| | rantnrave:// My quarterly posting of this video in a time of such great division... Where do you complain that TWITTER is down when Twitter is down? #meta... My nieces and nephew are antidotes... The TV industry may be ecstatic about the 2016 upfronts, but it would be a mistake to view the TV ad market as resilient – let alone a growth business.

REDEF MediaORIGINAL: "Brightest Before the Dark: The Impending Fall of TV Ad Spend"... Been running into a lot of GREG MARMALARD-types online in response to my #NeverTrump stances. You see, I have to fight the urge to answer the nutters... Decency and morality over my wallet... Voting Matters... Fact-checking... Have you checked out FashionREDEF, MusicREDEF, SportsREDEF and TechREDEF? All of REDEF.com and newsletters... Happy Birthday to ANDREW HAMPP. | | | - Jason Hirschhorn, curator |
