Press Release: CIMM and TVB Launch Program of Work to Support Local TV Marketplace, Issue Post Analysis Guidelines as First Milestone

The Coalition for Innovative Media Measurement (CIMM) and Television Bureau of Advertising (TVB) has issued new guidelines for local TV aimed to achieve reliable, stable and accurate post analysis where the projected rating – the buyer and seller’s agreed upon audience prior to the ad running – is compared with the measured rating after the ad runs. The Post Analysis Guidelines is the first of three co-funded projects co-developed by CIMM and the TVB, to support the local marketplace.

Feature Commentary: Three Reasons Local Broadcast TV News is Most Trusted, Most Valued

A recent study commissioned by TVB and conducted by Dynata sheds light on just how crucial local TV news remains in the daily lives of its viewers across America. The study, which surveyed over 3,000 respondents, unearthed several compelling insights that underscore the pivotal role of local broadcast TV in people’s lives.

CIMM and the TVB say a four-week aggregation of advertising units for post analysis should have no day- or date-based post analysis. This should improve the reliability of audiences.

“Kennan joins us with an extensive background in news leadership and a deep commitment to fostering positive newsroom environments,” said Jennifer Lyons, who is now formally Regional GM/President for both CBS Detroit and CBS Chicago. “He will report directly to me, lead the newsroom and its day-to-day functions, and serve as the primary station manager when I’m in Chicago.”
More than 3 million viewers watched the broadcast, which more than doubled the previous best.
