Media owners’ advertising revenues will decrease by $42 billion in 2020, from $582 billion to $540 billion, as advertising spending shrinks due to the severe economic recession triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic, as GDP is expected to contract between -5% and -12% across the world’s largest markets.

I chimed in during the whole Total Market debate, the “we can reach everybody” phase; it never seemed right to me. By David R.Morse – New American Dimensions
