Multi-year deal includes Local TV and OTT measurement for stations across the country
Nielsen's Local TV measurement backed by Big Data + Panel
NEW YORK - February 12, 2025 Nielsen, a global leader in audience measurement, data and analytics, and Graham Media Group have announced a multi-year agreement for Local TV measurement across their six markets (Detroit, Houston, San Antonio, Orlando, Jacksonville, Roanoke). The expanded agreement also includes Scarborough, which provides consumer insights that connect the dots between media consumption and local brands, retailers, and consumer behaviors. New to the agreement is Nielsen's Local Over the Top (OTT) measurement, which captures incremental impressions to Local TV and reports them with comparable metrics for the benefit of buyers, sellers, and content producers, and Digital Content Ratings (DCR), which Graham Media will use in their Jacksonville market. Together, these solutions will provide Graham Media stations with compelling cross-platform insights to drive new content & revenue opportunities.
Nielsen's Local TV measurement delivers the most comprehensive view of Local TV audiences, leveraging direct measurement of Live, Local content streamed to mobile devices via Digital in TV Ratings technology, plus traditional Over-the-Air television households combined with thousands of cable and satellite households from Nielsen's Big Data providers.
Nielsen is proud to expand our partnership with Graham Media Group and deliver the most comprehensive view of their Local Linear, Digital, and Streaming audiences, said Paul LeFort, Managing Director of Nielsen's Local TV business. Our commitment to innovation, including enhanced insights backed by our comprehensive Big Data + Panel Local TV measurement, empowers broadcasters, publishers & advertisers with accurate, representative & cross-platform measurement to drive the Local TV business forward.
