Membership in a Digital World
And Other Pledge Questions…
Digital World
Viewership did not converge on one platform - it’s not a zero-sum game anymore
The audience is the SAME (although it may be smaller…)
Should I pledge all my channels??

More channels mean more GRPs Multicast channels add viewing NOT
cume (almost no new people) Your viewers spend more time with you
Reach of Mature Multiple Services
GRPs for the avg secondary station is about 1/3rd of the primary

Growth?
We expected to see growth as audiences became accustom to watching digital channels
So far mixed…– For Nov. 2010 five digital channels are up
11% in whole week and down 18% in prime time (AQH ratings)
Should I Pledge My 2nd Channel?
Remember trying to pledge against Who Wants to Be a Millionaire when it was new?
If you run regular PTV fare against your own pledge shows you create the PERFECT network competition
Do you want to pledge against ARS???
The Pledge Take Away
Give them pledge choices – counter-program (with strong shows!)
Eventually the maximum you can expect to make on a 2nd channel is 33% of your main channel
You will probably start off at around 5% and build into the 10% range
