We struck a bit of a nerve last week when we asked if those who currently produce media in Erie should do more to encourage folks in our minority communities to be more involved in media. It split 2 to 1, with double the respondents thinking that there was plenty of opportunity for minorities to participate in local media vs. those who wish more action was taken to encourage the embracing of media outlets by our minority neighbors.
Last week The Nielsen Co. released its “Three Screens” report (TV, computer & cell phone) for Q4 2008. It revealed that average Americans are spending 151 hours, or six and one-third days watching television each month. That is a record amount, and up 3.6% from last year. This is in spite of the doom and gloom of the pending demise of TV stations and networks that has been preached of late, with more eyes moving to the other screens.
