comScore and Media Contacts provide insights on different online viewer segments

March 3, 2023 By Leo Blanco

comScore and interactive media network Media Contacts have developed a study to understand the consumption habits and mindsets of Internet video users as they relate to online video, TV, and advertising and content across both media.

The survey shows 3 different types of online video viewers in terms of their consumption levels (see table below).

Though YouTube once again emerged as the leader in all segments of online video viewers with 54% reach, their habits are very different from one another.

For instance, the Heavy Viewers are into niche video-sharing sites such as Ouou.com, MegaVideo.com and Youku.com. On the other hand, Moderate Viewers are addicted to specific video contents on broadcast TV sites such as WorldNow (ABC), CBS TV Local, ABC Daytime, Scripps TV, and CMT.

As expected, the Light Viewers simply focus on general video-sharing sites such as YouTube. What is more interesting is that this group is the most TV consumers, watching 13 hours per week.

What the report fails to highlight or intentionally omits are the WHYs of these different behaviors.

iReport.com: CNN’s portal for citizen journalists

February 27, 2023 By Leo Blanco

cnn-logo.gifRealizing the power and penchant of the average citizens to gossips and other newsworthy topics, CNN will be launching a new video-sharing site called iReport.com as the hub of user-generated news.

Though the site is still under construction, Reuters claims it has the same look and feel of YouTube and other popular video-sharing sites. Users can easily upload audio clips, photos, and videos.

iReport.com is very different to the ever stringent CNN because users are allowed to submit whatever topic they have in mind. Currently, CNN holds more than 100,000 news-related videos and photos from citizen journalists but less than 10% were published on the site. With this new portal, the community and not the editors will decide what the news is. Still, CNN will monitor and remove contents considered offensive or inappropriate.

But, CNN will make extra effort to clear that news shown in iReport.com do not reflect its editorial views.
