3-D TV Falls Flat: ESPN to Kill 3-D Broadcasts
Associated Press | Jun 14, 2013
NEW YORK - ESPN's decision to shut down its 3-D channel by the end of the year is the latest sign the format won't revolutionize entertainment as the industry once hoped. Troubling signs for 3-D have been on the horizon for the last year or so. ESPN 3D's audience ratings were below The Nielsen Co.'s measurable threshold, and in March, the Motion Picture Association said box office revenue for 3-D showings in the U.S. and Canada held steady at $1.8 billion in 2012. The number of 3-D films released in the period dropped by 20 percent. "The ESPN decision is a sign that the 3-D ecosystem is not healthy," said Laura Martin, an analyst with in... more
Executives Admit That TV Isn't Everywhere Yet
Associated Press | Jun 12, 2013
WASHINGTON - TV was supposed to be everywhere by now - watchable anytime, anywhere, on your smartphone or tablet. But four years into the industry's effort, network executives readily admit: TV isn't everywhere. The promise of "TV Everywhere" has been a key strategy in the cable and satellite TV industry's fight to retain customers in the face of challenges from online video providers such as Netflix. With TV Everywhere, customers who pay for packages with hundreds of television channels are supposed to be able to watch them on mobile devices and computers as well for no extra charge. That perk is meant to make pay TV packages seem more ... more
Cable Operators Buff Up Guides for Internet Age
Associated Press | Jun 10, 2013
WASHINGTON - After years of making money providing Internet service, cable TV companies are now tapping the power of the Internet to improve clunky program guides that are a relic of the 1990s. Over the past year or so, Comcast Corp., Cablevision Systems Corp. and other cable providers have introduced new program guides on television set-top boxes. These improved guides act more like websites, making it easier to find movies, live TV shows and on-demand video. It's important progress for cable TV companies, which are often criticized for providing hundreds of channels that customers don't watch. Making shows easier to find helps them jus... more
Fill-In Host Oliver to Keep the News Fake, Funny
Associated Press | Jun 10, 2013
NEW YORK - Since 2006, John Oliver has proved his mettle as a phony journalist on "The Daily Show." Serving in numerous "reporting" roles on the spoof newscast, but chiefly as senior British correspondent, the Birmingham, England-born Oliver is schoolboyish, poker-faced and emphatic in explaining America to itself (whether the topic is Occupy Wall Street, gun control or the N-word), satisfied that his accent from across the pond makes anything he says, however off-kilter, sound authoritative here in the New World. Recently Oliver said a simple "yes" to his boss, Jon Stewart, who means to take the summer off to make a feature film and ask... more
Glenn Beck Says He Regrets Dividing People
Associated Press | Jun 07, 2013
NEW YORK - A reflective Glenn Beck said Thursday he regrets that some of his fiery opinions caused division in the country over the last several years. He wasn't fully aware of the perilous times and people "at each other's throats," said the conservative radio host, who accepted a First Amendment award from Talkers magazine, the trade publication for his industry. The magazine's publisher, Michael Harrison, hailed Beck as "a once-in-a-generation performer in the broadcast arts." Beck said he was puzzled by activists who organize boycotts of people who say things they disagree with. Beck's popular show on Fox News Channel ended in 2011 ... more
