*NOTE: There were two remarkable programs Wednesday which deserve special mention. CBS presented the season finale of ‘Code Black’ and NBC presented ‘Chicago PD’. Both handled topical issues flawlessly with extremely well written episodes and stellar acting. While ‘Code Black’ handled the issue of an ER in crisis following a life taking accident during a Presidential candidate debate, wrapping up a first season (or is it the last) by resolving all of the personal issues of the staff, ‘Chicago PD’ gave us all a lesson in handling the delicate race issue in the Windy City at a time when this topic is at a critical stage in the nation’s third largest city or as many of us know it as the Capitol of the Midwest. Both program delivered Emmy Award winning efforts and gave us the promise of hope of what television could be.

Today In Communication History
On this date in 1950, ‘Your Show of Shows’ debuted on NBC.
NOTE: We have entered a new era in screen ratings. Nielsen is expanding its sample of TV viewers to include new
homes with meters that record the channel being watched—but not the demographics of the people watching. That will be estimated using data modeling and an algorithm Nielsen has developed, and added to the current sample that does include people meters that measure demos. The Panel Expansion (NPX), in which 12,900 households have been added to the national sample, is at the center of this change. The household ratings in these homes are measured by meters on each television in the home, while the demographic ratings in these homes will be assigned by Nielsen using a statistical algorithm. This is the first time since 1987 that homes in the national sample are not equipped with PeopleMeters, which measure both the program viewed and the people watching it.
February Sweeps Period runs from February 4, 2016 and ends March 2, 2016.

Who In The World Is Spending What, Where, When, Why?
Nielsen has come out with a new study that gives us a peak into who is spending what, where, when and why. The Question is: Once all of us have covered our essential living expenses, how do we spend the money left over? Whether we stash our spare cash for retirement, invest it to try and make more, or purchase new products, strategies differ around the world. In the fourth quarter of 2015, saving and investing intention levels were highest in Asia-Pacific (61% and 37%, respectively), as was spending on holidays/vacations (44%), new clothes (41%), new technology (34%) and out-of-home entertainment (34%). Some spending/saving strategies took on greater importance in certain regions. For example, intentions to pay off debts were a priority in Latin America (35%), and intentions to spend on home improvement projects showed the highest regional percentage in North America (25%). Plans to save for retirement were highest in Asia-Pacific and North America at 16% each.
Nearly one-quarter of Middle East/Africa respondents (23%) said they had no spare cash in the fourth quarter—the highest-level regionally, followed by 18% in Europe, 17% in Latin America, 11% in North America and 5% in Asia-Pacific.
For those who intend to change spending activities in order to save, the top strategy in every region except the Middle East/Africa was spending less on new clothes (cutting down on take-away meals edged out new clothes spending in the Middle East/Africa by just one percentage point). Reducing take-away meals was also one of the top three savings strategies in North America. Cutting back on out-of-home entertainment was one of the top three savings strategies in every region, with the highest level reported in Latin America (53%). Saving on gas and electricity was one of the top three strategies in Asia-Pacific and Latin America, while in Europe, switching to cheaper grocery brands was a top approach, exceeding the global average by 15 percentage points (49%).
Of the various ways consumers cut back, Latin American respondents showed the highest spending-restraint levels for seven of 15 saving strategies. Saving on gas and electricity was particularly high in the region, exceeding the global average by 12 percentage points (50%). Europe showed the highest spending restraint for five saving strategies.
Other findings include:
◉ Global consumer confidence declined two points from the third quarter to 97 – the same score as the start of the year.
◉ In the U.S., the percentage who believed they were in recession fell to 47%, the lowest level seen since Nielsen began tracking recessionary sentiment in 2008.
◉ Fears about terrorism escalated to new highs in North America and Europe.
◉ Consumer confidence in the third quarter increased in 26 of 61 markets measured by Nielsen (43% of measured markets).
◉ Consumer confidence in all three sub-Saharan markets measured by Nielsen (Nigeria, Ghana and Kenya) finished 2015 above an index score of 100.

Where Do Hispanics Like To Go On The Web?
From the editors off MediaLife (022316), when it comes to the web, Hispanics seek out entertainment. They want music, TV shows, beauty advice and sports scores. With a few exceptions, their top online destinations are devoted to amusing and distracting them. That’s based on a list of most popular sites among Hispanic web surfers provided by SimilarWeb, a website traffic tracking company.
The top site, musica.com, generated more than 1 billion visits last year, with Univision.com a distant second at 648 million. Spanish-language newspaper La Nacion placed third with 617 million visits, and ehowenespanol.com, the Spanish-language version of the DIY site eHow, ranked fourth with 517.9 million. Those two were the only hard news or practical sites among the top 10. From lifestyle site Batanga.com to ESPNDeportes.com, the rest are entertainment sites. Four of the top 10 are TV-related. Three of the top 20 are women’s beauty and lifestyle sites, and three are sports-focused.
Hispanics are more likely than the average American to own a smartphone, and so as you’d expect, a huge amount of Hispanics’ web traffic comes from mobile. Five of the top 10 sites get more than half their traffic from mobile devices. Twelve of the top 75 sites get at least three-quarters of their traffic from mobile devices. In fact, Spanish-language paper Mundo Hispanico gets 96% of its traffic from mobile.
Mobile/Digital News
Mobile Now Drives 56% Of Consumer Traffic To Sites
In an article by Greg Sterling in MarketingLand (022316), SimilarWeb’s State of Mobile Web US 2015 report, roughly 56% of consumer traffic to the leading US websites is now from mobile devices. Mobile traffic in Q4 was roughly 49%, on average, for these top sites. The report is based on the company’s analysis of the top 10,000 US websites in 24 categories. It does not include app usage. The following are the top 10 mobile traffic site categories, with the top five are receiving at least 60% of their traffic from mobile devices.

RetailPositive™ Centering On Social Media
One of the components in the retail and brand strategy developed by CNA|SOPHIS called RetailPositive™, centers on the creation, development, execution and continual maintenance of social media, pressing quality content into the flow of social conversation designed to engage. This creation of ‘engagement’ provides a key to the multiple page strategy of RetailPositive™. Most clients have a multiple amount of social media pages. For instance, with Facebook, retailers and/or brand do not have a single audience. They have many.
In an effort to maximize their Facebook reach, CNA|SOPHIS has created elaborate webs of Facebook pages for not only their main verticals but the long tail of other topics as well. Most clients have many pages, for some as many as 90 Facebook pages, each dedicated to specific topics such as specific location of brick & mortar stores, in this time of the year, fashion in spring, bedding for a better night’s sleep and many many more. Most of these match up with existing verticals, but the retailer/brand is also working with social-only brands such as ‘BFF’ and more. It is all about getting interested people who are want to find out about a single topic to begin dialog between them and the retailer/brand. Each page is developed to center on a single topic.
This is a tool that lets a retailer/brand cultivate a more engaged audience. It is all about reaching more people and developing a relationship with them in order for them to engage with you. It is not about ‘Likes’. It is all about engagement. CNA|SOPHIS had determined that ‘engagement’ is the key to developing a sales prospect. And it must be working because they have increase both traffic and sales 5.0% to 13.5% with 13 weeks of RetailPositive™ activation for their clients.

67% of consumers are more likely to trust a brand when it’s easy to review its products or services. Friends and family are the most trusted source of social or digital content, followed by academic experts and companies a consumer already uses. trust changes the behavior of your customers and stakeholders. Being transparent and open is not just good practice, it is essential. (Per the Edelman Trust Barometer)
eMail Research
Early Mornings Through Noon Peak eMail Opens
For all the pundants who proclaim they know everything about everything, here is one they may have missed. If you want to reach your potential customer, a good time to use email is between 4A and Noon. So sayeth the Experian Marketing Services who have come out with a new report.
With retailers and brands continuing to increase their email volume (4Q 2015 found a 23.4% year-over-year increase)., the report also nots that Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays saw a higher share of transactions, continuing a theme seen over the past couple of years as early mornings saw a comparatively large share of transactions.

Social Media News
SI Swimsuit Edition Draws Big Social
Sports Illustrated made history this week with the release of its annual Swimsuit edition cover—or, more accurately, covers.
For the first time, the Time Inc. brand produced multiple covers—three, to be exact—for its top-selling issue of the year. Along with model Hailey Clauson, the other two covers feature Ashley Graham, the first size 16 model to be featured on the cover, and UFC star Ronda Rousey. Considering Rousey’s star power, it may not come as a surprise that the former bantamweight champion scored a knockout on social media. According to data from social media analytics firm NetBase provided to Adweek by digital marketing agency PM Digital, Rousey’s cover accounted for 61 percent of the social conversation around the issue since the release of the covers Monday night.
Rousey’s cover attracted 154,879 mentions across Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, Instagram (hashtag mentions only for Instagram) and YouTube. That was nearly double the amount of mentions for Graham (86,090), who accounted for 34 percent of the total conversation. Clauson’s cover only grabbed 5 percent of the conversation with 13,662 mentions.
