A new study on digital pricing by the Interactive Advertising Bureau and Bain & Company found that ad networks handled 30 percent of major web publishers' sales in 2007 compared to just 5 percent the prior year, Online Media Daily reports. The study concludes that this trend could negatively impact overall web revenue, since CPMs earned through ad networks are usually a fraction the going rates for display inventory sold directly by major publishers.
New editor Ragnar Carlson tells the Honolulu Advertiser the Weekly will no longer run a column by Hawai'i Democratic Party chairman Brian Schatz. "It has really nothing to do with the content of Brian's pieces but more to do with our responsibility to report aggressively on local politics," he says. Schatz had written the column since 2007 after he left the state House for an unsuccessful run for Congress.
Baltimore City Paper, Metro Times, Orlando Weekly and the San Antonio Current are as of today exclusively represented by Ruxton for national print advertising, according to a press release. The papers will join their newly-acquired sister paper, the Cleveland Scene, as part of the advertising network owned and operated by Village Voice Media. VVM chief operating officer Scott Tobias says the discussions about joining Ruxton began while VVM and Times-Shamrock were negotiating the sale of the Scene earlier this year. The addition of the four papers means Ruxton has a print presence in 50 American cities, including all of the top 20 markets, with a total weekly print circulation of more than 3.6 million.
With auto sales at their lowest point in 15 years, car manufacturers and local dealers are cutting way back on advertising, according to the New York Times. "You're talking about cars sitting on lots for 90 days," says Mort Goldstrom, vice president for advertising at the Newspaper Association of America. "The dealers are saying, 'I have cars that won't move. And I can't advertise.' It's because of cash flow." A recent report from TNS Media Intelligence shows that the auto industry's first quarter spend was down $414 million from last year.
That's what the New Mexico governor and erstwhile Democratic presidential hopeful said while accepting his "Best of Santa Fe" award for "Best Politician." Richardson said he's been an avid reader of the Reporter for many years, and said, tongue firmly planted in cheek, that he considered the paper the best because "they have excellent taste in politicians."
