Media
• In the current media context, the forms of
media used by organizations to communicate
with publics is changing.
• Fundamentally, though, they are still:
– Owned Media
– Paid Media
– Earned Media
– Interestingly, social media can fall into all three
categories…
Changing Landscape
• Media consumption has increased, but it is
fundamentally different.
– Consumption habits have evolved from “pre-defined” and “mass appeal”
– where audiences made appointments to watch their favourite shows on
TV – to include “pre-selected” and “long tail or niche content” – on-
demand options that allow media to be consumed anytime, anywhere.
• In the last decade, media consumption by 8-18 year
olds increased by almost 80 minutes to 458 per day.
Television viewing is up slightly, but teenagers are
simultaneously texting to friends, updating their
Facebook status, and tweeting.
• This continuous partial attention – more places, more sources,
more social – is a “global” (global and local) phenomenon.
• The proliferation of this new social aspect of media means
that every kind of media has a role to play. It is no longer the
story of “or” – meaning, which channel to use - but is the
story of “and” – which combination of channels to use.
• The average person is consuming six to eight sources of
information daily and needs to hear or read something three
to five times in different places from various sources before
believing it.
