Lately, I wonder if there is anyone out there! There are a few excellent posts by pave and Jon, and RadioFan - but gee, does anyone have anything to say?
Is it that quiet in radio?
I wonder.
Today - reading that ad revenue in Newspapers, in the US, is down 50% in the last year and 100 newspapers have sold in the last few months, but many big old properties are not selling, at any price.
Remember when the Real Estate Classifieds, and the weekend news, were about the same size? OVER.
Magazines? A disaster. No one reads 'em - it's all on-line and next- watch as traditional shopping in big stores ends - as people buy more and more on line.
TV is feeling pinch and you will see many of those cable channels were stuck paying for, disappear now that CRTC regs have changed.
Rogers stock? Good luck with that - any media stock is going to be under pressure.
Mr Casady at CORUS must be going bananas, as he sees his stock fall off the table - just before he retires.
This from the Globe:
Corus Entertainment Inc has a net profit margin of -4.45%. Besides being negative, it is also below the industry average and implies that this company is not effective at turning revenues into bottom line profit.
The times have changed and maybe the stillness here is a reflection of this change.
Cheers.
