Rating the audience London : Bloomsbury Academic, 2011. 1 online resource (224 p.) 20111011 Why the Ratings are Important; The Convention; The Panel and the Survey; The Audit; The Technologies of Counting; The Ratings Provider; The Networks (and Broadcasters); Advertisers and Planners; The Audience; The Critics; The Future of Ratings This is an accessible introduction to the history, machinery and impact of audience ratings. It is a comparative account, demonstrating new insights into the complexity of audience participation and the methodological problems associated with assessing ratings. Knowing, measuring and understanding media audiences have become a multi-billion dollar business. But the convention that underpins that business, audience ratings, is in crisis. Rating the Audience is the first book to show why and how audience ratings research became a convention , an agreement, and the first to interrogate the ways that agreement is now under threat. Taking a historical approach, the book looks at the evolution of audience ratings and the survey industry. It goes on to analyse today's media environment, looking at the role of the internet and the increased difficulties it presents for measuring audiences. The book covers all the major players and controversies, such as Facebook's privacy rulings and Google's alliance with Nielsen. Offering the first real comparative study, it will be critical for media students and professionals. Mass media Ratings and rankings. Mass media Audiences.
