Life before and after Television
Times were great when Television first establish in our living rooms globally since the
invention of television by John Logie Baird the father of television who pioneer new
ways to be entertain and receive. It happens in the year March 25th, 1925 in New York
and then came about the first Television Station in 1928, WRGB also know back then
WGY TV and where as in Japan as well in December 25th in 1926, Kenjiro Takayanagi
also invented a 40-line resolution television.
Other countries jump on board to invent and reinvent television such as the Russians
By 1940, John Logie Baird demonstrated colour television and in 1944, August 16 – 3D
TV (Stereoscopic) was also confirmed. These resulted millions of colour television sets
were sold globally to meet the demand. However, will that last?
In the beginning, also TV Channels or Terrestrial Television are very limited and only
licensed by the government. Then after many years later, television although had served
its purpose to the members of the public, internet television arrives without warning such
as Vimeo and YouTube gave a new rise and challenge to conventional television stations.
It saw a sudden fall of sales affecting viewership, sponsorship, advertiser’s and even as
much as decreased sales of CD and DVD sales resulting closure of CD and DVD rental
and retail stores across United States and around the globe.
What has happened? Has Television evolve? Yes indeed, in the 1990’s smart television
began to arrive in the living rooms with a wider range of capabilities.
Such skills resulted that no longer there is a reliance on television networks such a
MediaCorp, ABC, CNN or even FOX television stations are needed to provide content or
entertainment but rather it is the online or internet or dare say the new media is the new
wave to enhance the experience for the viewers daily 24/7 and it is customize within the
control of the customer or audience. Has the behavior change? Yes indeed and we will
observe the following chapter which is the Millennials and beyond that would impact the
new world as we see it.

According to the report by Marketing Charts.com and Nielsen Data for Q1 2011 to Q2
2016, Millennials attention span on conventional television has drop from 16.18 mins in
the 1st Quarter of 2016 to now in the 4th Quarter of 2016 is entirely redundant.

In the next update report by Forbes – Digital Democracy shows that Millennials from
ages 14 – 30 years are leading the way and growing very quickly and in demand for more
content.
The question that the industry raise was as follows:
1. Would not be better for Netflix, HBO Now, VUDU, Apple TV and even
AMAZON PRIME be the better content distributor rather the conventional
television stations?
2. According to Deloitte research on strategic risk management traditional models
are now switching to new landscapes such as tablets formats, smartphones and
even now the emerging holographic smartphones.
3. The death of DVD, Blue Rays and so forth tangible entertainment has come to its
end, but rather mobile entertainment is on the rise and in demand, television
stations ask themselves this question, we need to begin creating our content and
movies just the way HBO and Netflix has done and even more so looking at other
models like China, India, Israel and even Singapore. Will it work?

Generation Y or Millennials– Who are they?
Many say Generation Y are a nuisance and spices that should have been tamed, or should
they? Many needs to be corrected by the right politics on how population control and
market size do matter that eventually contributes to economic dynamics such increase of
wealth distribution and investments.
Generation Y or Millennials are those born between 1978 – 1987, and it is said they are
never an easy generation to culturally managed because it is believe that they possessed
self-centered, confident, growing up in a diverse school, work and play environment,
very well connected and networked, technically information savvy, very enthusiastic and
achievement oriented and said to be one of the high educated generation.
According to statistics, Millennials are raised by two income families with parents
usually at work over 90% of the time. Although communication is a challenge,
Millennials develop stronger relationships with their parents, with the support of
technology and the convenient methods it is made possible to keep in contact.
Parents from wealthy background and as well as those with the sense of responsibility
focus every moment of their child’s lives and having unprecedented and well-structured
supervision on education and activities.

MED110/2016
PAGE 7
Parents had their schedules extend to educational and physical activities and the need for
various and challenges.
Millennials are encouraged by their families that “You can do and make it” syndrome and
parents expectations of them is they do not get left behind and they can make it. On the
regular basis, the children often get rewards and praise based on merits or best efforts.
They were taught that they should be taken seriously and be heard.
Millennial do not believe in paying their dues, hard work is not their culture or policy,
they feel that they deserve to be heard and get it. Accomplishment drives them on their
own and they love to express their creativity and a strong desire for using their methods
and quick to go online for resources and even ask their friends and associates for
assistance. However, there is a high concern for the millennials, will shortcuts take them
far in life? Since there is no sense of morals or rule of law and everything goes mentality.
Although they are learning oriented, their aim and goal in life is self-centered.

MED110/2016
PAGE 8
This is an advantage for marketing networks given the devil’s advocate which I will later
explain in this research.
Millennials love to share and collaborate in rewards, love to be coach and mentored
online and continuously to look for access to any openings and prefer to complete any
tasks or adventure on their own for the benefit of the self-esteem. Moreover, Millennials
are very curious and asking and seeking answers is their forte, so teachers and adults
must be prepared to give answers and chances to make mistakes. This is also an added
value for TV networks to engage the Millennials by recreating engagement online, offline
and real time experience.
By beyond 2016 and further, Millennials can have more spending power then any other
age group in history.
Another additional benefit is crafting loyalty with Millennials when engaged with all the
information that is needed and relevant to them they will be diligent and loyal and they
feel it is important and they are also very accustom to new ideas, challenges, and
learning.

MED110/2016
PAGE 9
Lastly, the challenges of Millennials is they tend to change regularly over their personal
appetites in their life’s achievement, they will not follow or provide loyal blindly, the
company and or even entertainment needs to be socially responsible especially when
issues on corporate social responsibility is one of the top in their list, if they know that
you care about CSR they will remain loyal, and Millennials have not concerns about long
term careers and their savings.

The TV and Radio Industry Case Study
Now that we learn about Millennials and their behaviors and forward challenges, we will
now focus in this chapter about how television and radio industry adapt to the challenges
and reach out to the new generation, how it is outreach or evangelized in real time?
Many Television stations around the globe are now realizing the biggiest shift in all
history and it is still shaking. We now see the moving of industrial & knowledge age into
conceptual age. The media development in theoretical into the digital age has two phases
– Phases of communication and Convergence
Communication has four steps, they are Orality in verbal approach, Manuscripts which
produce for production to product, Print for newspapers and digital and electronic which
full design automated for digital audience.
As for the digital age coming from Analog to Digital – it follows through from Image,
Audio, Video, Information and Life. As Marshall McLuhan (1911-1980) said The
Medium is the Message.” Which is my point I am going to illustrate the next move for
the Industry is now using new methods to evangelize loyalty with Millennial Market.

Today’s world with the millennials they are thriving on all forms of mobile devices that
are neat and convenient to them. As the above illustrate how times have change and how
generation after generation had decide what is in and out.

In this chapter, I will update the following issues and the address of how and what must
be done to cultivate the present generation and the next. The question raise by the
industry are as follows which will cover in the following moments:
 What are the Media Industry Shifts? Why, When and Where Millennials
Choosing Media Platforms?
The Media Industry Shifts is constantly changing and it cannot afford not to be forward
thinking and moving. For example, Fox Sports, has recently presented a new method on
how Millennials would stay loyal and buy in stake holding viewership, how did they
archive it? Today information technologies and services are moving with the
telecommunications and broadcasting networks convergence also known as 360-degree
provision.

MED110/2016
PAGE 22
Let’s move on to the example of Fox Sports Channel App:
In this study of the above, the target group is 18 to 35 years, Those in college football and
basketball. The purpose is to encourage viewers to adopt Fox Sports Go App.
According to the data collected by Fox Sports, the following questions were asked:
How often do you watch sports?
82% says very often and Quite Often, and 18% says Sometimes and Rarely.
Are you aware that there’s an Fox Sports App available that you can access?
24% means that completely Unaware and 48% says that are Generally Unaware.

MED110/2016
PAGE 23
So how Fox Sports is going to reach out to the audience? How can they keep them
engage as well is the advertiser getting their worthwhile investment?
To do so, the first thing that Fox Sport’s team had to respond to important research they
offer to the advertiser’s the following:
Sponsorship Advertising will provide key features –
 Still Image advertising shown first on commercial break
 Show features such as streaming such as streaming games, highlights and updates.
 Ensure all foreseeable application is available on laptops, mobile, desktop and
newest holographic cell phone.
Why such features? Millennials attention span is short and they are kept captivated by
entertainment in high octane. Millennials can only have kept captivated only if there is a
constant action or unusual or out of the ordinary from 12secs to 2 mins and if the content
is captivating, it could command as long as 60 mins.

MED110/2016
PAGE 24
Secondly, The Script for In-Games Broadcast.
Announcer:
“Join us for all the excitement with the Fox Group app. Never miss a moment of the
game by streaming it to your mobile device with Fox Sports Go.”
“On the go, but don’t want to miss a moment of the game? Download the Fox Sports Go
app today and take the game with you everywhere you go.”
“Now we’ll show you some Next Gen Stats, brought to you by Fox Sport Go. Watch
games on Fox networks anytime, anywhere.”
In-Game Broadcast Promotions has a wide reach of 82% which watches the game and
with 10-15 second spot by commentators before/after commercial breaks or during non-
commercials timeouts.
The main strategy is posting two types of format – The first format is TV achors interact
with applictions in a quick 15-20 second spot during timeouts that do go to commercial
or back from commercial early.
The second-Hand Presentation is about having personalities talking about the app in the
background of a Fox Sports Go Graphic.
This way the above both presentations are kept captivating and exciting and keeping the
viewers on the toes and feeling weary.

MED110/2016
PAGE 25
The next strategy for Fox Sports Go App is Website Advertising.
Instead of hiding the link under the watch tab, make it its tab/link to the popup window.
This is important key feature so that it provides convenient access and easy to use and see
for the millennials. It also provides a wow factor according to Fox Executives almost
over 85% seek such services and expectations – what is the NEXT thing! Or WOW
factor.

MED110/2016
PAGE 26
Also, Fox Sport Go App had to expand additional
promotions on social media.
Why Social Media? Why the need to engage them on
social? There are three good reasons to this:
1. According to the reports by Starhub SmarTam
August 2015, 800,000 women ages from 18 – 35 watch
KBS World HD, VV Drama, CTI TV, TVBJ, TVB8, TVBS
Asia, E! Entertainment, HITS, FOX and Lifetime Channel
on mobile app and laptop daily in Singapore.
2. 700,000 watch Korean content according to
(Starhub SmarTam Sept 2015) report, City, VV Drama,
KBS World and One daily in Singapore.
3. Sports Market Savvy, according to (Starhub
SmarTam August 2015) – Over 648,000 viewers on Super
Sports 1,2,3,4 and Super Sports Arena Daily.
This information based on the Singapore markets
demonstrates how dynamic the Millennials react on how
information is entertain verses from the conventional television.
McDonalds Corporation, Mr. Padmanabhan Rangappa (Paddy) Vice President, APMEA
for Brand Development (2014-2015) All advertisements must built in for publicity for
television and mobile application must have three elements:
 An Emotional Human Revelation
 Relevant to the Category
 Leverage to Build and enhance the Brand
This is why McDonalds Corporation believe strongly in engagement with their customers
with social media platforms such as what Fox Sports Go App.

MED110/2016
PAGE 27
Here are statistics that the Millennials membership with Fox Sports App on social media
platforms:
Social Media:
Facebook: Fox Sport Go and Fox Sports Digital combined – 100,000
Instagram – 32,681 followers
Twitter – 98,400 to 1.75 million followers

MED110/2016
PAGE 28
So here are the findings we had learn from both Fox, Starhub and BBC
1. Millennials want easy access and all available resources of all sorts of platforms
for entertainment and information.
2. Millennials want the next wow factor, impressed, and forward, they are very
technology savvy and very knowledgeable, they want be challenged and outsmart.
3. Millennials are loyal only once their trust is earned through social responsibility
on the part of the content provider.

Finally, in this last chapter, we will discuss the following questions:
 How and What are the factors and causes?
To Answer these final questions, here is the update report on the How and Factors and
Causes of such changes:
The question is what is the drive and how and factors that consumers prefer to relay on
content on Social Media and New Media platforms using smart phones and applications?
According to findings here are as follows based on “The Media Insight Project” by
Associated Press, NORC at the University of Chicago and American Press Institute a
book published entitled: A New Understanding: What Makes People Trust and Relay on
News, April 2016 Edition.
To understand this, we must first understand what today’s consumers perceive Trust.
Below is the diagram of what consumer perceive the following:
Source: A New Understanding: What Makes People Trust and Relay on News, April 2016
The previous diagram that is displayed tell us that in the findings that trust and reliability
in a news product is broken down into various factors that publishers identify:
Column1
Adults who say accuracy is important reason they trust a new source 85%
Adults who say having the latest details is a critical reason they trust a news source 76%
Adults who value news reporting that concise and to the point 72%
Digital news consumers who believe it is vital ads do not interfere 63%
Political News consumers highly value experts and data in reporting 79%
Lifestyle news consumers who say it's important their source is entertaining 53%
Facebook new consumers with a lot of trust in the news they see there 12%

MED110/2016
PAGE 31
Consumers consider a publisher competent and worthy of trust vary depending on the
topic and study of finds. For example, how much the consumer values news about
politics, weather report, in depth report on politics for others the ease of use is of a higher
value and others being entertain is important.
The value of Trust in this study will show why is also important to the content creator.
Publisher’s must understands that it’s not only about journalistic aspiration, it is also
business imperative. Customers who placed higher premium on trust related products are
more engaged with news and more likely to pay for it, such as install new apps, or share
and promote news with family and friends.
The following findings in the diagram demonstrate the following points:
 Accuracy has a co-relationship with trust, eighty five percent of Americans say
that it is very important or extremely important that news organizations must get
the facts right higher than any other principal.
 The second value sought after is timeliness, according to the report three quarters
of the adults (76% percent) it is important that any news report must be up to date
with latest news and information.
 The third value sought after is clarity, 72% percent of the findings said it is very
important or important that the report is concise and gets to the point.
 The forth, Online New Media issues, according to studies it points out three
specific points and they are 1. Ads must not interfere with News voted by 63% of
the consumers, 2. 63% percent of the consumers say that it is important that the
Website or app loads runs fast, Thirdly - 3. All content works well on multiple
mobile platforms such as mobile phones voted by 60% percent of the consumer.
 1 in 3 voted that it is important for digital resources allow people to comment on
news.
 The latest discoveries in this finding in 2016, is also reasons why people trust and
rely on a news source is because it varies on the topic and relevance, example –
people say that expert opinion and data are important reason being is because it is
to source for news on domestic data than lifestyle news which is 75 percent versus
48 percent.
 Millennial Consumers want their source to be concise and get to the point for
domestic politics (80 percent vote), for sports (61 percent vote).

MED110/2016
PAGE 32
 Followers of traffic and weather voted 72 percent that it is very important such
content presents well on mobile applications than consumers of domestic news
which 55 percent of the votes.
 Millennials who use social media heavily usually are highly skeptical of news
encounter on networks. 12 percent who obtain news from Facebook for example
say they trust a lot or a great deal of it. And 23% on the high end say they have
great trust in news they obtain from LinkedIn.

MED110/2016
PAGE 33
 What are the Major content providers doing? What are the solutions, steps and
measures taken by players such as HBO, CNN, Disney, Singtel, Starhub or
Toggle doing? What does it mean for players for even telecom companies buying
up content providers?
Today Major players are providing new products that will engage with the millennials
such as HBO, CNN, Media Corp and Starhub in three points:
1. New platforms open new doors, and new ways of engagement such as mobile
apps, and loyalty program re-created that could not be done in the past and now it
could such as advertising and promotions of a new season of a TV series by
MediaCorp, they are able to organized live meet and greet with actors and also on
the app it has exclusive how the episode is made and character follow-up which
cannot be done on air time.

MED110/2016
PAGE 34
2. Television Stations are recreating their own platforms such as TOGGLE
Singapore very own New Media Station that creates content and organizes its own
live events and community engagement. Examples display below.

MED110/2016

MED110/2016
PAGE 36
3. Even radio stations has gone digital to engage with consumers 24/7. Not just
radio, but also Radio TV BLOGS with fun filled interviews with celebrities and
even the man on the street. Branding also becomes a strong element for radio and
television as it recreates a new world for audiences to relate and coverage into
participation such marathons, games and even a call for comments and surveys in
exchange and enhance loyalty program call ME Club Online.

MED110/2016
PAGE 37
Finally, what is happening today? What is the trends for Television and Radio Stations?
What is really next for them and the convergence with Telecommunications companies
meager with content providers? What is the benefit?
According to the recent global reports, (from Korea) Telecom firms buying content
providers– Korea Herald, Saturday August 12, 2006 by Hwang Si-young reported
Hanarotelecom Inc. is purchasing content providers hahTV service which has 30,000
subscribers’. Hana TV offers High Definition Video Content along with broadband and
telephony services that attracts thousands of subscribers in just 20 days after the launch.
It boasts over 22,000 video on demand content offered by over fifth content providers at
home or abroad.
Content is king says Korea Telecom spokesman, KT with wireless affiliate KTF Co has
bought 51 percent share with the largest film making company Sidus FNH Corp for
USD$29 Million in September 2005, and the KT is also the largest shareholder of
satellite Skylife.
According to Experts, trends of convergence services combining broadcasting and
telecom will continue to capture market share and loyalty for the long term.
In a news report on Financial Times in November 29, 2014 by Daniel Thomas, Henry
Mance and David Crow entitled: Telecoms groups seek share of TV Limelight:
Producing content has become a new battleground among the groups that provide internet
connections.
Even in Europe for example, in the report FT said Vodafone’s is offering TV to UK
customers which means they will aquire content providers as the most common sense to
do financially, according to Michael Goodman a digital media expert at Strategy
Analytics has this to say: Content is the way for telecommunications company to
compete with the others in the market and with new players such as Netflix and Youtube.
So we need three strong pillars – Content, Distribution and Device. And when content
internet providers buy content they have a control of at least two out of three.

MED110/2016
PAGE 38
Today in the United States, Comcast has bought over NBC Universal in 2009, which
creates both a marriage of content creation and distribution in one facility.
May 2009, AT&T paid $48.5 billion for DirecTV because it has holding rights for
Sunday NFL games for Television and mobile devices.
But why the convergence and what does this mean for both the service provider and
consumer?
1. Service providers are seeking to enlarge their market share or they will see
themselves irrelevant which resulting closure and losing to new players, so to stay
ahead and control, it seeks to buy their competition and embrace for control and
profit.
2. For the consumer, it will see better performance on their applications and may or
may not result less expensive service fees for data. But they will have a wider
range of content and more flexible options.
3. Service providers and Consumers will enable to converge interests anytime,
anywhere with advance mobile entertainment in real time 24/7.

MED110/2016
PAGE 39
Recommendations:
Finally, to conclude, Rupert Murdoch has this to say quote in Wired, July 2006
“To Find Something comparable, you have to go back 500 years to the printing press, the
birth of mass media. Technology is shifting power away from the editors, the publishers,
the establishment, the media elite. Now it’s the people who are taking control”.
Here are three recommendations for the industry who wants to expand in content
provision or content distribution:
1. Create a 360-degree solution which will enabled for the consumer to access easily
and obtain easily 24/7. Application must be cool, never before done and wow
factor. Never Stay complacent, always upgrade one or twice year for your
formats.
2. Industry must always embrace change, and love change, you must create and
invest along with the collaboration with lifestyle and other stakeholders that
would share the same vision and interests in your network as survival and their
financial investment is always key.
3. Millennials and the future generation are your customers and they want to be
treated as a very important customer and wants to be engage to gain their loyalty
and trust.
