”
Last October, Nielsen announced that it had completed a major transformation of its Local Television business combining advanced meter technology, big data and people-powered panels into its local TV measurement service. This announcement of enhanced currency measurement marked the capstone of a comprehensive overhaul across 208 local markets.
