14 where does PTV fit in?

15 Prime Household Rankings (Jan thru Oct 27 for selected cable/broadcast nets) Despite Y-O-Y slippage, the “Big Four” excel in household ratings Fox News is only Cable web to surpass PTV bucket More mature cable nets form the leading tier followed by later-launched niche services

16 Who’s the Target? Median Prime Time age for selected cable/broadcast nets, YTD 2010 The trades focus on 18-49s or adults because that’s what Madison Ave is buying. Should that make it PTV’s audience too? PTV ranks: #12 for P18-34 #10 for P35-54 #6 for P55+ Where should PTV focus, especially as the U.S. population shifts to the right (age-wise)?
