In these hectic early weeks of the crisis, I thought that it would be helpful to take some time out to reflect on the seismic changes that our industry is experiencing.
Veteran consultant Ed Hersh joins me in a pod-versation to provide a cautious snapshot for our colleagues.
We focus on three questions:
- Is there a shift in the video preferences of American viewers?
- How are network programmers responding?
- How can producers prepare for the eventual recovery?
