Stereotypes In A Comscore Study

551 Words3 Pages

There’s a new report that recently surfaced saying that if people have to receive ads, they’d rather hear them in podcasts. According to the results of the new comScore study, ads within a podcast are found to be the least intrusive of any other type of digital advertising. Furthermore, not only do the listeners not mind hearing the ads, but they actually act on them.

The study was conducted of 2,000 United States individuals between 18 to 49 and it found that two-thirds of the listeners have actually acted on the ad they heard by either researching the product or actually purchasing it because of hearing it in the podcast. This particular study was commissioned by Wondery, which is a podcast startup by two former Fox executives.

One in three podcast listeners plan to increase their podcast consumption within the next six months according to this study. Additionally, the demographics of the listeners is so appealing to advertisers. One in five Americans between the ages of 18 to 49 listen to podcasts at least once a month, while one in three men ages 18 to 34 tune in. Most listeners have a college education, $100,000 or more in household income and they describe themselves as early adopters of technology.

Andrew Lipsman, VP of marketing and insights at comScore said, “This research provides strong evidence for why this sector is very attractive for advertisers. Not only do podcasts over-index on reaching some of the most valuable and hard-to-reach audiences, but they also put consumers in a mindset that’s favorable to ad receptivity.”

The study also found that many users said they felt more connected, intelligent and energized after they listen to the podcasts. Currently, Wondery only has one advertised, but others who have been in the business longer are seeing strong results. Radio host Ira Glass in an interview at South by Southwest said that the last few years have become a boom time for podcast advertising. And while he thinks that the bubble will likely burst eventually, CPMs earlier this spring were as high as $60 for his

There’s very little factual evidence that plays part in this article which is another reason this article is weak. In an article called, “The Efficacy of Television” by Gary Rudman, Rudman states that marketers are paying little attention to the marketing efforts made in television, he also adds to this statement by stating that because of their eagerness to advertise, they only focus on connecting with teens through media that is often used by the millennial generation. According to the GTR report in this article, “When it comes to options for advertising, traditional TV advertising resonates best for teens,” The reason for this is because most teens spend their majority of time at school, leaving very little time for internet access which makes the television top prize for advertisement; teens are constantly using and are often more likely to encounter advertisement on a television rather than surfing the web or having their focus on a internet game. “Teens are visually literate, and a good television ad will engage them. They remember funny, interesting, engaging, unique ads.

The South was firmly against the admission of California as a free state. Its main fear was the upset of power balance, as Calhoun contended, “the Senate, the last bastion of balance, would be stacked against the South by the end of the decade.” In addition, Meade argued that “[the slaveholding South] needed room to expand,” and that “California was ideal for slavery.” Despite their best efforts, the southerners’ arguments didn’t do much because of the fundamental gap between the North and the South on the issue of slavery; it was nearly impossible for one side to convince the other. In the end, Stephen Douglas put through the admission of California by “getting some men to miss a crucial vote and others to vote with the other side.”

Consider what kinds of advertising seem to influence you or the people you know. Ad agencies and product companies often argue that the main purpose of advertising is to inform consumers straightforwardly of available products. In fact, many types of advertisements, like classified ads in newspaper, are devoted primarily to delivering price information. Most consumers ads, however, merely tell stories about products without revealing much about prices. Since national advertisers generally choose to buy a one-page magazine ad or thirty second television spot to deliver their pitch, consumers get little information about how a product is made or how it compares with similar brands.

Shifting to the American market, where podcast listening has seen 44% of Americans ever listen to a podcast, 26% have listened to a podcast in the last month, and 17% have listened to a podcast in the last week, equating to an estimated 48 million total listeners. Of the 48 million who listen to podcasts on a weekly basis, 80% of those people listened to most, if not all, of the episode chosen. These listeners average seven different podcasts a week with just over 4 in 5 preferring to keep the podcast at a normal speed to hear all the content offered (Edison Research, 2018). The American podcast market currently has a handful of venture capital firms offering insight into the industry. However, Whitecap has a distinct characteristic to be leveraged against these well-established companies—it is a smaller, Canadian firm that offers a different culture and perspective.

Over the past week, I was tasked to choose between one of two articles that all of the incoming freshman at Union County College in preparation for the up and coming school year. This decision will forever change the way the incoming students will do before stereotyping a certain race, religion, or sexual preference. One of the articles I had to choose from was called, “Don’t Let Stereotypes Warp Your Judgments” By Robert L.

The articles also talk and teach that stereotyping is bad and

Opinion columns and articles could easily be mistaken for one another. Although they do have many similarities, it is their differences that makes them what they are. Opinion columns, just as stated in its name, is more biased (contains opinions of the writer) but does also include a few information here and there. What makes an opinion column biased is the writer’s or author’s direct use of adjectives and (I, myself, in my opinion), this is shown in Cohen’s opinion column where even the heading, “In Afghanistan, a war that has lost its purpose” displays some level of judgement. The fact that Cohen thinks the war is useless or without purpose is in a way stating an opinion.

Stereotyping is a way of categorizing certain groups of people or types of individuals with regards to gender, race, culture, religion etc. Stereotyping arises from prior assumptions due to influences by the media, history and personal experience. The statement: “To gain an understanding of the world we need to make use of stereotypes,” appears that stereotyping is required in order to really understand the world, and knowledge issues can be drawn from this statement: Does stereotyping prevent us from knowing someone truly and how are stereotypes created in the first place? One way to examine and discuss the knowledge issues is to look at different areas of knowledge, which in our case will be History and Human Science.
